We booked K's on a whim, as we just needed somewhere to stay, by the time we got off the Shinkansen to Hiroshima, and K's was one of a few, which were available that night.
We booked a private double room, with ensuite, as we found this wasn't much more expensive, for the two of us, than the price of beds in a shared room.
Our room was small but had enough space to feel comfortable and not cramped. It was perfectly clean and had everything we needed during our stay.
The staff on the front desk were so lovely and helpful, we had a couple of good chats with them (especially the lady, who complimented me on my pink hair and said she used to have green!) The common rooms were homely and I loved the 'try origami' books and paper available.
We were due to stay for two nights but ended up staying an extra one, as we were having such a nice stay - so thank you K's Hostel Hiroshima!

So glad we found this gem of a hostel!

Its got a great location close to the main train station and 7/11 around the corner. The rooms are pretty big and clean the beds are nice and thicc, they got those robot toilets too they where fun.  Turned out to be a great place to meet other travelers.

Great hostel, meet lots of cool people.

The best things about this place are the location and the staff. It's just off the main road connecting the train station with the Peace Park -- two tram stops or a short walk from the station, and a few stops or a half hour walk from the park. We took a private room with two bunk beds. The room was small but we stayed for one night, so it was OK. 

The staff were exceptionally helpful, they recommended a great place to have okonomyaki in the center of the city. It's called Okonomi  Mura, which is a building with entire 3 floors of different okonomiyaki restaurants -- not to be missed. It turned out to be one of the most fun and tasty meal experiences of our trip.

Hiroshima, in general, was a great surprise. Our main destination was the Peace Park and the museum, and we expected the city to be stern and gloomy, to match these main sites. Instead, it's young, full of energy and not depressing at all.

Great location, exceptionally helpful staff

Good hostel, well located and a friendly atmosphere, with very helpful staff. Decent facilities, including kitchen and laundry. Location is ok - walking distance to the downtown area and 10 minutes on foot to the station. We had a private room with en suite. Nothing fancy, and beds were uncomfortable but very clean and we otherwise we enjoyed our stay here. 

Good 

This is the 3rd K's House I have ever been staying after Kyoto and Takayama. I stayed for 3 nights for a triple sharing room and indeed I enjoyed the stay overall.
These are the pros in staying in this hotel
1. Lift facility is available. Easy to bring our luggage to our room.
2. Free wifi and coffee.
3.Location is good as it takes about 8 minutes walk from Hiroshima station.
4. Lawson is just around the corner.
5. Slipper is provided to the guest
6. The hostel is very clean and has a spacious common area for guests to rest, read and watch tv.
7. English spoken staff
8. Comfortable mattress
9. Can drop our luggage at the lobby on the arrival before check in and the staff brought our bags to the room when we came back for check in after 4pm

What I think it can be improved further:
1. The pillow is very soft. I need to fold it to have a better and more comfortable sleep.
2.  Limited common toilet/bathroom.
3. Air conditioning in our room auto stop and it is not cooling enough.
4. Need to put our pillow case on our won.
5. Towel is not provided but you can rent.

3rd K's House I have ever been staying and still recommended to stay for friends

Stayed here for two nights for 3 people in the Japanese style rooms. We were on level 3 room 306 with shared shower and bathroom. Both amenities were always very clean. Self laundry/dryer which costs 300 yen including laundry powder. 
The kitchen and Lounge area can get quite crowded as it is quite small but we mainly spent time away. The train station is about 10 mins walk away, staff are friendly and speak great English 

Clean and friendly staff 

Clean, hostel, well maintained. The Japanese private rooms are plenty spacious, especially if you put away the futons.  Toilet and washing facilities are clean and plentiful. Shared kitchen is well-equipped and there are two very reasonably priced washing machines.

Clean, airy hostel

Location is great - very close to Hiroshima station and a few blocks from the city centre. Right next to bus and tram stops. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Prices are very good.

Facilities are decidedly tired and not quite up to par with other hostels in the price range. Tiny laundry (two tiny washers and dryers - good luck getting a load of washing done when the hostel is at capacity!), no TV in the private rooms, peeling wallpaper etc. - none of these are deal-breakers by any means, but given what's on offer for around the same nightly rate elsewhere it's hard not to feel a bit short-changed.

Basic and homely

We had one night here in a double room. The room was very basic with a poor matress and pillow with a lot of noise through the window to the street, to the hallway and through the walls. However, the location close to the station and memorial park, shopping and eating is a huge advantage. The staff was also very nice and helpful, and the room was clean! 
I wouldn’t recommend it if you would stay in Hiroshima for several nights, but for a single or couple of nights the location and price is the winning argument.



Nice location and staff, but noisy

Its impossible to sleep in this hostel..I chose the place for its low cost. But got what I paid for..The other guests were all mostly loud Americans and europeans..Attracts the young party crowd looking for a crash pad..Problem is any noise made can be heard throughout the building...I felt like I was in a rock concert the entire night...YOu can hear  everything from the room next door, the bathroom, and the sink which is right outside the room..If you can't sleep with both very loud noises and lights turned on, you will find it impossible to get any sleep here.
