What guests think
At Focus Kuramae, guests report a budget-friendly, hostel-style stay in a convenient Kuramae setting close to the subway and airport links, with generally clean spaces and practical features suited to travelers who prioritize value and simplicity.
Staff are frequently praised as kind, welcoming, and helpful. Rooms are compact with mixed comfort; some mention thin mattresses, tight capsule access, poor ventilation or temperature swings, and occasional hallway noise, while others note comfy bedding. Facilities are basic but useful: shared bathrooms and showers are generally fine with occasional maintenance, coin laundry exists though slow to dry, a paid reservation-only spa is onsite, and a cafe bar offers a social spot. A practical choice for budget travelers seeking simple dorms in a well-connected area.

Last day of a 2 week stay in Tokyo choose this because it said spa and was low priced. However spa was in the building but cost 7000 yen. As a guest and not one you could walk in reservation required. See atached photo. Dorm room mattress was thin and not comfortable and dorm was very hot. But the staff was super friendly and helpfull.

I booked a dormitory for 2 weeks and for a great price. Check in is open until 11pm if im right so its great for if you accidently get lost in public transport. Rooms for the dormitory were very nice. Shower was also great they provide shampoo conditioner and body wash already in the shower. The laundry machine is ok. Took 2-3 hour to dry clothes due to it being a all in one washer. I did get locked out from going into my floor. Was out all night drinking and tried to get back in but someone had put the security lock from the inside so i was stuck for 9 hour trying to get into my room. Staff did end up removing the lock. Still receives 5 stars for being such an awesome place to stay. Met many cool new people in the dining area and the smoking area on the roof. Cannot recommend more if youre solo traveling. Great for parties as well though because they do offer private rooms for extra.

Located near Kuramae Subway Station. Easy Acess from and to Haneda or Narita Airport. Property was just as described, but my husband wasn't too impressed with the lighting inside; it was a bit dark for him. Shared bathroom area was decent. A full sized mirror behind the door inside the room would be a nice touch. Ear plugs were provided as the sound proof was poor. You could hear conversation in the hallway. For budget travelers, this hostel serves its purpose.

The hostel is located in the heart of the Kuramae area. Walking distance to the metro, convenience stores and restaurants. The hostel staff are friendly and helpful. The hostel does lack with social elements with not having a common area. The only area where you can sit is in the cafe down stairs. They have a small kitchen with a dinning table. You never really feel comfortable with paying customers eating and drinking in the cafe. The rooms have 14 capsule beds. The top bunks are extremely hard to get into especially if you are tall like myself. I rolled my ankle and cut myself to get down the ladder. The rooms also lack in ventilation. So they can be quite hot and stuffy when sleeping. I would recommend them deleting the capsule bed system and using normal bunk beds. I would also recommend the hostel to use the roof top as a communal area. All they need to do is install a timber deck floor over the existing concrete floor and add a small gazebo for when it rains. They could also run group activities such as walking tours and food tours. For a reasonable price. All a free breakfast. Small and simple. Then the ratings will rise.

One of the better hostels in Tokyo, for the price I payed via Expedia this was a steal. The surrounding area is beautiful with a lot to explore, a 7/11 and Family Mart are located near the hostel and very walkable. The only small issue I had during my stay was the bed and the size of the room, as a 186 cm person could barely fit in the bed and the room was so small that I could even open my luggage on the ground. Other than the room my stay was great and I would greatly recommend to stay here while traveling on a budget.

Located near Kuramae Subway Station. Easy Acess from and to Haneda or Narita Airport. Property was just as described, but my husband wasn't too impressed with the lighting inside; it was a bit dark for him. Shared bathroom area was decent. A full sized mirror behind the door inside the room would be a nice touch. Ear plugs were provided as the sound proof was poor. You could hear conversation in the hallway. For budget travelers, this hostel serves its purpose.

The room was fantastic. It was also a great location being only a few minuets walk from the nearest subway station.

The hostel is located in the heart of the Kuramae area. Walking distance to the metro, convenience stores and restaurants. The hostel staff are friendly and helpful. The hostel does lack with social elements with not having a common area. The only area where you can sit is in the cafe down stairs. They have a small kitchen with a dinning table. You never really feel comfortable with paying customers eating and drinking in the cafe. The rooms have 14 capsule beds. The top bunks are extremely hard to get into especially if you are tall like myself. I rolled my ankle and cut myself to get down the ladder. The rooms also lack in ventilation. So they can be quite hot and stuffy when sleeping. I would recommend them deleting the capsule bed system and using normal bunk beds. I would also recommend the hostel to use the roof top as a communal area. All they need to do is install a timber deck floor over the existing concrete floor and add a small gazebo for when it rains. They could also run group activities such as walking tours and food tours. For a reasonable price. All a free breakfast. Small and simple. Then the ratings will rise.

I booked a dormitory for 2 weeks and for a great price. Check in is open until 11pm if im right so its great for if you accidently get lost in public transport. Rooms for the dormitory were very nice. Shower was also great they provide shampoo conditioner and body wash already in the shower. The laundry machine is ok. Took 2-3 hour to dry clothes due to it being a all in one washer. I did get locked out from going into my floor. Was out all night drinking and tried to get back in but someone had put the security lock from the inside so i was stuck for 9 hour trying to get into my room. Staff did end up removing the lock. Still receives 5 stars for being such an awesome place to stay. Met many cool new people in the dining area and the smoking area on the roof. Cannot recommend more if youre solo traveling. Great for parties as well though because they do offer private rooms for extra.

ラウンジにバーがありとても賑わってます。 ランチタイムにはバターチキンカレー（写真）があります。 フレンドリーなスタッフと、ゲストが多く楽しく過ごせます。 静かに作業したい方は、イヤホンが必要です！😅
