Delightful week at here, it was exceeded my expectations despite the affordable price. Masami and the team were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The hostel itself is clean and well-maintained.
About luggage storage: available starting from 6am (access the building via underground train station entrance, not from the ground level) to 11pm.
Check in: After 3pm
Curfew: building was locked during 11pm until next day 6am for security reasons.

Overall this place is in a good location that's not far from Iidabashi Station. But its biggest flaw is its strict curfew from 11pm-6am.
I am going to start off with the positives about this place:
The dorms are really clean and the beds are comfortable. The other plus is that there is a communal bath which is great to have after a long day of travelling. You also get a really nice view of Tokyo since you are on the 18th floor of the building.
The negatives:
The curfew from 11pm to 6am did make my stay here a bit unpleasant. I understand that this was not a decision made by management of the hostel but the private owners of the building. It personally did disrupt some plans I had. While I acknowledge it is partially my fault for not reading ahead I did wish this hostel would clearly mark this curfew in advertisements and listings. I was only told about this curfew a few days after my booking via email.
Overall as hostels go, this place is really clean and well maintained. I paid about 3500 yen to stay for one night so it was really good value. The staff at the desk are really nice and professional. They try their best to make your stay comfortable.
The curfew I felt was a bit unreasonable. Good place to stay if you don't have plans past 11pm.

40前のサラリーマンですが、東京出張の際に好奇心で宿泊してみました。
案の定外国の方がほとんどでしたが、とても楽しいです。お部屋もトイレもお風呂もキレイで何不自由なく過ごせましたし、夜は疲れてたのもありますがカーテンを閉めたらすぐに寝れました。
素泊まりのプランでしたが朝食ビュッフェが気になり、当日にお金を払って食べました。これも770円にしては最高で、健康的な食事を外国の方に囲まれながらとるのは、非日常そのもの。最高に楽しい経験でした。
日本のホテルに慣れてる方だと難しいかもしれませんが、バックパッカーされてたような方だと懐かしさもあり楽しめると思います。
駅直結なので便利ですし、是非また行きたいです。

Honestly, this is the best place I have been too regarding 3 stars or lower hotels/hostels. Services in Japan are somewhat very different from the rest of the world. Kind staff, quiet place, respectful people. I live almost everything here. The room is spacious, the bathrooms are sparking clean and big, you’ll have great showers here. The toilets are also super clean, thanks to the staff and bidets are always available. The room lacks of table but you can always find one in a common place.

ユースホステルの範疇で言えば、都心の駅近で安価で宿泊でき、施設に特段の不満はありませんし、周囲には飲食店も多く、スーパーもあって利便性も高いので立地条件はこの上なしです。
ただ、たまたま私だけなのか分かりませんが、平日に利用するとほぼ毎回19階の1917号室に泊まることになり、20時頃から上の階で机か椅子を引き摺る音が響き出し、22時頃からその頻度と音量が酷くなり、2段ベッドの上が割り当てられてしまうと結構びっくりする音量なので、治るまで寝るのにひと苦労。どうにかならんものかと利用する度に感じてしまうのが唯一残念なところです。
