Clean hostel located right across from the train station

We got the private room with bathroom located on the second floor. It was clean and the beds were comfortable. There is a coffee/beer bar and sitting area right outside this room but noise wasn't an issue. It was nice to sit in this common area and chat with some of the other travellers. Get up early and go check out the fish market if you get the chance. Great location, close to restaurants and shops.

Easy stay

The location was great because it's seconds away from Kii Katsura station. Easy access to restaurants and konbinis nearby. Staff were friendly and helpful. Bed were bunk/capsule style and very comfortable.

Best hostel, great location.

Very clean, organised, safe and comfortable. We booked the private room which felt like a huge studio apartment just for us! It’s directly across from the JR rail to catch in the morning if you need. Book it, it’s great.

Convenient hostel in front of the train station.

The hostel is well located, cabins are comfortable, they don't have a kitchen so you have to buy food outside.
