David Leonard Review of Pax Hostel
Truly a home away from home... you might not want ...
Truly a home away from home... you might not want to leave!
Having spent 10 days here, this is what I have to say:
+ Very cozy, homely and original interior. colorful, soothing, latin influenced yet japanese efficiency
+ The staff is extremely helpful, professional and amicable at the same time, a nice personality, authentic and relaxed vibe.
+ Very clean
+ Rooms are cleverly compact, clean, cozy
+ Perfect mix of privacy and socializing.
+ a true sense of calm and peace
+ rooftop access
+ has everything you need, you can get towels and washing machine (for a small fee)
+ living area has a record collection, and people can be the DJ with the available laptop.
+ residing on the corner of a very lively, authentic and charming neighbourhood. Easy to find a peaceful area and to go find life at the same time. Authentic stores, restaurants big and small, izakaya's, everything less than a minute away
+ likely to meet people from everywhere around the world. Seems to attract soul-searching individuals.
+ Tsutenkaku tower right there in view!
+ a few minutes away from several metro stations
+ close to a park
+ hearing the history behind the name explained by Saki is just wonderful.
+ very safe area even if this area is considered the most dangerous place in Japan. You just might see some weirdo's but this makes it all the more authentic.
+ it has one of those fancy japanese toilets!
+ oh yeah and there is a slide! from the upper floor to the living area :D
with all of this in mind the 23 euros/25 dollars per night is a steal!.
