THE STAY WAKKANAI
Cosa dicono gli ospiti
The location of the hostel is right near the station, which is great. Moreover, the kitchen area is comfortable and has everything that one would need. The bunk beds were also very good: spacious, great individual light and curtains. The bathroom was clean and the shower had good pressure and water temperature. There is also a bike garage for 500 yens a night per bike, which makes this hostel the perfect bikepacking stop. Moreover, there is a tattoo friendly onsen 15 minutes walking from there, as well as good restaurants. We really enjoyed our stay.

It was one of the most clean and comfortable hostel I ever stayed. Wonderful customer service. Highly recommend to everyone. Inside the hotel is Japanese rules - meaning take off shoes before you enter the rooms. They provide you with room slippers with purchase. Do not wear hostel slippers inside the room! They had free tea/coffee/miso soup for guest. Laundry service was great! I had to check in very late, but they gave me instruction and it was easy to follow. Excellent customer service and wonderful stay. Futon was comfortable. I stayed in one of semi-single room. Lots of space. I would LOVE to come back and stay here again. Wifi was free and worked very well. Lots of information in both English and Japanese for things to do around the city. LOVED the stay. Thank you very much for wonderful hospitality! It was great and one of the BEST hostel I ever stay. Across from the train/bus station!!

The location was great! We were right next to a cinema so that was nice for a spontaneous movie night! We were also within a comfortable driving distance to get to onsens and the Wakkanai attractions close by. The beds were extremely comfortable and I was able to sleep super well because of it - also close to a supermarket. The staff were very friendly and answered all the questions we had - the kitchen facilities were great, it was nice to have accessible cold water and make tea and miso for ourselves AND use the microwave and cutlery. Everything was very clean.

The hostel allows late check-in, which is very helpful, if you take the last train from Asahikawa at 20:06 and arrive to Wakkanai around midnight. You need to prepay your ballance via booking.com, then tell hotel operators abour your later arrival, and send copy of your passport to the provided email address, and they will send you self check-in instructions and codes. Strong wifi, complimentary tea at the reception, lockers with key, clean, very near railway station (~1 minute walking).

The staff was very helpful. They explained the facilities, the keys, and the designated parking area to me clearly in simple Japanese so I could understand. The bed was comfortable.

Easy check-in after 2 pm, drop box for early checkout. Combination and side door access at night. Large garage for motorcycle parking. Large lobby/common room. Nice Luggage storage room with free bike locks for large suitcases, lockers for backpacks, extra bathrooms and shower. All new construction inside, better beds then my APA room, small personal locker in bed area for wallets, phones. Free earplugs if you need for snoring guests. Discount coupons for local businesses in lobby. Directly across from train and bus station, so easy at The Stay!

The property is just opposite to the JR station, it’s so convenient :) The staff are really nice, they recommended some scenic spots nearby. And I like the kitchen corner and common area. It’s comfortable.

For a hostel/pension like this, the security system, doors, lockers, and safe were good. The staff were very polite, helpful and friendly (the northern hospitality at its best with constant happy smile), all of them. It’s right front of the train station, which is very convenient yet very quiet (since the station is the end of the line). Everywhere was immaculately clean.

This hostel is amazing! It is very clean and cozy, it feels like home. The man at the front desk was very friendly. I forgot a charger back and Ozaki was super helpful, shipping it to me immediately. I am glad that I stayed at this hostel and I would definitely return!
