Saga International Guesthouse Hagakure Reviews

The female dorm has a security entrance, so I felt safe staying here. There is a shopping area just behind the hotel, and lots of eateries available. The Kumamoto castle is also within walking distance. The washroom's cleanliness and amenities are tip top. There are no complaints. There is also a washing machine and dryer which is convenient if you need to do some laundry during your travels. There is also a female bath but I didn't have time so I have no comments on that. There was also a rest area for dining which is good for people who wants to eat take-away or convenience store foods. There is a hot water provider and microwave, but there was no drinking water supply. (I guess you'll need to buy bottled water, which in this case, there are several vending machines within the premise)

Cute sake bar downstairs!

About 8 minutes walk from Saga Station~ There are convenience stores nearby and a large supermarket is not too far away. Accommodation conditions are just like ordinary youth hostels The shared kitchen is not very useful The power of the induction cooker is not high enough ~ the heating is weak And it will affect the travelers on the bunk beds next to the curtains. This is a rather inconvenient place

It was my first time staying in a youth hostel. I thought it would be hard, but it turned out to be clean, tidy and warm. It really broke my stereotypes. The location is just 7 or 8 minutes walk from the JR station, on the main road. Across the road is an izakaya with all local guests. It has a sense of age and atmosphere. The food is good. I recommend everyone to try it. It's called "Tong". There will be two buses to take everyone away at 9:50 the next morning for Spring Airlines flights. It's not far from the bus terminal, so you can walk there. Toiletries are charged extra, so I brought my own.

A great hostel very close to the station. Very clean and kitchen available. Convenient to stay during the festival

It is inconvenient to leave your luggage, so if you need a place to leave your luggage after check-in or check-out, we recommend another place (500 yen for 20 inches of luggage stored in the station, 700 yen for more) Also, although it is on the second floor, the stairs are steep, so it is not recommended for carrying heavy luggage. Other than that, I'm very satisfied! In particular, it rained that day, so my shoes got soaked, but there was a shoe dryer so I was able to keep them dry. + Mixed rooms are separated only by a curtain, so women are recommended to stay in a private room.

A very local style one-family house, a family-style B&B. It's about a 10-minute walk from Saga Station. There's a small bar on the first floor and accommodation on the second floor. The stairs are narrow and steep, so be careful when going up and down. Although it's a small B&B, the service is very good. It rained on the day of check-in, so I left my umbrella at the entrance. I had to check out early the next morning, but the first floor area was locked. Later, I contacted the store and they mailed it back to me.

After getting off the train at Saga Station, I found it even more desolate than expected. It is indeed the place that ranks first in the list of the least attractive prefectures for many years. I walked a few hundred meters in the wind and rain to reach the Hagakure B&B. The appearance is no different from that of ordinary residential single-family houses. It is a relatively large villa. After entering the door, I found that the lighting and atmosphere are quite warm. There is only a young lady at the front desk. You need to scan the code, fill in the information, take a photo of your passport, and finally see the entry and exit password and get the room key. I booked a four-person female dormitory. The ventilation is probably not very good. One of the people living with me may have lived there for several days. I don’t know if it is Chinese medicine or something. The smell fills the room and can’t be dispersed. Fortunately, the store is very considerate to set up a small portable fan at the head of the bed. At night, the fan is always turned on to speed up ventilation. There was another small incident. Because it rained that day, we left our wet umbrellas at the entrance area to dry. We didn’t expect to find out the next morning that the area was locked from the evening until the next day when new check-ins were received. Therefore, when we left the next morning, another customer and I couldn’t go to the bar area to get our umbrellas. Fortunately, after contacting the store, we got their understanding and they promised to send our umbrellas to our homes. Although I haven’t received them yet, I’d like to give a thumbs up to this early response!

Saga is a clean and beautiful city. Although it is very quiet, there is plenty of food, drink and entertainment. I will bring my family here next time... The hotel is very humane from the front desk reception to the housekeeping. A cup of coffee will be given when you check in. If there is no special event, the room rate is also very lovely

Make it feel like home

The location of the youth hostel is very convenient. It only takes 5 minutes to get to the relevant location from the train station. There are many eateries and restaurants nearby, as well as convenience stores, so it is convenient for eating or shopping.

Not bad, you can try again

The owner is kind and enthusiastic. The hostel is very clean every day. I live in a 4-person room, which is quite comfortable. There is room for exercise in the room. Because it is winter, I prepared two quilts on the left, which are much warmer! The only thing that is not good is that you have to go down to the first floor to take a shower, that is, you will see other people, and you have to change the pillow bag and bed sheet yourself.

Very clean and comfortable
