A great and very affordable place. I got an entire room to myself for 2800 yen!Pros:close to Kii Tanabe station and ajikoji district (2-3 min walk)Spacious rooms and very clean.AffordableGreat hosts and english instructions for guesthouse wifi etc.Cons: close to train station and ajikoji district. You will hear a lot of cars, train noise, and maybe some rowdy party animals closing down the bars that are open late. Earplugs are essential.One toilet for entire guesthouse. Was one of two guests so not an issue but could be when busy.Easy to hear guests coming/going. Could be an issue when busy.Narrow entryway and foyer. For those doing the kumano kodo taking off hiking boots and maneuvering a hiking pack is tricky.

A bit minimalistic (shared bathroom and restroom) but otherwise very friendly, clean, with standard set of amenities (TV, WiFi, refrigerator) for this type of hotels. If you are doing hiking and have to stay for a night, this place has almost unbeatable price. Highly recommend.

Trip wouldn’t let me modify my booking to combine both days, but the manager kept my bookings of two days without making me check out and check back in. Very convenient

I expected this to be a bit dirty or run down simply because of the price, but I was completely wrong! I had the room entirely to myself and it was very clean and cozy. The manager explained everything so it would be easy to understand. …

First of all, I was surprised at how cheap the accommodation costs were! The landlady was friendly and nice. (Stayed on the 1st floor)・One room with 4 and a half tatami mats (for 1 person) on the 1st floor ・Kitchen ・Bathroom (treated as a shower ・Shampoo, conditioner, body wash, face wash included)・2 rooms (for 2 people or more) and toilets on both sides of the hallway on the 2nd floorthere is.It's a normal wooden house, so if you're on the 1st floor, you'll have to put up with the thuds and thuds from the upper floors. The rooms are equipped with TV, towels and toothbrushes. Considering the price, this is sufficient.All the people on the 2nd floor except me were foreigners, and in the hallway there was luggage of foreigners who wanted to go around Nakahechi empty-handed.

Very good value. We only stayed for 1 night. Room is clean, no smell at all, walking distance from train station. Plenty of food options around the area.It has fridge in the room! Perfect to store our rice ball from 7-11.Owner is kindly allow us to store our luggage without cost for 4-5 days during our kumano kodo hike.Lastly, we also impressed with the light in our room (not sure other room has same light), it allow adjustments of brightness and set to night/sleeping ambience mode.Its near the rail, you can hear the train, but the train doesn't run all night long.No key for the room, it does bother me a little, but japan probably the lowest crime country.

A contact lens was left in the room⤵️Hmm...I guess I didn't clean it. I guess I expected too much because I saw a nice person and reviews on the internet.I felt like disinfecting just because of the time of year.

There is no curfew (nearly so. You can borrow the key), so it's a convenient accommodation when you need to go out at night. I feel comfortable with the polite response. ▶The room is spacious, well-cleaned and clean. There is also a kitchenette, with simple cooking utensils and tableware available. ▶The building is a remodeled former private house, but you can feel the care that goes into making your stay a pleasant one. It's a bit disappointing that the facilities as a whole are a little cramped. ▶It may be suitable for staying for 23 to 45 days without going out.

I stayed here while walking the Kumano Kodo. It was cheap and I was able to relax in the large Japanese-style room. Unfortunately, there is no key in the room.

You can stay there without any hesitation. It's near the station, so you can hear the sound of the trains...(^^ゞ

Although the price was low, the room was spacious and clean, with a TV and hair dryer, and it was comfortable.The host was also friendly and easy to talk to.There are many supermarkets and places to eat near the station, so you won't have any trouble finding food.There was also free Wi-Fi and the speed was stable.The only thing that bothers me is that there is no lock in the room, so you have to carry your valuables with you, and there is a bar nearby, so it gets lively at night, so some people may be concerned about that.(I didn't really care though)

I think it's worth the price. It was nice to be able to stay in a large room at a low price, but the room was separated from other rooms by sliding doors. …
