    Good location but a poor night's sleep

    Extremely uncomfortable bed! I got a top bunk in the female dorm and it felt like sleeping on a bare wooden plank, I'm 32 and relatively fit but I struggled to get any sleep at all and in the morning my back and hips were screaming in agony. Also the complimentary shampoo and conditioner was really poor quality, it left my hair in a tangled mess :( Next time in Fukuoka I'll sadly look for a different place to stay.

    Great location for my morning ferry to Busan, as it's a 20min walk to the ferry port. A lovely, traditional decor with tatami-covered floors and original wooden rafters. They were happy to accept my luggage before the check in time.

    It’s a very beautiful little house. Haru was very nice and helpful. Loved the place.

    It's really comfortable to be in this guesthouse and spacious. We can use the washing machine freely, very helpful 👍. If you want to go to Busan (South Korea) by boat, the ferry terminal is at 15 minutes around on foot. Thank you 😊

    Though it is a dorm, no place for anything, expect just the bed to sleep. No space on the corridor, very small shower room. Slightly overpriced.

    Quiet location near the port. Nice staff.

    Good choice if you want to live in a traditional Japanese house
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Single Bed in Female Dormitory Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    Considering this is a house instead of a hotel, there is only one restroom for each male and female and two shower rooms. Not much convenient if you use in rush hour in the morning or evening.

    If you would like to experience living in a traditional Japanese house, this would be a good choice, located in a quiet neighborhood, within walkable distance to the bus station; convenience stores are nearby. The kitchen can be used by guests at any time. Didn't get the chance to know about the staff there, but based on the intro note they post on the front desk, they are passionate about what they are doing, one staff I met on the day I left was quite friendly and helpful.

    The location was a little bit awkward if you wanted to go areas like Tenjin for the nightlife - it took a fair amount of time on public transport. Good for the port though!

    Such a cosy hostel! It felt very communal and the check in staff were friendly and helpful. They were very helpful and kept my bag while I stayed in another city for the night

    Very great Hostel for connecting and getting to know people. The Staff was so welcoming and nice. I felt immediately welcome. Everything was clean. The shared space with the kitchen and lounge is small but very cozy. Go to this Hostel when you are in Fukuoka especially if you travel alone and want to connect with others.

    The building is old and therefore not soundproof at all. You can hear food steps from the upper level and everything that your room mates do at night. Also the men's toilet has a weird slit to the window, from where you could look into the bathroom

    In walkable distance to the harbor to and from Busan. It was generally clean and the staff was helpful and nice.

    Far from main train station in Fukouka. Found buses challenging there- there was a bus stop a 3-4 min walk away. Older building so did have to make effort to tiptoe so didn't cause creaking of floors when moved around (we were upstairs). Walls quite thin but everyone there very respectful.

    Good value. Super clean. Had nice private room but toilets/shower were downstairs.

    I sleep well at night but often hearing noise from people who come back late. I’m also one of those people, so it’s hard to keep super quiet. In the end, I preplanned my stuff when I came back midday so that my luggage zipper didn’t wake anyone early in the morning or late at night. It was annoying to be woken up by someone else’s small alarm.

    Cheap and close to the Fukuoka Conference center. Within a neighborhood that was nice and quiet. I like the privacy screens and personal lamp. Showers were both great and clean.

    People keep drinking around the kitchen area until very late in the night. Talks can be heard from the rooms, even after midnight. I have to say that this happened to us during the weekend. So... use earplugs if you want to have a good sleep. One morning (around 5 am), I met a drunk guy sleeping in the male's toilet. He was just there, sitting and sleeping with open doors. Hahahahaha

    Nice Japanese style hostel. Good vibe, nice people

    The top bunks get really toasty on a hot and sunny day, and depending on where your bunk is located, it didn’t feel like the air conditioning quite circulates the air to the top of the room. I had bed A in the female only guest room, and it definitely felt stuffy. There’s also not a lot of vibrational dampening in the beds so movement on lower bunks or the building can be felt. You have to put on the bedding they provide and strip the sheets as part of checkout, but the blanket they give you doesn’t have a cover so it wasn’t clear if it gets regularly laundered?

    Great value at a great location if you need to get to Hakata Port - only 10-15 minutes walk. Staff were super friendly and social.

    dorm room size was pretty small with not much space to put stuff, but thankfully I had enough room in my bed area.

    friendly staff. filtered water. it felt very clean. kitchen with cookware, if needed. many bus lines around. about 25 minute walk from train station, but there’s also a bus that drops you off near the hostel. a few cheap food options nearby and quiet neighborhood.
