Stored bags in room early to come back to find all doors to room wide open to everyone - no security. Internet isnt free & expensive at 20 mins for 100yen, all other hostels in Japan has been free. Seems they are riding on reputation and not keeping up with facilities. Peeling wallpaper in room also not a plus. Does have a bath which is goodclose

Dormrooms are tiny and for 8 people too small. Besides there is a very bad, moldy smell in the rooms. Common area is ok.

Great hostel. Only complaint is that it was a little away from the main stations and the JR lines. We had a bit of trouble trying to find the station exits, so we ended up walking quite a bit at times. Otherwise, everything was great!

Great place to stay, people really friendly, very safe. Not that central but very easy to get into the centre as two different tube stops minutes from the place. Would highly recommend it.

Every accomodation you might need (even hair dryers in the common bathroom!); very functional but also a good atmosphere. I first chose it for the price, now I'll have other reasons to return there.

We stayed in K's House Mt.Fuji before tokyo. It is pretty much bigger and comes with free internet compares to K's House Tokyo. It does have a lift which is convenient for us. Room is small but clean and tidy. Friendly staffs and we made some new friends there.

this place is definitely no.1 in asia for a reason! only prob we found was that its a long walk from the station. you can get a taxi or transfer onto the subway though to get closer to the hostel.

This K's House wasn't as great as the one in Hakuba, but it was still quite good. The day I got there, there was a free sushi seminar, and there seemed to be a lot of adverts for other such programming. But the place had a sort of odor to it that wasn't so grand. Although it's located in Asakusa,...

This was a great hostel. My only two complaints are that there aren't enough lockers and that my room smelled - but that was the result of my roomate needing to do laundry - it wasn't the hostel's fault.

This place is really relaxed and chill, not a place to party at all, but if you meet the right people can be fun. Its really clean, ive seen the lady come in everytime someone leaves and do a crazy full on clean. I would stay here again.
