Great place and nice folks, especially nice is the fact that you cannot see Okinawa through the toilet paper. It’s 2-ply! Very comfy bed.

Very clean place and friendly staff. Lawson is a 5 minute walk away. Subway station is about a 9 minute walk from the hostel (roads are well-paved so wheeling suitcase was fine) and restaurants are 7 minute walk.

Everything was perfect! Host was extremely accomodating. All facilities were very clean and tidy. There was no dryer when I was there but able to use a hair dryer for clothes! Cozy vibes and 4 minute walk to nearest subway was ideal. When I’m back in Sappppro I’ll be staying there.

Wonderful hostel - clean, quiet, fun and unique. Really couldnt ask for anything different. The host was kind, accommodating and communicated well. Only thing is the location is a bit of a walking distance from most points of interest in Sapporo. This would not be an issue if you had a car, but we did not.

주인분이 서양인이신데 매너가 좋고(캐리어 계단올려다주심) 짐맡기기나 체크아웃 유연하게 조정해줍니다. 방은 도미토리치고 엄청 넓고 안에무려소파도있어요! 침대자체도 여유롭고 캐리어펼쳐놓고 다녀도 넘편했습니당. 방도 욕실도 아주 깨끗했구요. 이쪽이 중심과는 떨여져 있어서 즐길만한것은 없지만 대신 주변이 조용하고 아침에 새소리나서 너무 좋았어요! 특히 바로옆 나카지마공원 산책하기 정말 낭만적이고 좋았습니다. 여기서 조깅하는 거 깅추드려요!
