"Kenji was a very nice host and his "guest house English" speaking was wonderful!! It is a perfect location if you are looking to wake up early and walk to the bamboo forest, you can be one of the first people there. Kenji also gave us recommendations of places to visit in the area that you otherwise may not have known about. "

A little bit disappointed that there is no smoking room even I have booked smoking room.😅"

"It was very special experience to stay at Japanese traditonal house with my family. It was a little bit far from the main sightseeing site but we were ok because we had a car. Kinkakuji was especially awesome."

"Property is nice and close to many attractions. There is also transportation (JR line) close by. Lots of food options and small shops. Close to Starbucks. Aquarium and railway museum just around the corner. 7-11 is just right beside hotel. Currency exchange machine at 7-11 as well. "
"We enjoyed our stay here. My daughter loved the onsen and traditional style of this hotel. Don't forget to take your shoes off before checking in! Free ramen after 9 pm and the breakfast buffet was a great deal on traditional Japanese breakfast items (you can pay separately at the hotel if you don't want every day). The room was clean and all toiletries provided. Would stay here again. "

"The check in experience was easy and though it wasn’t too difficult to get to the property was more out of the way than expected for where we were going. The mattresses were very uncomfortable, but the room size was huge and having a washer and dryer on site was very handy. "
