Hostel Marika Reviews

Hostel Marika was very clean and conveniently located in the center of town with Obi Castle Ruins a couple of blocks away and a grocery store and shops right across the street. Train station is about 15 mins away by foot

The host is amazing and does her very best for everyone. However she is not there very many hours of the day. A bike is available, but only one, for 300 yen, and it's poorly maintained. Washing machine is also available for 300 yen.

The room and bed were clean, the shower room and toilet were also clean, and the price was reasonable. It was enough for a stay. However, I could hear the people next door talking a little.

I think it's perfect for people who only need a place to sleep and want to keep costs down. There is one entrance and multiple rooms from there. I think there were about 8 rooms on the first floor. It was a double room, but it only had a bed and a desk, no TV or fridge. It was a little small but not cramped. You can hear the people around you. There is a shared space, and there is a fridge there, but no TV. The rooms have a PIN code lock, so I don't think security is an issue. I went there by car, but I didn't know where it was and just drove right past it. The landmark is the dry cleaners. There is a hotel sign next to the dry cleaners. Walk past that and you will see the entrance.

I had a great time with the friendly hostess
