Located right outside 18-jo Station, it's very convenient for subway users and those who have business at Hokkaido University. The staff were very friendly and the explanations were easy to understand.
The building is clean, and the obvious places are generally well-cleaned. You can only go up and down by stairs, so it's probably best not to bring a big suitcase.
The room looks cramped at first glance, but the bed frame is more spacious than other hostels and capsule hotels.
The bunk beds are sturdy and don't creak when you move. There is a little space at the head and foot of the bed, so you can put a backpack or a small suitcase inside the space and it's neat and tidy.
The only amenities provided are bath towels, toothbrushes and other items are available for a fee, but you need to bring your own slippers and loungewear. There are valuables lockers, and you can fit a normal-sized backpack (not full to the brim), so you have some peace of mind. However, the lock (combination padlock) is unlocked at first, so you can find out other people's numbers if you want to. This is a small security hole, so I hope the management will consider doing something about it.
The shower space on the second floor is clean, but the bath mat (plastic slat type) made a sound like it would break when I stepped on it, so I moved with a bit of nervousness (although I think it could also be a weight issue...). Also, the faucet on the left side of the second floor bathroom was wobbly.
I got home late at night, and there were people chatting happily in the free space on the second floor. However, their voices generally don't reach the rooms on the third floor, so you can get a good night's rest. The bedroom was quiet.
The first floor is a free space during the day and night, but it seems they open a cafe in the morning, so I would have liked to have eaten there if I had had the time.
Overall, I was very satisfied with my stay for the price. I would like to use it again next time.
