I wouldn't recommend this hostel, even though it's very new and in very clean conditions. I visited Fukuoaka during the corona virus outbreak, and as a person with Asian/Chinese descent I feel like the check-in staff were extremely unfriendly to me. Further, I was booked into the shared dormitory, which I would strongly suggest avoiding because there's around 18 people couped into one room. Would recommend another place where there's less people in a room (eg. 8 room dorm) because there are only 4 showers for the whole floor, so essentially sharing this with 60+ people. Overall, new hostel but one of the more unpleasant experiences I encountered in Japan (which is a very friendly country normally).

Good Experience Staying

Posted 25 May 2019 on Hotels
place look awesome and cool. The vibe is great, I normally grab one or two drinks while waiting for my friends. Price wise is awesome too, I travel with 5 friend so we took the whole room with 3 bunk bed. If you travel individual might have some hassle with other traveler and required to be more considerate. Overall for me was a good stay for a group. Location was is very awesome too as it just around the corner with Canal City.

The location of the hostel is the best. I think the room size is just nice as I was staying in the 16 mixed dormitory. Be aware that check in is only 4pm onwards but no worries as everything is just a walking distance to keep you occupied before checking in.

Very clean and well attended. A bit loud on the first night but that was the fault of other guests, and it was a holiday in Japan so cannot blame them!

Location was great! You can walk to a lot of key places / must visit areas in Fukuoka. Bed was also spacious, bathrooms clean and dry most times. Service is a possible are of improvement -- I was offered new sheets but never actually got them when I confirmed.
