No Borders Hostel

Excellent Service

Satoshi is an excellent host! I really enjoyed chatting and celebrating the new year with everyone.

No Border Hostel (NBH) is now my favorite place to stay in Tokyo. You should absolutely consider a stay here! The basics- the bed is comfortable, and there is a surprisingly decent amount of storage space around the bed for your belongings. Luggage can be stored underneath your bunk so access is easy, which is rare for dorm-style hotels like NBH. The shared bathroom and shower is always clean, as is the sink and kitchen area. The common area is cozy and I was very fortunate to have met and talked to some great people from all around the world who stayed at NBH at the same time. Wifi was also very fast for big downloads and streaming. The surrounding neighborhood is fairly quiet, and NBH is right next to a bus stop that can take you to a JR station in two stops, as well as multiple convenience stores right around the alley, so it's fairly convenient to get around and get what you need. The value for price per night is absolutely unmatched in the rest of Tokyo. What makes NBH stand out though, is the host- Satoshi. I've never had a bad experience with hotel/lodging staff traveling in Japan. I've had good hosts, and a few great hosts, but I will never have a host like Satoshi (Ash) again. Satoshi is kind, approachable, and highly professional. He has an attentiveness and warmth that make him a pleasure to talk to, and I am grateful he went to out of his way to help and accommodate me personally before, during, and even after my stay. He is highly knowledgeable about traveling in Japan, so I recommend guests at NBH talk with him for destination ideas and advice. It's also clear he takes great care in maintaining NBH, which is clear throughout the facilities. I hope to stay at NBH the next time I'm in Tokyo. I have nothing but praise, respect, and appreciation for Satoshi and I wish him all the best. I don't like that there is nothing to dislike about NBH.

Satoshi was very nice. You can tell that the place was carefully designed and thought for guests’ comfort. The place provided free breakfast during my stay, simple but decent: cereals, bread, jams, milk. There were also free drinks (water, calpico water, and green tea, coffee/tea) and free ice cream. Nothing really. Place was not super super close to the station but still walking distance (~20 min to Gotenba station)

The hostel was cozy and relaxing (only sleeps 8-10 people max), super clean, and lovingly well-stocked, thanks to the warm hospitality of Satoshi san the host. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were very quiet, with sound-proof doors. Free breakfast (and free ice cream) was wonderful too. There's only one sink, which is in the common area, making it a little awkward for foreign guests who aren't keen on brushing their teeth or washing their face in a shared space.

Has everything you’d need. In a good quiet location basically 30min from anywhere in the city. Ash is an awesome host who is very knowledge and speaks perfect English which was very helpful. 10/10 recommend!

The owner Satoshi is very friendly and attentive. Everything ok.

Location and peaceful place. Great host! Nothing

Clean, cozy - great landing pad!

The host and family’s hospitality made for a homely atmosphere. The icing on the cake was complimentary ice cream! I’m sure I’ll not find near or far, soon. Thank you and best wishes

Santoshi was super nice, helped all the way. every time I had question or did know something he did his best to find a solution. the location was great for me, it was quite residential and everything was at least 30/40 away walking distance.

Staff very friendly and helpful. Nothing

Lovely hostel and friendly hosts, the place is incredibly clean and safe. Would definitely stay here again

No Borders Hostel was wonderful hostel ever. Everything was so clean, very convenience and the owner supper friendly. I really enjoyed there. Highly recommendation!

This hostel had everything you want. Sathoshi has really thought of everything, the beds were private and very comfortable. This price was so reasonable, couldn’t recommend this hostel enough. Nothing

Really great staff and hostel! Nothing

Satoshi (the owner) and the other staff are lovely. Satoshi in particular was incredibly helpful taking the time out of his day to help me (and other guests) ship a lot of goods from the Japan back to Australia. The hostel is small and only has I think 10 beds. So it's nice if you enjoy a quiet and friendly atmosphere. The free breakfast foods are also very appreciated, espicially after a big night out.

The location isn't the best, but not too bad.

Everything! Everything was great, I just wish my trip was longer :)

It is cute and cozy. The staff are amazing!! It’s a bit far from any stations. But it is in the middle of a bunch of stations. So depending where you need to go you got some options.
