Customer reviewWestern style hostel. Too many people in the same room. Could be noisy and dirty. If it is packed, difficult to get a good night sleep. Staff is very friendly and helpful, location is good. Good chance to see the shrine on the island at night with lanterns lit up. |

Stephan CaffaGreat hostel, the location is top notch. The ferry to Miyajima is around the corner and the station to Hiroshima is around 5 minutes away (walking), it's perfect. The place is very clean and feels safe. The staff is great! |

Customer reviewGood place to get breakfast is the bakery shop just a minute away. Try also the Udon shop on the main road direction Iwakuni, 4 minutes walk and value for money. Good place to stay if you are on a JR rail pass and want to travel to Hiroshima and Iwakuni |

Kev ShirtcliffeI almost feel homesick for this hostel. Whilst the hostel provided everything we needed in terms of great location, washing facilities, wifi access, it was the staff that made it! The staff went out of their way to help, we went camping had BBQ's and drinks at night. What a top bunch of lovely people, we will be back! |

DAVID YAMADAThe directions were not good. It would have been easier to find if they just said the hostel is located behind the Miyajima Coral Hotel on the Ferry Wharf. Anyway, it was a great location to take the Ferry to Miyajima. It was also close to the JR Train stop. The staff and facilities were fine and the staff was helpful. |

Customer reviewNice, clean and welcoming. Very helpful staff. Free Wi-Fi Internet access and one free shower token. :) Location is great, just 2mins walk to Miyajima ferry (please note, however, the hostel is not located on the island but on the mainland). Not so much privacy in the dorm but all in all a place to recommend to other travellers! |

Christina CastellaGreat location, great athmosphere, clean, etc. The only negative point was the blanket is a bit thin (take your sleeping bag with you) |

marta blanco ballestaIt's situated close to the ferry to Miyajima and in a quite neighborhood. It's perfect if you want to visit the island and be away from the city. Very friendly staff!. |

Customer reviewThe hostel is located right to the sea, what is great. But of course, one has to go half for the city. What I didn´t like is the fact, that light is turned of after 11pm - no small lamp in your bed. There is no private socket for your electronic devices - you have to put your mobile phone f.ex. in the middle of the room, not sure, whether it will still be there, when you awake. |

Customer reviewMy wife and I stayed here for a night. As a jumping off point for Miajima Island, it's a great place to stay. If you want to use it as a place to stay for doing lots of Hiroshima stuff, I'd look somewhere closer to the city. |
