1-star budget hostel with free daily amenities in Tokyo's Ueno district

Amenities & Services

Hostel Jaz offers free daily toiletries-including toothbrush, toothpaste, comb, razor, slippers, and a towel-available once per day from reception. The shared kitchen on the first floor contains a refrigerator, microwave, toaster, and hot water dispenser for guest use. Coin-operated washing machines are located on the first floor, separate from sleeping areas to minimize noise at night.

Accommodation

Each guest receives a capsule-style bunk bed with a privacy curtain, a personal locker with a built-in code lock, and two USB charging ports by the pillow. The dormitory rooms contain lockers that can fit a 20-inch suitcase and a backpack, though the locker doors have a large gap that allows visibility inside. No elevator is available-the building has 4 floors, and the male dorm is located on the third floor.

Location

The hostel sits about 10 to 15 minutes on foot from Ueno Station (Iriya exit) on the JR Yamanote Line and from Inaricho Station on the Ginza subway line. A Lawson convenience store is 50 meters away, and a 7-Eleven is directly across the street. Ueno Park, with its museums and zoo, is a short 10-minute walk from the building.

Services & Safety

The building is equipped with 24-hour security, CCTV in common areas, fire extinguishers, security alarms, and smoke alarms. Lockers in the dormitory rooms and a safety deposit box at reception provide storage for valuables. The front desk offers free earplugs upon request, and the hostel provides a backdoor entrance for guests returning after the 10 pm front-door curfew.

Unique Experiences

Staff have invited all guests to a free barbecue party on the roof, which included drinks at no extra charge. The front desk provides printed lists of local restaurants near the hostel, including halal food options within walking distance. Guests can borrow plates and cutlery from reception, and daily towel replacement is included in the room rate.

“This spot is very affordable, a short walk to Ueno station; inside, expect a basic but comfy bunk with a personal locker, plus free washing machines, which is helpful, in my opinion. Keep in mind that there's no elevator, and the location may require some walking; still, it's a solid option if you're looking for budget-friendly accommodation.”
