Focus Kuramae

Stayed in the double private room. It was cozy and right next to the shower and bathrooms. Loved the cleanliness and location of this hotel. The lounge area is aesthetic and serves food too. Train station is only a 10 minute walk away.

Exactly as what one expected from a guesthouse type accommodation.

The room is clean with free earplug provided. Staff was nice and helpful

I solo traveled to Japan for a month and stayed in this hostel for 2 weeks. Everything looks exactly like the pictures! It's one of the cleanest places ever—they do a thorough cleaning every day, which I really liked. There is a full kitchen, so you can make your own meals, and they provide free condiments for guests to use. Plus, there's free coffee! It's perfect for long stays. Special thanks to the staff members Nao and Ryuya. I had great conversations with both of them and got excellent recommendations for places to visit. The location is amazing, really close to Kuramae Station. If I ever go back to Japan, I will definitely come back here. Thank you!

Clean rooms and amenities, very professional for a hostel and easy to get around Tokyo from the nearby station.

I think this is a good hostel but they screwed me over. It’s clean and the staff are nice but they had a very misleading sign on their door (which I’ve attached). I arrived at the hotel at ten pm (The app said check in ends at 11) and this sign was on the side door (the only door I saw from the direction I was coming from). I think this sign makes it pretty clear you can’t check in. I do not think this sign implies that there’s another entrance that allows you to check in later. So, I contacted trip.com and let them know the problem. Meanwhile, I booked another hotel because it was late. Long story short, the hotel refused to give me a refund. I think this is completely unfair because this sign is very misleading. I wish this hadn’t dampened my experience but it really did.
