    I recently stayed at Kitchen Hostel Ao for a few nights while exploring Okinawa. The location was perfect, near the train station and bus stop, making it easy to get around. The interior of the dorms was nicely designed and the security was good. I appreciated the layout of the dorms, with the locker area and toilets separate from the entrance to minimize noise. The breakfast every morning was a great start to the day, with a variety of tasty options.

    Couldn't recommend this hotel more.

    The hostel is conveniently located within walking distance of popular tourist attractions and the main metro line. the Hawaiian music playing in the dorms adds a unique and enjoyable atmosphere to the stay. the strong wifi throughout the property ensures that guests can stay connected at all times.

    The limited social area makes it difficult to interact with other travelers and create a lively atmosphere.

    The hostel is conveniently located, with a 10-minute walk from the monorail stop and near convenience stores and restaurants. the dorm rooms provide privacy with small capsule-like beds, complete with curtains, shelves, and hooks. the hostel offers a clean and comfortable environment, with spacious shared bathrooms and ample facilities such as towels, house shoes, and toiletries. the staff is friendly and helpful.

    The seating area downstairs closes at midnight, limiting access to those who wish to work or use their laptops late at night.

    I recently stayed at Kitchen Hostel Ao during my trip to Naha. It was a fantastic experience! The enclosed cafe was a great place to hang out until midnight, and there was even an area for eating, drinking, and talking after midnight. The beds were spacious and separated with wooden panels, ensuring privacy. The curtains were amazing at blocking out all light. The hostel was modern, spacious, and extremely clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

    I highly recommend this hotel. It is an excellent place to stay in Naha.

    As backpackers, we loved the spacious and well-ventilated dorm at the Kitchen Hostel. the bed nooks were comfortable and private with light-blocking curtains. Having a light and power socket in the sleeping nook was a great convenience. the common area was beautifully designed, and it was convenient to buy a delicious breakfast or dinner there. the shower facilities were also well-equipped. We also appreciated the helpful and kind receptionist who assisted us with restaurant reservations. Despite the bad weather caused by a typhoon, the hostel remained fantastic and we would definitely come back for more exploration.

    Felt relaxed, no complaints at all.
