Two stops from Sapporo make it a great base.

Staff is amazing, very friendly and go out of their way to help. Great design of the hostel. The location is beyond ideal. Many places write that they are close ,o a station or a short walk away. This one actually is. Two stops from Sapporo, walk up the exit stairs look across the street and there it is. I wish they were all that easy. I booked a bed in the dorm room. The bed is in a capsule style but is more roomy and serves it's job as a place to put your things well. Now for the bad, the bed was too firm and I mean firm. So if you are used to a soft bed this will be a surprise. There is a privacy curtain across the entryway to you capsule BUT and this is a big BUT, there is an open cutout which acts as a window in your sleeping area. It's wide open and leave a lot to be desired for privacy. I like the idea behind it that you can have a conversation with fellow travelers but it NEEDS a curtain or a hook so one can hang something there if they desire more privacy. I ended up buying some clips at the 100 yen shop and clipping up a tshirt for privacy. All in all a good value with a good location with only a couple of flaws.

Sapporo - January 2020

Nice, clean hostel with a couple of private rooms. Rooms are basic, but s good value for the price. Of note, the private rooms are on the fifth floor accessible by a steep, narrow staircase - we needed to repack ski bags for our flight the next morning and it was a struggle to get them to our room. Great restaurant on the first floor.

北海道大学に近くて便利なゲストハウス

北海道大学に近く、地下鉄北条18にも近く便利。飲食店やコンビニも近い。 ゲストハウスだが、ベッドの空間が広い。ただ、ベッドの電気が暗すぎる。 Very close to Hokkaido University, the subway station, restaurants and convenience stores. While this is a guesthouse, bed space is large and comfortable. Bad point is the lump is very dark to read books and so on.

札幌駅に近いので利便性は高いです。 スタッフはとても良い方ばかりでした。 部屋に小さな布を被せた小窓があります。タオルなどで隙間を隠さないと外から中が丸見えになりますので、心配でした。 女性のフロアに洗面スペースがないので、歯磨きするだけでも階段で移動するのが大変でした。 不便なこともありますが、総合的には良いホテルだと思いますので、機会があれば利用させていただきます。
