가정집같은 숙박업소에서 편안하게 쉬고 싶으시다면 추천
주인분이 한국어 사용이 가능하셔서 어머니같이 편안하게 챙겨주십니다.
정감있는 숙박업소로 이용에도 전혀 불편함이 없었습니다.
주변 지역도 깨끗하고 조용하며
기차도 환승요금없이 시내중심부로 쉽게 들어갈 수 있습니다.

한국인이 운영하는 게스트 하우스
게스트 하우스를 호텔과 같은 수준으로 평가할 수는 없겠죠. 한국인 입장에서 주인 아주머니의 친절함이 좋았습니다. 전철 역에서 가까웠던 점도 만족스러웠던 점 중에 하나였습니다.

Don’t do it.
Couldn’t arrange late check-in despite the booking saying late access available until midnight and we called ahead. They cancelled our booking without letting us know and refused a refund. They then wanted us to pay an additional 300,000 yen if we wanted to stay. Last minute did noting to assist and now we are stranded without accom and 210,000 yen out of pocket. Obviously avoid.

교통편이 안좋고 깨끗하지 않고 공용욕실 및 화장실이 불편
교통편이 불편하고 숙박시설도 좋지 않고 주인이 동남아분이셔서 현지 교통도 잘 모르고 편하지 않았음. 주말이라 다른 곳은 방이 없어서 어쩔 수 없이 예약함. 공용 욕실과 공용화장실을 사용해야 하는데 사용이 편리 하지 않았음.

Scam hotel/guest house
Worst experience EVER in all my extensive travels. No heat; aggressive unfriendly landlady who promised to cancel reservation and didn't; run down shabby looking house and interior; neighborhood the same; very difficult to find. Unfriendly money-hungry Landlady charges for EVERYTHING including items small and not listed as requiring payment, felt like I was being scammed (and have spent lots of previous time in Japan). EVERY other place I have stayed in Japan has been wonderful and helpful. STAY AWAY!
