Reviews of K's House Takayama Oasis [2nd K's Hostel] 2 stars

Attention to detail, location

Good location, close to both the old town and the station. The staff was wonderful and could help out with anything. Everything was clean and comfortable.

I think the rooftop could be made a little cosier.

the small individual lights in each bed to read at night

"ciabatte" maybe a bit smelly

It’s a great place to enjoy the experience of ryokan. Note that it’s an hostel, so even though you might pay a little extra, you won’t get the “luxury”, but the staff is super friendly and it’s a very nice and cosy place.

The location is super convenient, close to both the train and bus stations. The staff member who assisted me was very friendly and talkative, which made me feel really comfortable. I also loved the music playing in the common area — it made the atmosphere very pleasant. I only stayed one night, but I truly enjoyed it.

nothing to say, all excelent

No breakfast. Location handy.

It was the most expensive accommodation I paid for in a month in Japan and the most uninteresting and outdated. I booked because it said traditional Japanese hotel, actually it was just outdated with no Japanese feel.

The cleanliness and the common dining area

There was a moisture ridden smell in the room

Very well located hostel, just a few minutes walk from the bus & train station. We were greeted by a very helpful English host who was able to provide us with useful information about what to see in the area. Our room was a private double room with bathroom: simply furnished but quite comfortable. There was a common lounge area and kitchen with fridges to store your own food, cooking and eating utensils and free coffee and tea from 7 am.

The access from the street is up stairs, which was not a problem for us, but may be an issue if you have heavy luggage. We found the price to be somewhat expensive for this style of accommodation, in comparison to another hotel where we stayed in Kanazawa.

Extremely clean and 3 mins walk from long haul bus terminal. Capsule/ bunk beds have privacy since it is within a room itself which is great for kids and family. Well documented rest and kitchen area to check out their well documented tour information. Staff speaks great English and very helpful with tourism information.

Pillow too thin/low. Quiet except if someone shower late at night, I can hear it as I am light sleeper.

The location was ideal. Close to the train station and all the tourist sites.

The high step in and out of the bathroom was a bit treacherous.

Fantastic hostel, comfortable, well equipped, very friendly and helpful staff. Strongly recommended

Strategic location, close to train/bus station and cafes. Family Mart just a short walking distance for those late night snacks. Comfortable lounge area and spacious kitchen area.

Only one shower room for the dorm floor but still manageable since we wake up early everyday so no hassle.

Clean, Homey, Friendly, Convenient

No

Staff at the front desk were friendly and helpful. The facilities were clean and orderly. Guests were polite and observed quiet hours at night. We slept well.

No, can’t think of anything.

A good place and convenient

Was very expensive due to the festival which got canceled.

Very conveniently located, immaculately clean accommodation with a fully stocked kitchen and charming communal area. Little local cultural items decorate the entire place. Elevator for hotel proper, but since checkin and reception is on the second floor, you still have to navigate some stairs every time you go in and out of the hotel. Plugs and lights conveniently positioned for each bed.

The bunk beds for our room were positioned oddly so it was a little inconvenient to access one of the bottom bunk beds, but we found that we could move the ladders out of the way to make space. There were also no surfaces in our particular room (two bunk beds) to put things down on or sit at.

I stayed in a “capsule” dorm and had the luck of one wall being a window so it did not feel too small and I had natural light. The lounge and kitchen were great - well equipped and always clean and it is nice and cozy which helps meet other travelers. The staff were very helpful and had some great tips for my stay. I realy enjoyed the place and the location.

The light in the toilets (2nd floor) goes off automatically and shuts off too quickly leaving you in the dark.

Central location, nice people
