The host was super kind, warm, and helpful and made our stay very pleasant. The building itself was really beautiful and larger than it seems at first. The room was immaculately clean and the futons were extremely comfortable. The bathrooms were spotless and the shower/ bathroom has a small laundry area and lots of place to change/ dress in a dry place. The coin-operated washing machine and dryer worked perfectly and actually dried my clothes without leaving it damp. The location is also really convenient and in a beautiful area in town, just 15min walk from the fish market/ JR station and aboit 1km to the Orthodox Church and the park. You can't miss the bay while walking there too. I highly recommend this place and if I ever visit Hakodate again, I would stay at this place again. It really exceeded my expectations and was so reasonably priced too.

Pension Jokura is very warm and welcoming. The couple hosting is lovely and friendly, will make you feel at home. I stayed in a single Japanese room and was perfect, spacious and comfortable. There are shared bathrooms and shower divided for males and females and although the pension was almost full I never had to wait more than a few minutes to use them. There are also 4 shared sinks, more than enough for everyone. The location perhaps it's the only element to check before depending on you plans:the zone is great as it's less than 10mins walking from the main attractions of the city such as red brick building, old town hall or even the mount Hakodate ropeway, but is not too near the station (note I'm referring to the JR station, the shin-Hakodate is far northern and not in the city). There are tram or bus available but worth noting that when I left, the ghost gave me a ride to the station, saving me almost half an hour.

The location is really good, not far from everything. The couple is really friendly and helped us where they could. There was a washing machine and a dryer, which was really good. Their english is really good which helped us as tourists. Thank you again for the nice present and the ride to the train station.

A few small things were improvable. For example t he motion sensor which switched on a really bright light in the hall woke me and my partner up when I just wanted to do a quick pee in the night. A small night light would've been better. Also there was a really disturbing bright light from outside which ran all the night.

Highly recommended. Worth to stay here. Location is very good. Free parking. Walkable to all hot spots. Beautiful big house, so nice decoration, very clean and completed of toiletries and towel. The hosts are so kind and helpful. They said sorry for the room thus small space, actually not at all and it was enough for me to put two big luggages. If you know how to adjust it. Most important, the mattress is so comfy and have a good sleep. Please don't miss this place out.

No comment from me... All just good..

Our stay was great! The Pension Jokura is a little gem run by awesome people! The interior is super unique and there are lots of things to discover. The rooms are clean and the beds are comfortable. The surrounding offers everything from small restaurants to various cafes. The waterside and the cable car to Mt. Hokadate are also very close by. There is even a drug store/supermarket across the street.

Everything was fine :)

The pension is about 15 minutes from the station. You take a tram and walk 6 minutes. The host is very friendly. I had a good laugh talking to her, especially when she was trying to teach me some Japanese phrases. She gave me a present too, which was kind. The house is gorgeous, lots of wood and other items of interest. I found it peaceful. The shower and toilet are shared. Everything is exceptionally clean. My futon was extremely comfortable to sleep on and the room was spacious. Most of the points of interest are within about 15 minutes walking distance. On my last evening, I was offered a lift to the station, which I initially declined but was eventually happy I accepted because it was raining the next morning!

I had an enjoyable experience so I liked everything.

This is an absolute gem of a place! We had a large, comfortable Japanese style room, with private 'shared facilities', access to tea, coffee, fridge, laundry etc. The hosts make this feel like a home stay. They are so kind and welcoming, and the little gifts are a gorgeous touch. It is a very convenient location for visiting all sights around Hakadate. Excellent value for money - highly recommended!

Nothing at all - it was perfect!

We really enjoyed the people as cliche as that is. The hosts gave us wonderful directions and even drove us to the top of the mountain! We would definitely go back again and the charm of the house was especially noteworthy

I wish I could say something, but I don't have anything I didn't like. Maybe the location isn't the easiest from the mains station, but I liked how it was more residential. It's close to tram so not too bad.

This was one of our favourite stays in Japan. The couple running it are so kind and friendly and attentive (they even gave us souvenir chopsticks with our names on!). The decor is quirky and cute and the rooms are super spacious. Bathroom facilities are great and the traditional sleeping set-up is really comfy (if you've never tried it before, I'd recommend).

Nothing, it was really perfect. You do have a slight worry about coming in too late, in case you would disturb the owners, but I don't think they'd mind (also Hakodate is not a particularly late-night town).

A drink served on our arrival, which made us feel welcome. A lot of details and small displays make it like a warm family house, cosy! The sofa in the lounge is leather and the dining table/chairs are hard wood, good quality! The senor system in the toilet makes the toilet seat lift up automatically when you walk in, brilliant! Free parking! Microwave provided. Only 100 yen were charged on washing machine/dryer for 60 minutes, very resonable! This was the only place in my 2-week Hokkaido trip I found providing 2ply soft toilet roll, amazing! When we checked-out, the owner gave us personalised gifts. We felt sorry for ourselves we could not stay there a bit longer to enjoy all the benefits.

It's a bit too close to the tramline but the service was not frequent at night, no disturb on our sleeping.
