고층건물 2층에 가건물로 침대짜놓은 느낌입니다. 교통편을 제외하고는 침대나 분위기가 산만하고 안정감을 주지못했습니다. 체크인할때 큐알코드 없으면 시간소모가 많습니다. 투숙객에게 모든것을 맡겨놓은 느낌!

コスパ高し♩

場所はキャナルシティーにほど近いところで、過も無し不可も無しといった感じです。 一階のラウンジがゆったりでき、数人がコワーキングスペースとして使用していました。深夜でも使用出来ます。 一点困ったのがキャリーバッグの保管で、大きなロッカーやカギ付の保管場所もありません。また困った事による9時以降は館内にスタッフが不在となるため、預かる場所もカギの無いスチール棚だけです。 しかしスタッフにお願いしたところ、ワイヤー錠を貸してくれたので、安心して預ける事が出来ました。 ありがとう御座いました。 シャワーは温度水量とも十分ですが、一つのブースを除いては少し狭いかなという感じです。 事前に申し込んでいた朝食は3種類から選ぶことが出来、十分な量で美味しく頂きました。これは年齢により差があるかもしれませんが。 間違いなく、価格の以上の内容です。 またお世話になりたいと思います。

I wouldn't recommend this hostel, even though it's very new and in very clean conditions. I visited Fukuoaka during the corona virus outbreak, and as a person with Asian/Chinese descent I feel like the check-in staff were extremely unfriendly to me. Further, I was booked into the shared dormitory, which I would strongly suggest avoiding because there's around 18 people couped into one room. Would recommend another place where there's less people in a room (eg. 8 room dorm) because there are only 4 showers for the whole floor, so essentially sharing this with 60+ people. Overall, new hostel but one of the more unpleasant experiences I encountered in Japan (which is a very friendly country normally).
