IN FRAME HOSTEL enoshima - Hostel

Such a cute place! It's not too far from Sagami Bay, and you can do laundry here if you need to. I'd love to come back.

Really nice, with a very reasonable price. The room was clean, and the Master was veeeery nice.

There are dorms and private rooms at this new, clean hostel. The wide cabins feel roomier than traditional dorm beds and have two curtains for privacy. Towels for both bath and face are included at no extra charge, and the amenities are generous for a hostel. The bathrooms have MUJI body soap, shampoo, conditioner, facial cleanser, makeup remover, lotion, and emulsion. There’s a toaster and microwave in the lounge, plus an open kitchen and refrigerator. No drink vending machines, though, so you can get supplies at the Lawson on the first floor. The beds are comfortable, and the showers and toilets are very clean. I think it’s a safe choice for women traveling alone. Bring identification, such as a driver’s license, health insurance card, or passport. It’s also well placed: a 1-2 minute walk from Katase-Enoshima Station on the Odakyu Line, five minutes from Enoshima Station on the Enoshima Electric Railway, and ten minutes from Enoshima itself.

My husband and I had a comfortable stay in a three-bed room with our own toilet and shower. It had the basics we needed, and being close to Enoshima was handy. There’s a convenience store downstairs, too. The downside was the noise. We could hear people talking and walking in the hallway, as well as a neighbor's LINE app, and it was pretty disruptive.
