Hostel Wasabi Nagoya Ekimae

Front desk service in smooth checkin process, staff is patient for explain facilities in hotel, tell the check out time. Provision of drinks at lobby is excellent. Toilet and bathroom is clean. One disadvantage is required a charge luggage storage service.

The facilities were comfortable and clean. The bed was relatively short/tiny even for a short person like me (153cm). I really liked how the staff would ensure that lights would be closed by 10PM. Staying near Nagoya station meant that there were bus terminals and every train type to access to easily. I also really liked the free flow for drinks (coffee/tea/water hot&cold). There were bowls and utensils to use for food as well. While staying on the highest floor, having an elevator was really nice. Despite this my stay was quite inconvenient. All of the amenities cost 50-600¥. I had to rent a towel and after checking out the baggage storage was 600¥ to store from 10AM-11PM. When I arrived at 1PM to check in or at least leave my luggage, the hostel was closed. Luckily the accommodation was only 7min away from Nagoya station and I could leave my luggage in the coin lockers. One really inconvenient at least for the ladie’s dorm was the baggage corner and the size of it. It was not allowed to keep bags within the bedroom (understandably). However I had a lot of baggage and the baggage storage corner within the same floor was really tiny and cramped. I used double the time than normal to unpack and repack because I had to bring stuff that I needed for shower and to the bed. At the same time I had to dodge people coming in and out the whole time. For some reason in the morning the bedroom door was kept open and I don’t know if it’s part of the rules, similar to the switching off the lights at 10PM. I’ve had a more convenient stay with similar cost in other places in japan with free amenities. This was really disappointing :/

Its near the station. Its clean and organized. They also have free miso and tea on the lobby. The beds are comfy and okay but too narrow aisles. I think i will want to stay here next time.

been to a different dormy several times, i like it best here, the stair to upper bed is ok, every floor has its own bathroom, they serve water, coffee, tea, miso soup for free 24 hours, they even have outside table for smokers, thank you wasabi, hope i can comeback again

The female dormitory is great we do have own privacy and all ladies are well behaved after 10pm will off the common area light and talk softly and toilet is super duper clean Will highly recommend solo travellers to stay here v budget constraints

BEST BUDGET FRIENDLY HOTEL if you need to store your bag and travel you just need to pay 300 yen per bag.. there is an all you can drink station and miso soup too.. the toilet is very clean, and the staffs are also very nice..

The location was perfect, right next to Nagoya station, super convenient! There were so many freebies that travelers could explore, from cosmetics to free suitcase covers. Love it!
