Loved everything about this place. Really cute and thoughtful design. Even offer hot water bottles to take to bed. Nice little bar downstairs. Super nice hosts. Great little sento nearby. Decent bikes to rent for 500 jpy p/d

They closed for a week to do maintenance. Otherwise, I would have stayed longer

Super kindhearted environment where you immediately feel at home and want to stay longer. I started to work in the kitchen and couldn’t leave :) There is a bunch of details that make your day. Quite many interesting events take place & seems to be a place where young talented people meet & the staff is great! Thank you :)

Very accommodating friendly staff. The room was spacious and clean.

Booking site did not tell us that towels weren’t included, nor limited staff time. It was inconvenient as we arrived late at night.
