Guest House e-SHIP - Hostel

I liked how open and spacious the dorm bed felt, and it had four electrical outlets. The whole facility was new and clean, with a great sense of freshness, and the price was very reasonable. The shared sink area even had cleansing oil, lotion, and moisturizer. The man at reception was kind and friendly, which left a good impression. I’d recommend it to friend groups looking for somewhere clean and inexpensive. I’ll definitely stay here again when I’m in the Enoshima area.

This new guesthouse is clean and sits directly above a Lawson convenience store. It was an amazing deal: I had a dorm room with two bunk beds all to myself for the same price. I only used one bed, but the air conditioning worked well, and there were plenty of outlets. The room, shower, and sink were all clean. I’d like to bring my family next time. From Katase-Enoshima Station, I crossed the bridge in strong sea wind. The signs were easy to spot, though it would have been perfect if they said the place was directly above Lawson. I went up the stairs to what I think was the lobby, and the bright white walls made me smile. After confirming my room number and getting the password for going out, I headed to my room. The showers and sinks are shared, but they were clean and just right. One issue: staff are away from evening until morning, and you need a password to get in. I’d saved it on my phone, but went to Lawson with only my wallet and couldn’t enter. I waited a while, then knocked for other guests passing by. Someone noticed and let me in, so I was lucky, though I caused a bit of a scene. 😥 It’s a great place, and I’d like to return with my family.

We were a family of four and arrived without a reservation, but they kindly welcomed us. The place had just been renovated, so the rooms and facilities were clean and tidy, and we were comfortable during our stay. They also kept our luggage for us after checkout, which helped a lot. The owner (?) was incredibly friendly right from the start. It surprised me a little at first, but we soon got used to it. We’ll definitely stay here again.

The room was clean, and there were two people at reception. One of them was very friendly and pleasant. A lot of the other guests seemed intimidating, though, and some were even sleeping in the common room in the morning.
