I booked at Tomato because of its good location and lack of curfew but I regretted it as soon as I stepped in. I spent 6 nights in the dorm room and could barely sleep The walls seem to shake everytime someone walks down the hallway and the absence of insulation let you hear everything going on the guest house (on Saturday nights you can hear people going in and out all night). In one week, they never cleaned the dorm room once nor changed the bedsheets. And, they give you only one bedsheet and a pillow cover so it means that you have to sleep in futon cover in which people have slept before you...
The kitchen is old and small. No chairs or tables, so you have to eat standing up! The toilets and showers look dirty at anytime of the day or the night (they undoubtely are...)

The most INCREDIBLE thing is that the staff (a bunch of careless students) had a very loud party on Saturday night until 2 am. And they were smoking (which is strictly prohibited to the guests).
So, if even the staff doesn't care, what more can I say?

This is the worst guest house I've stayed at in Japan. I won't recommend it to anyone.

that looks like a lovely guest house...I would like to stay there if I get a chance
