Needs to be little more cleaning

Very friendly staff and very convenient to many restaurants, etc. 2 blocks from beach as well. But the beds were uncomfortable and the rooms needs a deep cleaning. Convenience, location and staff can’t be better though.

This was one of my favorite hostel experiences ever. Makoto, Ana, and Karen are the nicest staff ever, we extended out stay multiple days because we met other amazing people staying at this hostel and became very familiar with Kamakura. Kamakura should be a multi-day trip and you should definitely stay at Iza Kamakura House if you want a really comfortable and laid back place to stay.

Staff was very friendly and gave some great advice on local food and attractions. All around great stay

Great place, close to beach, lovely staff, cute cat who lives outside (not very friendly (to me at least))

The hostel is relatively clean. I have stayed in many hotels, and this one is the most uncomfortable. There are no iron beds as you can see in the picture. When I checked in, there were six iron beds, no curtains, and no privacy at all. If you move them slightly, they make a sound. If someone gets off the bed or sits on it, they will feel the shaking.

唯一良い点をあげるとトイレにウォッシュレットが付いていた点、トイレは割と綺麗にされていました。 しかしその他は清潔なイメージはなく、特に共用シャワールームに関しては脱衣所の床も湿気でズルっと滑るほどで浴室の扉は開閉がままなりません。至る所にカビが繁殖しており挙句の果てにシャンプーボトルにはボディソープが入っておりました。髪の毛がバシバシになり、不清潔さに嫌悪感を抱きながら眠りました。

Staff is very friendly and facilities well maintained. Very quiet area with nearby beach and close walk to Enoden tram which can take you to Kamakura station or Enoshima in the opposite direction. Very close to some must visit sights with shopping and dining nearer to the station

Very clean and cute shared bathrooms and common areas in this house. We had a private room, which was nice as a couple, but there seemed to be other guests quietly socializing in the dining space/bar from time to time. Shower amenities are provided (even some extras, like sunscreen and face wash were in the women's restroom). Bring your own towels for showering though, otherwise you can pay to borrow some. We appreciated the hose outside to rinse off after the short walk back from the beach. Also, there's a convenience store right nearby, which is really nice because most restaurants were closed by the time we wanted dinner. No refrigerator in the room (didn't check if there's one available elsewhere) and eating/drinking is only allowed in the common area- a bit inconvenient, but pretty standard for this style of accommodation. Really nice, interesting, and attractive structure overall, the architecture and layout is unique and welcoming. We enjoyed our experience at Iza and would stay here again!
