這次沖繩旅遊第一天只有我一個人,多方考慮下第一次入住女生宿舍。位置很好,就在県廳前站 Ryubo 百貨附近,行到國際通也只是 10分鐘路程。前台的工作人員親切有禮,場地衞生,有多格洗手間及沐浴間。宿舍提供一次性用品,有拖鞋、牙刷套裝等,而毛巾需另外租用。床舖乾淨舒適,雖然只有拉簾沒有獨立門鎖,但知道有人陪伴感覺很安心,大型行李及貴重物品可放入 locker 內。感謝 AO廚房旅舍給我一個極佳的體驗,下次還會再來。

It is a 10-minute walk from the monorail station. There are two convenience stores near the accommodation. There is a foot mat for showering. There are toothbrushes and toothpaste for brushing teeth. It is about a 10-minute walk to Kokusai-dori. It is also convenient for shopping.

It's too dirty. A healthy person goes in and comes out sick. The space is small, dark, and full of germs and dust mites. It's hard to breathe and I start to cough up phlegm. This youth hostel looks like it's not disinfected. I've stayed in so many youth hostels in Japan, but this one is the most expensive and the dirtiest. The staff at the counter don't even smile. It's terrible. It's best not to stay in this room.

A very cost-effective youth hostel, very close to the city center. There is a restaurant downstairs, selling some drinks and breakfast. There are restaurants and convenience stores everywhere next to it, which is very convenient
