8.8 out of 10, Excellent, (176)
"Stayed in a private room during the Snow Festival when prices for all accommodation in Sapporo are higher than usual. Room was quite cramped, but what you’d expect for budget room in Japan. Some extra hooks and shelves would make a huge difference! Friendly staff and slippers included."

"Nice hostel in Otaru! Owners are friendly and willing to help out any questions you may have. No kerosene heaters required although there was a small one in my room that I used for a nightstand, not sure why it was there because there was also a wall mounted modern Hitachi ac/heater unit that was quiet and worked perfectly. This was my first hostel stay so the only thing I needed was a larger bath towel that was easily purchased a short walk away. Will be back!"
