SHARIN Kanazawa Traveler's Inn - Hostel

There needs to be a sensible latest check-in time, and someone on site to enforce quiet hours, especially with such an early checkout. The room has four beds, one shower, and one toilet, with the shower attached to the bedroom. There was no employee around to help when things got out of hand. At 11 PM, three people arrived and made noise until after 1 AM. For more than two hours they slammed doors, stomped around, left shoes right beside my bed, and kept switching the lights on without turning them off. The person in the bunk above me stood over my bed and dropped something on me, then searched for it between my feet. They left the room door wide open twice, so I had to get up and close it and turn off the lights. Then someone set off the door alarm and woke me up. You can also hear lots of thumping from people walking in the rooms above and going up and down the stairs. For the same price, I'd look for a capsule hotel if you need a quiet place to sleep and get up early. This wasn't fair on guests trying to rest.

Megumi was a ray of sunshine. She was so helpful, and even offered to drive me and another guest to the gardens because she was headed that way. I'll always remember her kindness. The whole stay was wonderful. With the bar closed, the place felt like our own private sanctuary. The room's finishes showed a real eye for design, and quiet music playing in the front added to the relaxed, cozy atmosphere. The beds were comfortable, the shower was super clean, and nice products were provided. The other guests were quiet and considerate, too. The service was excellent, and I'd stay again in a heartbeat.

A friendly woman checked me in, and my private room had its own shower. The WC is shared with one other room. The bar downstairs opens for a few hours in the evening. It's about a 7-10 minute walk from Kanazawa station.

A cute little place, and I really liked my room. It was very comfortable, and I'd happily stay again. Thanks for the hospitality.
