Bnb+ Sarasa Nara - Hostel Reviews

A beautiful and modern hostel. Unfortunately I never met any staff member and also no one cleaned or arranged the beds, while I was there. All the lights remained on, even in the dorm and there’s no possibility to turn them off. The dorm itself was unfortunately also quite cold, while all the other spaces were warm and cozy. Otherwise everything was okay. There was a nice common space. But in general it doesn’t feel very safe and organized, as anyone can just enter the hostel and the dorm without any key or password.

The most convincing thing is the location, location, location is very good. The price is cheap, cheap, cheap! Right next to Nara Park and various ancient buildings. Others: No one to check in, self-service. The bathroom is very narrow. Men and women live together. No toothbrush and toothpaste. In short, there is nothing worth choosing except the location and price.

It's just so-so. The location is hard to find. It's in a small alley. Self-service check-in

The location is good, but very hidden and hard to find. No one is there either. Self check-in.

The location is super good, very clean, the bathroom is separated into wet and dry areas, and even facial cleanser is provided. It's just a short walk to Nara Station, and there are many places to eat and buy nearby. It's very convenient to walk anywhere. There is a supermarket at the intersection, and food is discounted after 7:30 every night. Don't miss it.

It's called a 10-person room, but it's actually a 20-person room. The sanitary conditions are very poor, and the bed sheets were not changed. There is no service, no one at the front desk, and you have to be self-service throughout the whole process.

The location is convenient. It's a good choice if you stay for one or two nights, but it's not very comfortable for a long stay.

You have to go up from the elevator at the back of the building. Before checking in, make sure you have received the email with the code to open the door.

Very quiet, clean, and not many people there when we checked in that night.

The facilities are good and clean. The staff are also friendly. The location is also good as it is close to the station. However, it may be difficult to find at first, so be sure to look at the address carefully.

The reception and bathroom outside are okay, there is a washing machine, but the small room is mixed with men and women, and the curtains are not sealed, you can see inside, and the lights are dim, it is a bit scary to be alone. No one was there when we checked out. After waiting for a while, we put the room card at the front desk and left. One door is the dormitory area, and the other is the washing area. The dormitory area requires you to enter the password, but the washing area and the dormitory area are connected. You can enter the washing area casually. I feel so scared to stay overnight and run away. The price is cheap, but there is no sense of security.

The lights are not turned off all night. It's ok for people living downstairs, but it's ok for people living upstairs to sleep with the lights on all the time. Other than this, everything else is fine.

The location is in an alley. It took me a long time to find it, but the environment is very good👍👍

This is the best hostel I've ever stayed in. Whether it's facilities, location, service or hygiene, it's the best. I admire the front desk staff for their seamless switching between Japanese, English and Chinese. Even the cleaning lady can speak English, which is amazing. I'll stay here again next time I go to Kyoto. Please book 2 weeks in advance.
