Hostels w: Aichi Prefecture, Japan

The location is excellent, just a seven or eight-minute walk to Nagoya Station. There's a Lawson and a Sukiya right next door. By the way, the K-Books nearby is really great for browsing, with many good deals or prices similar to the market rate.

The location is good. The room was clean and nice, but the shared toilet was built into the wall and was at an angle. I'm not very tall so I was able to use it, but it would be difficult for taller people. As expected, the area under the toilet was in a terrible state in the morning. I hope it's only on the floor where I stayed.

This is my top choice for a layover and a night's sleep when flying, as it's right inside the airport. Makes catching an early flight a breeze. Even though it's a capsule hotel, it's clean and hygienic, and the front desk staff – an auntie or grandma, perhaps? – was very warm and attentive.

Very good capsule hotel with complete facilities. I went during rainy season and we were required to put our shoes in the locker which cause it to not dry the next day. Could be an improvement in the future to allocate a place for our shoes to dry.

I initially thought I had booked a regular room, but it turned out to be a dormitory-style capsule instead. If you’re traveling light, this place may suit you, but there isn’t much space to store luggage. There’s no locker or safe provided. Amenities are not complimentary, each item, including bottled water, costs 100 yen. Upon checkout, you’re required to remove the bedsheet and pillowcase yourself. Also, note that the showers are only available until 10:30 pm. Personally, I found the place unsuitable for my needs and decided to move to another proper hotel nearby. One more thing to be aware of: the property is located near a temple, and the surrounding area has no streetlights at night. Walking back via that route can feel quite eerie, so it’s safer to stick to the main road along the river.

Never disappointed with Japan hostel. Clean, quiet, organised etc. This hostel is very strategic location in Osu (大须) Shotengai Shopping Street and having nearby train station. It is also walking distance to Sakae area. A must visit Osu plus stay for solo Travellers. Afternoon shopping can put groceries at hostel and continue shopping again. The instructions in English is very clear, the bed in room is very clean etc.

Small and cozy hotel. Close to Nagoya Station. Sadly, hotel’s service was poor. No toilets and showers inside rooms, only public ones. Rooms are clean, there are some amenities. Recommend only for business trips, not holiday trips. There is a pretty good takoyaki place around the corner.

This is the second time I stayed at the Shochikumei Hotel. The hotel seems to be a renovation of the former workers' dormitory. It is within a ten-minute walk from Nagoya Station. It is two stops away from Sakae Station, and the transportation is very convenient. The hotel room is small, but very clean, and disposable toothbrushes and slippers are provided. The bathroom and toilet are public, relatively clean and sanitary. I will stay here again next time, mainly because it is cost-effective.

The room was very clean and spacious. the balcony also provided a good view of the beach. Having a microwave and a fridge inside the room was also very convenient. The receptionist was kind and easy to talk to.
