This place is a good place to stay for a few nights. When I first stayed there, it had a nice layout, with a good shower room and toilet. The only negatives are the small steps (which is something I have seen in many Japanese Guest Houses), the creaky bed, and its location, as it takes 10 minutes to reach the nearby JR Station.

Check-in is confusing. After making a reservation online, you must first check in online (input personal information for each guest) the day before via a separate email from the management company, and only after the management confirms the check-in method (automatic check-in). lock number).However, this time, I didn't receive the first email until the day of the flight, so it took me a long time to check in.Here are some things that made me a little suspicious.① Are there two or three management companies?There were two contact details on the reservation site and one on-site, and I ended up calling all of them due to a problem, but one said, ``This is not my property,'' and the other said, ``I am directly managing the property.'' The management system was complicated, and I think there were some misunderstandings about emails because of this.②I think it can't be helped since it's a guesthouse where a lot of different people stay, but I was a little scared of having to enter everyone's personal information down to the last detail.The rooms are clean and cute, the location is good, and above all, it's cheap, so I think it's a very nice inn as long as you check in properly.

It's hard to find if you look for it at night 😅 The room is small but new. I think it's enough for 3 or 4 people as it's cheap. The stairs are steep so it can be difficult if you have a lot of luggage.
