Very good

One of the better hostels in Tokyo, for the price I payed via Expedia this was a steal.
The surrounding area is beautiful with a lot to explore, a 7/11 and Family Mart are located near the hostel and very walkable.
The only small issue I had during my stay was the bed and the size of the room, as a 186 cm person could barely fit in the bed and the room was so small that I could even open my luggage on the ground.
Other than the room my stay was great and I would greatly recommend to stay here while traveling on a budget.
Last day of a 2 week stay in Tokyo choose this because it said spa and was low priced. However spa was in the building but cost 7000 yen. As a guest and not one you could walk in reservation required. See atached photo. Dorm room mattress was thin and not comfortable and dorm was very hot. But the staff was super friendly and helpfull.
The air conditioner wasn’t getting cool enough for me it only went down to 19°C but it wasn’t a big deal, I wasn’t waking up in sweats
Maybe just bring a small fan?
Amazing place. Everyone who works there is really nice. The beds are big and comfortable. Plenty of bathrooms. Very clean and quiet. I liked the location. It's in a more residential area but with easy train access to Shinduku and other parts of Tokyo. It's walking distance to Senso-ji, which was lovely to walk to for sunrise before the crowds get there. I highly recommend.
I enjoyed the coziness of the place. The bar/restaurant was quaint and served nice food, the staff were friendly, and the hostel is in an area that’s not buzzing with many tourists.
The only thing I didn’t like was the size of my room. However, I got used to the size so it wasn’t a huge worry. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would recommend FOCUS to friends who might want to visit Tokyo for a short trip.
