Staff are useless if you raise any concern. If you're interested in feeling safe during your stay, they will provide no help. I went to the desk regarding a security concern I had and they just shrugged their shoulders. If you're staying here, keep in mind the desk is just there to provide you towels. They do not care about you.

Pretty good value for Tokyo
Good location, 10-15 min walk to Shibuya. Clean and organised. Only 2 showers for the a whole floor isn’t many. Beware if you want to try and check in early, they charge 1000yen. I think this is taking advantage of tired tourists especially when they already have such a late check in time of 4pm. Why not check if the bed is ready and if so, allow someone to check in early. If not, then that’s understandable. The hairdryers are really week and need cleaning or replacing. Staff seemed friendly enough.

I stay here every year when in town visiting family nearby. The first time, I booked the twin bunkbed room for my brother & I. But the next time it was booked up, so I went with the shared dorm room & found that it was fine. The beds are built solidly & fixed to the wall, offering good privacy, a lockable safe & the beds don't creek or shake when people get in & out of them. The mattresses are comfortable & the linen fresh & clean. Location is great. Staff & atmosphere is casual, friendly & accommodating. All in all, a great, convenient place to camp out for a week or two. Thank you.

Great hostel, rooms way too small even for Tokyo
I stayed in a two bed room by myself. Everything about the hostel is great except the photos of my room are completely dishonest. There was literally only enough floorspace to open the door while the photos made it look like there was at least double the space. It made staying or doing anything in the room extremely challenging and uncomfortable.

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
Hostel has many amenities you need and friendly staff. Convenience stores nearby. Could use some updating, like newer flooring. A 20 minute walk from Shibuya station or 15 minute bus ride so a little bit away from the attractions. The station was a good starting point to many areas and is interesting in itself. Stayed with my 18 year old son for 5 nights and was great experience but a couple of nights too long for me because I felt claustrophobic after three days. Used to North America standards.

On the first night my friend and I arrived at Wise Owl Shibuya, it was their 2nd year anniversary. (Congratulations!) The atmosphere that day was pretty lively with a little party going on. The days after were quite peaceful and relaxing, and we got good sleep every night of our Tokyo trip. The room was clean, common bathrooms were also spotless, and everything worked perfectly well. No complaints at all about their upkeep. The location is also great. A little walk from Shibuya main station or a short train ride will get you here easily. The area surrounded was residential and quiet at night. A few convenience stores nearbybas well.

Second time to this hostel because we absolutely loved it. Has a nice cafe that is open late with drinks. English speaking staff. Small rooms and private bathrooms for all to use. Sort of a Hub for foreign travelers. Great place to meet new people.

Nice and clean hostel
I was happy with my stay at this hostel. The initial check-in experience was alright, but the staffs who were on shift late at night were very friendly and engaging. Overall it felt like a safe neighbourhood, and Shinsen and Shibuya are around the corner. Roomwise, we found the normal twin bunk room to be quite cramped, especially if you have 2 big suitcases. Shower and wash rooms were nicely equipped, and so was the little basket of goodies that the previous guests left for communal use.
