Had a great stay only have one misgivings, as senior citizen would have been happy to stay at second floor instead of third floor. Checked in and the staff took care to bring my luggage upstairs but checked out early and had to do it very carefully going down. All in all staffs was very friendly and helpful and gave good restaurant recommendations and tram schedules.

It's a fine hostel. It's really close to the street car and within easy walking distance to the Peace Park.
Positives:
--Location
--Clean
--Working AC in bunkhouse
--Bunks are large and spacious
--Plenty of showers
--Luggage storage room
--Very social atmosphere
Negatives:
--Mattress was a little too thin, even by Japan standards
--They make you pay to 'rent' a towel which is BS
--Property is a little worn but it has some charm and the value is still great

It was a nice enough stay, but for the price, I expect to be able to have a proper shower. The shower is on a 30 second timer, and if you don’t push the button every 30 seconds, it will turn off. I’m not exaggerating, you have to push the button 20 times for a 10 minute shower.
It frustrated the hell out of me. I would not stay here again solely because of that. I’ve never seen anything like it in any hostel in Japan before.

Cheap & cheerful, clean and centrally located
We stopped over at J-Hoppers for one night on the way back from Miyajima to Tokyo. The staff were super friendly and very proficient in English. The luggage storage facilities were secure and convenient. The room itself was a Japanese-style tatami room which was fairly small and very basically furnished but at the cheap price and for a crash pad it was fine. The washing facilities were clean and convenient. The location of the hostel is ideal close to the Peace Park and museum and transportation links which allow you to travel all over the city. For a no-frills cheap place to stay with friendly service, in the heart of Hiroshima this place is great.

All you need
This is a shared accommodation. The futons are comfortable and the location is just a 15 minute walk from the main attractions. Overall the shared areas are clean and kept well
Maintained. We would stay here again.

Traditional Japanese Bed - Give it a Go!
Easy access to access transportation and conveniently located to travel by tram and sightseeing. Well equipped kitchen and living area downstairs. Clean rooms and bathrooms. The beds and cubicals are as they appear, but it’s quiet cozy and the mattress isn’t “that” bad! LOL it’s traditional Japanese.
Met some cool mates!

Ill be back!!
Great Location, quiet neighbourhood with a supermarket down the road and lots of okonomoyaki places around. Hotel itself was an older building but very clean! The dorms are nice the only downfall is the foutons are very thin so made for an uncomfortable sleep.
Kitchen and dining area is great... met some great international people here and would stay again.

Fabulous setting, mediocre services, but staff was
Prime location and quaint setting, mediocre services; resistant to send their ferry dock shuttle car (only way to get their other than expensive taxi). Not worth $$$
