5/5 Excellent

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
What I like about the property is the cleanliness and the service provide given to the guests at Bunka Hostel Tokyo. They have free wifi, provide breakfast, and washroom facilities for you to use. You donโ€™t have to worry about travel far from the hostel. There are sightseeingโ€™s and food very close by. You can stay connected with the latest food trends and make sure donโ€™t forget to visit the Sensoji temple and Kaminarimon. Without these 2 visitations your Tokyo trip wonโ€™t be complete. Sky tree is alittle far but still in the Asakusa area.
