The most gorgeous little traditional home for our group. This accommodation was a highlight of our trip. Be mindful that it is quite far from the closest station, and will take around 40 minutes to walk into the centre of town. Floor sleeping arrangements were actually quite comfortable!

This house is a real gem loved by its owners. Everything was spotless, staff changed towels and take out litter every day. All facilities were working. It was a real pleasure to live there for four days. We could also leave our luggage longer after checking out. Highly recommend!

Nothing, everything was perfect.

This is a lovely traditional Japanese home that had everything that you might need! We absolutely loved our stay here, and the staff were very accommodating and easy to communicate with!

We had a great stay. The house was spacious, clean and well equipped. The hosts were great, coming to take out the trash and even bringing us water every day.

Overall very pleasant, traditional living experience. A bit distant if carrying the luggage from public transit.

Very quiet inside the house, couldn't hear noise between up and down levels. But sounds from adjacent neighbours were very clear.

Great layout, structure, facilities, yard. The bike is very nice!

Sceneries is not very close to this area. Usually we need to wait for bus to go to places.

So much space for our family! We loved the cleanliness, the nice deep bath, the kitchen, the location and charm. We will definitely book again!

No kitchen and washer dryer for cloth missing

The short version is that the place has a great location, is large and spacious, and has everything you need. A big group can stay here without feeling cramped. Unfortunately, there are many things that don’t meet expectations. This is definitely not a bad place to sleep. We were torn between giving it 3 or 4 stars, but ended up with 3 because we’ve become used to spotless accommodations earlier on our trip. First, the positives. We got a warm welcome, and service is easily accessible. There are tatami mats in all rooms. There are toilets both upstairs and downstairs. There are 5 rooms that can be rearranged to have bedrooms wherever you prefer. The kitchen is relatively well-equipped. There’s a lovely private garden. There’s also a super handy "garage" where you can store bikes and umbrellas. Towels are replaced and trash is taken out daily.

Unfortunately, there are many issues with cleanliness. There was a large amount of visible mold on the bathroom walls. We mentioned it, and the bathroom was disinfected and cleaned the same day. All the mold appeared to be removed. Judging by the chlorine marks, this has happened before, and they said it’s normal for the season. The service to resolve it was excellent. The kitchen sink is dirty. Some days, trash is taken out and towels and supplies are neatly laid out; other days, everything is just thrown into the bathroom in a big bag. One of the rooms faces the street. We’re used to thin walls and windows in Japan, but here we constantly have to check if the window is open—it sounds like it is. The glass panes are loose and rattle in the wind. There are no blackout curtains, so don’t forget to bring a sleep mask and earplugs. Upstairs, there's a large room that can be partially divided with paper screens, but it’s open at the top—probably because of the low ceiling. That’s a big drawback, as it’s quite dark up there and the support beams are dark too, so we hit our heads hard several times.
