A fine choice for sleep on the cheap!
Pros: What's provided at J's Backpackers is a very good deal. The location proved fine for me to reach and return to, and it was easy to walk to the train station. It's a nice house and functions well for the purpose.
Cons: Those who choose to stay in a shared room environment might well consider not only quiet behavior at night, but quieting their devices as well. Perhaps your devices don't disturb your sleep, but they may disturb the sleep of others. Snoring is another story entirely!

New Zealand 🇳🇿
Pros: very convenient. shops were just around the corner, nearest train station was just over the bridge. very quiet, very peaceful, and every now and then you get to socialize with the other people.
Cons: not that I'm complaining, but I found the downstairs toilets to be a bit too small for me, being a huge guy I often struggle to get down to business. nevertheless, you do get what you pay for.

Pros: Very pleasant and helpful host! There is a grocery shop nearby, the train station is about 15 min walk away, but it's easy from then on... It's Tokyo so you are going to spend time riding around pretty much regardless of where you get your accommodation. For the price this goes for, it's pretty much what you'd expect... very comfy and quiet neighborhood as well. I understand that for someone else this kind of minimalism wont work, but for a solo traveler like me that needs only necessities, and spends most of his time outside exploring, this is ideal.

Good price and nice owner
Pros: The owner gave me and my friend a room just for us (girls) and kept the boys in the second room, we were able to cook there and he provided drinkable water, oil, salt pepper etc , there’s a vending machine outside and a place to hang out. I would recommend this place 👍🏼
Cons: Is pretty far from the city and 15 min away by walk from Aoto station (the closest); they could improve the cleanliness of the shower room and toilets also should have the option to change bed cloths for long stays

Very reasonable; does the job.
Pros: The amenities were all in good condition,the hostel was also clean and safe. I like the fridge as well, it was very useful.
Cons: The hostel is on a peninsula between two main stations, meaning the walk over the large bridge and the final few streets can be complicated for people unfamiliar with the area. However, this is only a small issue, and not one that can be rectified.

Austria 🇦🇹
Pros: I doubt you will find a cheaper place of this quality to spend your night in Tokyo. Beds were comfortable, all necessary facilieties were there but a bit dirty (Kind of like a Student dorm really) and the staff was friendly. Big Lockers and free towels are also a plus. Location is in aoto so about 40 Minutes from tokyo Main station. Overall good value for the price. Highly recommended for backpackers/travellers on a budget.
