    *The staff are very friendly. I mean Alex & older sister who helped me check in. *I like the pillow, mattress & blanket. For the first time I was happy with a bunk bed. *clean bathroom & fragrant shampoo+conditioner. In my opinion this is not a hostel but a hotel. *free drinks every 8pm is a plus point for this hostel.

    I went during the week of the Winter Festival. Pros: The free drink from 8pm to 10pm was a lovely chance to meet other travellers and talk with staff. The walk to the hostel from Sapporo station really isn't too far, maybe 10 minutes? There are a handful of restaurants on the way there, highly recommend trying soup curry! The facilities were pretty clean, though it was a little tricky to getting inside with the snow and ice outside. There was also consistent hot water and everything felt safe.

    Great location. Close to the station. And a paid car park (600 overnight on weeknights and 800 on weekends) right behind the hostel. The owner was super friendly and so was their dog who helped to greet guests as when they enter. The facilities are modern and clean. The hostel was safe and secure with doorlock codes for each room and the hostel itself after hours. There were also safes available in the room.
