Cozy and welcoming!
My stay at PAX started with a welcoming staff who carried my luggage up to my room and also Introduced me to the local area and provided me maps and suggestions. PAX is a relaxing space with records and a slide you can enjoy! WiFi is Strong and the beds are comfy. I highly recommend this hostel!! It’s about a 5 min walk to the subway. Thanks for a great stay! Much love ~Michelle~

Perfect stepping off point in Tsutenkaku
Easy to find hostel with a cafe and record place down the bottom that serves really great coffee and such yummy food! I had the vegetarian banh mi two days in a row and it was so nice. Oishi! Check in was easy and the reception offered to take my bag up the steps to my room which was really nice. Really friendly and easy going staff, mainly Japanese and good English (I will learn more Japanese for my next visit I promise!). I was in the female dorm and the bunks were quite private and comfortable with a lock box, a little shelf, a light, a plug and some hangers on hooks. I had a little trouble getting up and down the ladder cos my fat thighs kept getting stuck, not sure why the wood goes up so high cos I found it a little unwieldy with my uncoordinated body hahaa. The bed was comfortable but got a little warm in the middle of the day when I slept in cos I was next to the window but it wasn't really an issue. All the facilities are very clean and well looked after. Only one shower in my area but I didn't have a problem accessing it (luck, perhaps?) and there is a very cheap onsen close to the hostel. There really wasn't much to fault whatsoever and they were really kind to me about a massive stuff up I made due to a change in my circumstances so I recommend this place wholeheartedly. Other guests were very nice too. Thank you!

I recommend the Pax hostel
Was very nice place, small but cozy, staff were helpful & friendly. Excellent to take a rest at night after you got tired from trip. Location also is convenient, nearby 3 subways, walked only 4-5 minutes. Really recommended for all.

ベッドの寝心地がよく、スタッフのカンジがよいホステル。
・今まで利用したゲストハウスの中でベッドマットが一番よかった！ ベッドマットの好みは人によるとは思うが、ちゃんとしたベットマット（コイルスプリング）で、安眠できる。ベッド最高です！ ・シーツ等も事前にセッティングされており、チェックアウト時もそのままでよい。 ・女性ドミトリー利用。ゲストハウスのベッドで、うなぎの寝床タイプ形式は初めてで、入る前は狭さ・息苦しさを感じるかもと心配していたが、ちゃんとしたベッドマットが入る幅と、ベッドの横に３段の小さな棚があり、物を色々置けたり、その棚を設定する分の板間が取られているので、一般的な２段ベットよりスペース的には広い。 壁にはフックが３個とハンガー、鏡もあり、木造りの鍵付の貴重品BOX、コンセント差込口も３個口あって、嬉しい。 但し、隣のベットとの境の壁板に隙間があり、少し光がもれる。 ベッド２階だと、はしごが、登っていると90度近くに感じる設定な上、隣のベットと半分サイズで共有のような形で、登りにくい。暗い中で登りこむ時はバランスを崩さないよう気をつけましょう。 ・共有スペースは、１階のカフェでも宿泊者用のフリードリンクを利用できるし、カフェには席の他に、中２階のようなスペースもあり、くつろげる。 ３階の共有スペースには調理できるキッチンと食事できるテーブルもあり、嬉しい広さ。３階は他にトイレ2、シャワー１、洗面3？(ドライヤー有)で男女共有だったと思う。シャワー室は一般的なユニットシャワー室より少し広いように感じた。 ・女性ドミの部屋ドアにも番号キーがあり、安全面を考えてくれているとも感じたし、ちょっとトイレに行く、水を飲むという時にちょっぴり面倒くささも感じる。 ・女性スタッフがとてもいい人で親切でチャーミングな方だった。 チェックインは22時までだが、22時以降には受付にある電話で日本人スタッフに困ったことがあれば訊けるシステムになっていたし、私が宿泊した時は、22時以降でも外国人スタッフが受付にいて、簡単な質問をすることは出来た。
