Very nice owners and extremely comfortable bed in typical rooms with tatami. Located in the historic district of Kanazawa and close to all amenities, excellent in the evening for finding a restaurant without going too far.

Stayed 2 nights. Received a lovely warm welcome from our hosts, despite very limited language crossover. Traditional minshuku and rooms, in a beautiful part of town close to the river. …

Very nice experience in ancient Japan style apartment with Tatami and Futon. The property is located in the geisha district and is very well connected as it is very close to the JR bus stop, free for Japan Rail Pass holders. The owners speak English and are very kind, they booked us a taxi for the following day. Also worth trying because the Futon is very comfortable and good for your back.
