The Evergreen Hostel

This hostel was perfect for me as a solo traveler, and provided excellent value for the price. The Peace Memorial Museum and A-Bomb Dome, Hiroshima Art Museum, Hiroshima Castle are a short walk away, and there are two tram stations nearby. There's also an excellent okonomiyaki place just across the street. If you're staying here long term, there's a fully equipped kitchen for preparing food. Solo travel can get lonely but the staff were very friendly, and I appreciated how they got some of us guests together for a fun, memorable night out downtown. The futon/bunk bed was cozy and comfortable enough for the night. They provided small lockers for valuables and allowed me to leave my backpack at the hallway after check out. The female room is secured with a code. The only potential issue I see here is the limited number of toilets and showers should the place get crowded, but I had no problems with this during my stay. Also, bring your own towel. There's a sink/vanity area with hair dryers that's conveniently separated from the toilets/bathrooms, so you don't have to wait for other guests. I would stay here again should I find myself traveling alone in Hiroshima another time!
