The bunk beds were especially spacious. If you took the top bunk. The facilities were clean. The reception was extremely helpful. One of the places you'd want to visit in Hiroshima is Miyajima (Deer Island). If you didn't get the JR pass, you can buy a cheap day pass at the front. You can use it for both the ferry (Not the JR) and the rail cars. The lounge area is spacious and homey. Met some wonderful people here. The hostel is close to a railcar stop, and it's really close to the Peace Park.

This is the only place that served their coffee in drip form. Most people don't really know how to prepare their coffee in this fashion anymore (haha). Probably would be best to replace the coffee maker with a jar of instant coffee.

Friendly, helpful staff who speak English. Dorm room size was OK and the futon mattress was comfortable. Good wifi. Free filter coffee was good. Kitchen well stocked and equipped for cooking simple meals. Good location near the peace museum and main roads for public transport. Easy walking distance to supermarkets and a fruit/veg shop. Shared bathroom and toilets were generally clean (always depends on other guests), just the weird showers that are push-button operated so you have to keep pressing it for water. Good lounge area with various books to read & chill. Luggage storage available.

The smoking area is directly in front of the hostel and the cigarette smoke & smell can very easily drift into the lounge dining area.

The room and the facilities were excellent, quite comfortable with lots of space and amenities and perfectly clean. Ryu at reception is a great guy to talk to and he knows his way around Hiroshima, he helped us to plan our visit to the city and was always there whenever we needed anything. They have a locked room for luggage where you can safely store it and the location is great, overall a perfect stay!

As in many Japanese houses, sound tends to leak into the room, but guess what, they give you free earplugs!

I loved everything about this place! Great location, central but very quiet, supermarkets and restaurants really close by. Many streetcar stops were just around the corner, so we could go to the station and also to Miyajima island directly. The room was very spacious and comfortable, the shared facilities were always clean and never crowded. The staff was very friendly and helpful, he gave us good tips on what to see and how to move around the city!

Very comfortable, traditional Japanese room. Futon was very nice to sleep on. The room was big, plenty of space to have bags and sit at the low table. Lovely big window with light. Shared bathrooms were clean. We didn't use the kitchen or lounge area. Well located, near the Peace Park and easy to catch trams nearby. Staff were friendly and helpful.

A little noisy but to be expected in a hostel. Quite steep stairs to carry luggage up and down.

Excellent value for money and amazing location very close to the Atomic Dome, peace museum and various public transport stops. Our room was of a good size and had everything we needed. Free tea and coffee in the kitchen was also a welcome touch.

The walls were very thin, meaning you can hear other guests' conversations in different rooms. This was not a big problem during our stay but may be for others if other guests are less considerate.

Location is less than 10 minutes to the leave park. Common areas are clean and well kept.

Bed is a little stiff even for a futon, and there are only stairs so be aware if you have any mobility issues. If you have large luggage I would keep it in the luggage room on the first floor and bring up what you need. Only real criticism is that I am not a fan of how the shower needs to be restarted every 30 seconds, but that is a minor complaint.

Good quality for the price, the common spaces and our room were clean, a lot of infos about what to do and where to eat were displayed at the entrance. Luggage storage and laundry service available.

Our room did not smell so good, the building is not new and probably the usage and the humidity contributed in time to the smell. Apart from that our room and the common bathrooms were clean, the space was limited but comparable to standard japanese rooms

Location was great - less than a 10 minute walk from the Peace Park. We also came in from Miyajima which meant we could get off the tram just round the corner (the main train station is quite a walk!). Private rooms were really nice, much more spacious than most places we stayed in Japan so we were really impressed. Could also rent towels for 100 yen which is mega cheap.

Nothing!

The bunk bed space is bigger than other hostels I've stayed at, and even if there is someone on the bed above you, the partition is thick enough that the sound of their movement is muffled. The staff are friendly, wonderful, and can speak English. They have rental bikes too!

The only thing I didn't like was that it could be crowded during shower and prep time in the morning or evening, since there are only two toilets and two showers on each floor. But manageable.
