    The wifi didn't work very well and even shut down during nearly a day

    Kind staff, you can store your luggage before and after check in-out, really good kitchen and big chill area.

    Wifi for rooms was down during 3 days stay. This sort of stuff should get up asap. Toilet on common floor was also too pungent. It takes 30min to get to Sapporo station by walking and the nearest sub is also abt 8min away so you most likely just end up walking all the way

    Bunk room was clean and general areas also clean. Decent common place facilities like cooking, lounging and play.

    They had a great common space to socialize with other travelers. Met some cool buddies there. The convince store is just next to the hostel. Bathroom and toilet were clean.

    The toilet on the 2nd floor where the main reception was had a sewage smell that sometimes leaked upstairs as well. WiFi was only available on the 2nd floor and didn’t work particularly well for me. Dorm rooms not recommended for light sleepers - the sound insulation between beds is minimal.

    The staff were friendly. The kitchenette was well stocked, great for prepping simple meals. The room setup (5-person dorm) was quite comfortable.

    Nothing too bad happened in my stay.

    I like the common area and the atmosphere. Staffs was nice and helpful, they are good with English too, so no problem in communication. The location was great, it just took 5 to 10-minute walking distance to the nearest Shiden (streetcar) and metro station, and also easy to find places for a drink too.

    They have very long quiet hours, especially in the morning. I definitely felt a bit bad when I had to pack right before check out but I was technically supposed to be quiet.

    The staff are super lovely and very social. I had a lot of fun chatting with them. This hostel is a great place to meet people and make friends. I met some people in the lobby and we went to see fireworks together the same evening. My stay was really fun!

    Great location between Susukino and Nakajima park, which I personally like to go for walking and relaxation. The nearest streetcar station is just about 100 metre away. There are 3 nearby convenience stores : Seico Mart, Family Mart and Lawson and also many eateries, including Ganzo ramen street and a bunch of jingisukan (lamb)restaurants. There are many love hotels and Soaplands located not far from hostel, made the area a bit seedy at night, but nothing to worry about safety.
