Check-in worked without problems and the staff was very friendly. The bed was comfortable and clean. I enjoyed the breakfast with soup. My luggage could be stored on the day of arrival and departure. Good value for money and good location near Asakusa shrine.

The room was quite small for the number of people sleeping there. It was not as clean as in other hostels I visited in Japan, but still acceptable.

Convenient to the Asakusa train station, including breakfast, social interaction with guests. Good and pleasant staff speaks English.

We had big luggage to take to the Narita airport. To get to Narita airport, you need to go to Shinjuku station to get to Narita Airport. Best to get your luggage 1 day ahead of time this is by either you organize luggage pick up/delivery with the accommodation staff (this may cost you more) or you organize yourself with the airport company service to pick up your luggage and deliver your next destination accommodation or deliver to Narita airport. This is because the Shinjuku station for example has no elevator due to maybe I guess construction work. You will end up taking the luggage through to the long steps and this can be stressful and painful.

You can't possibly beat the position, slap bang in the middle of Asakusa, IMHO one of the best neighbourhoods to stay at. Fairly large beds with curtains, six floors with elevator, common area feels lively to hang around/work from remote w lounge music in the background, side by side to a kitchen area which tho not ample is well stocked with the usual deal of crockery&cutlery.

Breakfast is included however a tad poor, sliced bread&marmalade/margarine, tea/milk/coffee (plus a bonus veg soup) and that's it; at least a couple cereals/yoghurt addition would make it nice.

Excellent location in Asakusa. Staff were very friendly, and introduced Japanese new year traditions to us, since that was when we stayed there. The hostel hosts many events, such as a samurai performance, and each night we stayed there were guests who offered to cook dishes from their home country for a very small fee. The common room was nice, the facilities were well maintained, the room was quiet and clean, and the beds were about as comfortable as you can hope for from a hostel.

It's a hostel in a popular area in Tokyo, so you're going to have to pay quite a bit. I think this hostel is well worth the price, though!

The location is perfect! I travelled with my parents, they are señor citizens; but they are very happy with the area. This is what you will find from Sakura Hostel's location: Nearby Stations (6 to 10-minute walk) Don Quijote (5-minute walk) Shopping area (4-minute walk) Sensoji Temple (3-minute walk) OK Grocery (2-minute walk) Famous Ramen Specialty which we really loved (2-minute walk) Familymart / Lawson (1-minute walk)

the location of the smoking pod is quite off, I hope they could move it outside or elsewhere. I can smell the cigarette smoke while eating in the shared kitchen.

The location was fantastic. It felt very safe, even at night, as Sensō-ji always has visitors. The staff were friendly. Breakfast included unlimited toast with butter/jam/marmalade, teas, coffee, and milk. The dorm room was spacious. The showers were great. It was great value for the price.

The WiFi reception was very patchy, particularly upstairs. The light above each bed was incredibly bright, so it felt rude to be using it late at night. The charging port was attached to the bottom of the light (which was attached to the wall), so only very small adapters could fit in the space without hitting the wall.

Really great location in a very popular part of town, close to great places to eat, drink and try all kinds of things. Bunk beds are fine, rooms are kept clean and the staff does a good job maintaining the bathrooms. The breakfast is super basic (literally bread with margarine and some jams), but the soup they offer with it is very tasty. It's short on any kind of protein, but has good flavor.

I was initially booked into a room in the basement with 8 beds and I think had I not immediately gone back to the front desk and requested a different room, my view on this place would be totally different. It smelled bad down there and was wet. The guy working at the front desk was rude and curt. None of the staff spoke English perfectly, but the women were kind and worked to solve problems. The man seemed overworked and underpaid and generally was uninterested in being helpful.

I had been in Tokyo for 2 weeks at 5 different hostels. This is the first one where I made friends with other travellers. The hostel seems to specialise in bringing people together. It attracts friendly travellers and the common room is spacious enough to let people get to know each other. Clean and handy facilities. Friendly senior staff, though the trainees need some more help. Lots of good bars and little things to do around the area.

There's a few trainees at the moment who seem to be left on their own a little bit. I think they need some more help before they're left entirely alone because some things at reception or restocking get a little missed.

I stayed here before. The latest experience was much much better. The common room was less noisier. This time I did not have people that treat common room like their personal frat house. I was able to work on my laptop peacefully. I guess it depends on luck. The facilities were great and clean as usual (beds, room, bathroom, etc). No complains.

Just a small nitpick. Way too many people came to breakfast around same time. Coffee ran out fast and had to wait a while for new ones to brew. Its a testament to how popular this hostel is. Best to store your own drink the night before in fridge.

Great location. For those who like to visit temple, here is a really big one. Shops selling souvernirs are everywhere. Food are also great. Dorm room is big enough for 8 persons.

Unlike Osaka Picnic Hostel(a few meters from Sakuragawa Station), this hostel would let people to walk into the room wearing the same shoes you walk on the street which is not good, especially during this pandemic.
