Lovely house - but a little hard to find and very few shops in the area. Some tea bags would've made it perfect! Great it's so close to To-Ji

If you can accept some inconveniences of an old house, you will not be disappointed with the experience of an ancient house.The mattress in the room on the second floor has collapsed and it is recommended to replace it.

Accommodation is hard to find, in an alley with nothing clearly marked. The house has 2 floors, suitable for coming in groups of many people. But the upper floor is a bit high. Difficult to go up and down because of the steep stairs. The ground floor has a bed. and has a fully equipped kitchen for cooking
