    Some dishware (maybe a bowl or two) would be nice but not necessary

    Great location and good hostel, especially for a price that good

    Value for money, next door to a 7/11.

    I mainly booked the place to sleep and there was not much separation between the common area and the beds. Actually People were speaking loudly even in the dorm room and the provided earplugs were completely useless. It would be good to have staff to remind people of the rules.

    Nice little place, nice people, good location and inexpensive. Easy check in and the convenience store right outside was very … convenient.

    Good Location and Plenty of Luggage Storage Space
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Bunk Bed in Mixed Dormitory Room
    • Stayed 2 nights

    Like all hostels in large cities, the space is very cramped, so the common space and walkways are very narrow.

    Location is good: easy to access various tram lines, busses, and trains. The beds are spacious-enough and have each bed has a private luggage storage area, which I very much liked. The bed curtains are thick enough to give a decent amount of privacy.

    Had a pleasant stay at Guesthouse Poptone.

    - Limited dining options on-site - some light in the sleeping area from the enlightened Poptone sign in the window - since we booked after 4pm the self check-in information didn't reach us automatically, nobody was at the reception, but after messaging the owner the check in instructions where given fast

    -Convenient location close to the main attractions like Peace Park, Peace Memorial Museum,... (-walking distance through city center 20 minutes) - combini next door - clean rooms - nice design - tea, kettle, microwave available - nice and helpful personal -digital number lock at the door

    Few pepole asked me , They don't know how to get in the room ,and find thier bed. Before checki in You must look for the message from the Guesthouse POPTONE on your egent site ,as booking com on your cell phone. The room instructions are there. Without those instructions, You don't know what to do.

    Good base for overseas tourists. There's a 24-hour store next door, so you can always get the drinks and hot meals you need. They have a cash dispenser also. Good location ,very quiet erea. 5 minutes to transportation station. 15 minutes walk from Hiroshima station The self-check-in system、There is no attendant. means you don't have to worry about late check in . However, it is difficult to enter the room late at night. you have to search your bed carefully

    The space felt a little cramped, but it's hard to make such a small place feel spacious.

    The location was the best part of the stay. It was conveniently located near some good restaurants and a few blocks from a street car stop.

    It was a bit small and my fast dry towel got "stolen" or somebody took it by accident. Not a good common area to make friends as a solo traveler

    I haven't really seen the owner a lot, but when he was there he was sooo nice and friendly+ helpful. The location is awesome

    air was a bit stuffy cause there are no windows inside the room.

    staff was not there doing our stay so we basically came and went as we pleased, which was very nice. felt safe even though it was my first time staying in a mixed hostel room!
