The room is leaning more towards spacious for an average Japanese room. You can hear the waves of the ocean during the day and we liked the fact that the laundry machine can be used freely. Note that this side of Kawana is a quiet place and has hardly any facilities during spring. You need to climb up the hill to visit restaurants and shops.

During our stay there was a lot of noise from our nieghbours. Once we even needed to point them that their music was to loud. But you can even hear people talking, so the walls seem very thin. The key-cafe is something we didn't appreciate at all. I accidently was given a wrong combination, but what's worse is that we didn't had access to WiFi, therefore we couldn't contact them. Luckily there were other guests that could provide us the WiFi password and we were happy that the owners reacted promptly. My advice to the owners is to provide the WiFi password at the entrance at the check-in counter. This way people can easily contact you if something is wrong.

The location is nice. There are busses about every hour. If you can walk up steps you can be at Kawana station in about 15 minutes and the views are great. A small mall with fast food and stores is within 30 minutes walk. The beach is beautiful. There is a pier to look off of. The beach consists of tumbled pebbles and the water is crystal clear. As for the room it is clean and comfortable. There was a good size tub and shower room. The bathroom seemed new and modern. Only about 50 meters from the water, the hotel was quiet both inside and out. I highly recommend this hotel as an inexpensive option for those visiting Mt. Omuro and the Jogasaki Coast.

Nothing.

Good price. I enjoyed the small village it was in and the nearby beach.

I didn't realize that I had to notify the hotel a couple days before that I needed a parking spot. There was no one to speak to when I arrived and I didn't receive a helpful response to my email. So I had nowhere to park. Luckily, I was able to park at the beach without my car getting towed or fined but it didn't seem like that would also be an option for visitors year round.

Location is great! 1 min walk to the beach, location is super quiet. but you probably want to drive to the hotel, because there is not many convenient stores or restaurants around. It is very easy to communicate with the owner. Room is big enough for two people, bathroom is new and spacious, bed is comfortable.

Inside the room, all the surface is clean enough, but I think there is a lot of area that the cleanliness can be improved. For example the, lobby, the hallway, the staircase, and under the beds.

Its a great place for a base, easy to drive down to Shimoda ( you will need a car to stay there). Dolophin beach is great for families with small kids, no waves, plenty of fish too see as well.

The walls are very thin, if it is full, you will hear the people around you. I had to bang on my neighbor's door harshly as their group was talking very loudly at 11:30 PM. ( Not at 10:30 and the rules state be quiet after 23:00)

Straightforward self check-in, clean room, peacefull. Next to the beach and diving club and a bus stop.

Quite a few rules and direction that other hotels do without as they are self evident. No stores or cafés in the vicinity that work after 7pm, bus is infrequent.

It was easy self-service to access the room. The room was clean and the aircon was cold. The beach is a five minute walk away. The stars were beautiful at night!

I wish it had a microwave.

Very clean

A bit far from the train station

Very nice place, just next to the beach

The double bed is a bit small

Clean & quiet place
