The location was very good.I went during the peak season, so when regular hotels were too expensive, there was no place better.The advantage is that the owner is very friendly,Very clean and well maintained accommodation,Very good location, private room with attached bathroomThe downside is that there is no elevator, so getting to the 4th floor is difficult and inconvenient. The place to shower is on the 1st floor, but there are only 2 shower booths for men. The common space is hot because there is no air conditioning, and the soundproofing is poor. Still, very good value for money.

We stayed here for 1 night. The host is super lovely and helpful. Though she can’t speak fluent English, but she try to speak as much as she could. The room is clean and equipped with toilet. There are shared bathrooms which also very clean. We will certainly come back! Forgot to mentioned, the location is superb and nearby department store and shops!

Comfortable place (western room), pleasant, and incredibly friendly and attentive managers. I loved this place! I wish I had found it sooner, as it's much better than staying in hostels, and the price isn't that far off. In addition, they are always open to negotiating the price.Super convenient location, close to shopping malls, lots of restaurants, nightlife, and Beppu station. I don't want to leave haha

Japanese style guest houseThe location is excellent, with Beppu Station, Takegawara Onsen, Kaimonji Onsen, restaurants, and a supermarket nearby, making it a convenient base for your trip.Since it's a guest house, there are no amenities or yukatas, but the rooms are pure Japanese-style rooms with tatami mats, and the common spaces are also well-maintained and clean.(Amenity charges apply)You can also connect to Wi-Fi.It was a high quality inn run by a gentle general and a kind landlady.⚠There is an affiliated parking lot near the inn. (day/¥500)

4 consecutive nights in November 2023. 10 minutes walk from Beppu Station. This is a small and homely hotel specializing in overnight stays, conveniently located 1 minute from Oita Kotsu Kitahama bus stop. A couple in their 60s opened the business five years ago, and it has a very family-like atmosphere, which they developed through trial and error.There is no hot spring, only showers, and no elevator. Although there are many inconveniences, I think the kind personality of the owner couple makes it worth it. Kaimonji Onsen and Takegawara Onsen, which are inexpensive and run by the city, are a 5-minute walk away. Supermarket (Tokiwa) is 2 minutes walk away. The coast overlooking Beppu Bay is directly behind.Prices are also cheap and reasonable.This is a recommended inn.
