Staff were kind and friendly and spoke good English. Common areas and facilities were neat and tidy but basic. Area is very quiet. The hostel itself is generally quiet but this (like always) depends on the other guests around you. The walls are pretty thin so if you are around noisy neighbours you will need earplugs. About a 10min walk to the nearest metro station. Otherwise a generally pleasant stay in Tokyo.

Best Budget Way to Stay in Tokyo!
The best budget way to stay in Tokyo while still having your own room and door! Some useful amenities on the first floor, clean bathrooms, warm showers with strong pressure, and friendly staff! They even graciously put our luggage in our room after we dropped them off for the day. How pleasant your stay is greatly depends on the respectfulness and quietness of others - keep this in mind if you are looking to stay here. Would definitely book again!

Short stay
We had a good experience here. Checked in rather late in the night, maybe around 10pm. The person at the reception desk was very friendly and explained all about the place. We just came in late at night and left early in the morning, so we didn't experience too many of the other things the hostel provides, but enjoyed a clean room and very clean shared bathroom and shower with necessities provided. It was very quiet inside while we slept and I didn't wake during the night to any noise.
It is a little bit of a walk from the train station to the hostel, maybe ~10m with bags, but there are elevators outside to go up and down the pedestrian overpass to get to the place, so it is very easily accessible.
The neighborhood is nice and quiet and yet has interesting stores around.

This is a very good choice. ;) The place is still very new when we visited Tokyo.
It was a good experience staying in plat hostel. They offer rooms instead of just beds which is a great plus. We could pack our luggage at night without bothering others. And there's a elevator that saves a lot of trouble of carrying heavy luggage upstairs and downstairs.
On top of that, the staffs are nice and approachable (open to a conversation if you want to talk to someone). They are helpful and friendly.
The only small disadvantage might the distance to the nearest metro/ train station, like 7-10 min walk.
Overall it's a great place to stay in Tokyo. I will definite come visit here next time!
