This hostel should be sued for sure.
Sue them for money! 
Lawyer will take this case. 
Maybe talk to an international community run by local government support for help.

Not doing anything and refuse to protect the guest's safety has to be reported. 
This place should be banned or penalized and punished by law. 

Do not stay in this hotel!
Sure I won't and my friends will know about this horrible illegal act of this
discriminating act on their guests. 

訴えるべきですよ！

完全な犯罪です！

This place is terrible and should be Shut DOWN!

A female traveler stayed here and another male guest spied on her while she was showering. She caught him in the act.  This is sexual harassment to a very serious degree. Furthermore, the hostel staff did absolutely nothing to hold the male guest accountable--Reina at the front desk refused to provide the perpetrator's name or even contact information of the hostel's manager so the female traveler could file some type of police report herself. So be very wary of this hostel (especially if you are a woman), as they condone sexual harassment against women.  Creating a safe and comfortable environment for ALL guests should always be a top priority, and it is not at this hostel.

Not safe for female travelers

I overheard another guest mention to the front desk that some creep peeped in on her in the shower. Reina at the front desk refused to provide his information so she could make a formal complaint and also refused to give the managers email.

Safety Issues

A female traveler staying at the hostel was victim to a male traveler watching her in the shower and the staff did NOTHING to help her report him or to help the victim. The safety of your guests should come first!

Not Safe for Women

Just stayed at this hostel, where this ass decided to push his head through the side of the shower curtain and watch me dry off naked. The girl at the front Reina Murasawa refused to give me his name, so I couldn't make a formal report, she also refused to give me the hostel managers information only this generic card. I feel violated,dirty, gross and nasty. 
I would have preferred to make a police report even though I know the police would do nothing, but still some accountability would be great. 
Please help me by sharing this post to not only make this pervert accountable, but to also warn other women who may encounter him in a similar situation.

Additionally: The place is dark and dingy, the beds are uncomfortable and you have to make up your own bed,  they aren't as guest friendly as other hostels in Tokyo, do yourself a favour and stay elsewhere.

Horrible place to stay ...

Good location close to the city centre, really close to JR Ryogoku station. In the end we stayed for 7 nights.  Bathrooms were clean, body soap and shampoo is provided in showers, hairdryer is in the bathroom. AC was working properly everywhere. Two common areas can help you socialise, the kitchen can get a little crowded at meal times. Reception is not open 24/7, staff was very helpful and they have a lot of information/tips for travelers in the lounge/reception area. They can rent you a padlock for the locker in the room and adapter for electric plugs (both for returnable deposit) However, when we visited they did not have enough adapters for EU/JP combination. Beds are pretty big, the mattress might be a bit too thin for someone. You can wash & dry your laundry on the top floor for approx 300 yen. We sometimes had issued with the connection to Wi-Fi. Of course it's a hostel, so you might get lound/snoring roommates and it might greatly impact your experience...

Good affordable hostel close to JR station

Anne Hostel Yokozuna is a pretty cool hostel, with a nice atmosphere. Everything is clean (if not brand new), the staff is nice and helpful and the immediate area is good for izakayas. The best thing about Yokozuna is really the location though. Ryogoku and Sumida is not central Tokyo, but it's only a 30 min walk to Akihabara, which very much is. Walking along the river is surprisingly peaceful, and Sumida is also really good for just wandering around Where Japanese People Live. I liked it a lot!  

Good base outside central Tokyo

Was there for two weeks during the month of June 2018, and everything was great, the best hostel I've tried in my life. The people are charming, helpful and welcoming, they provided me a map of Tokyo in French better than the one I bought in France. The bedrooms are clean, the beds are large and comfortable. You have two places to spend your time with the others, I've preferred the kitchen, you have everything you need. Really, i will be back soon. Domo arigato gozaimasu !

A superb place to discover a magnificent city

What I liked:
- staff are very friendly and helpful, they let us switch the room because we couldn't sleep the first night due to a snoring roommate (yes I know it's pretty normal to have loud and snoring roommates in a hostel but it was more like sawing a whole forest then snoring and I barely slept two  hours that night).

- the beds are very big

- bathrooms are clean (soap and shampoo are in the shower) 

I could continue... all in all it's a very good hostel, we stayed here the second time and would come back for sure 

The only thing to consider is that the hostel is next to the train tracks so it is not super quite

Very friendly and helpful staff

This is a very affordable hostel in the middle of Tokyo. Right across from the sumo stadium. The dorm rooms come with lockers big enough for valuables. There is a private light, PowerPoint and curtains for each guest. I did find the bed a bit hard though.
Two common areas which make it very easy to socialise. There is lots of information on their walls to keep you entertained. Staff were accomodating especially with getting me an extra pillow. Toilets and showers were clean and they provided body wash and shampoo. There are opportunities for people on working holiday visas too.
