It was a great experience staying in a traditional Japanese home and the hostess , Adachi san was lovely and welcoming and she spoke good English which was really helpful. We chose the Japanese breakfast option and it was delicious especially the Agedashi tofu which was one of the best we've had ! The only reason we have not given it 5 stars is because the property was in a residential area and the street it was on was particularly narrow so the taxi was not able to drive right up to the door and so left us on the main intersection and we had to contend with lugging our luggage down the street to look for it. Having said that it wasn't that far nor hard to find and if you chose a smaller taxi, it would be able access the street. Bearing in mind it is a traditional home, and as the accomodation is on the 1st floor, it also meant taking our luggage up some steep stairs too. A small price to pay for a unique accomodation and there was even laundry facilities and a kitchenette . The place was also immaculately clean !

Not only was the property clean, easy to locate, walkable and quiet but the lady who runs the hotel is an absolute sweetheart. The breakfast she made us was better than a lot of the food I was eating at restaurants. I would recommend this stay to anyone.

Booked this a a traditional Japanese experience for my family. Our host was lovely and very attentive giving us cold drinks and cold towels because it was so warm outside. There was a choice of Japanese or Western breakfast. Both were excellent, especially the Japanese which had fish, omelette, noodles and tea. Quiet area but restaurants nearby.

Dicht bij het station en 10 minuten met de bus. Weg bij alle toeristen maar alles in de buurt. Wandelen naar de deer park is goed te doen. Ontvangst is zeer vriendelijk. Geen luxe maar authentiek Japans. Wij vonden het erg leuk. Het ontbijt voor de volgende dag kun je kiezen uit Europees of Japans. Logisch voor ons om Japans te kiezen. Deze was bijzonder lekker en meer dan voldoende. Al met al een heel fijn verblijf en wil hierbij de host nogmaals bedanken.
