Unplan Kagurazaka

I’d say this hostel is pretty much perfect, as long as you’re not looking for an incredibly social hostel. It checks all the boxes. Beds were real comfy, wi-fi worked perfectly, bathrooms and toilets were kept clean, and there’s enough so you never have to wait long. Towels are provided, as well as shampoo and body wash. there’s a laundry machine onsite, so it’s easy to do your laundry. The restaurant downstairs serves good food, and prices are reasonable. There’s free basic breakfast too (bagels and yogurt). Just choose a different flavor of bagel each day to break the monotony. Heh. The location is great—- the nearest train station is only a five minute walk away. There are also many restaurants nearby. If you’re on a really tight budget, there’s a Family Mart right next door for cheap, delicious meals ;) The only downside, as I’ve mentioned, is that there’s not much social atmosphere. This is pretty common in capsule hostels in Japan though. You could make friends during breakfast every morning, or hang out in the small common area at the third floor—- that’s pretty much it. The hostel does occasionally have activities for guests (like tours) but these occur infrequently. If they had daily activities lined up that would surely make this hostel more social.

Amazing area! Great area away from tourist bs and a great price!!
