I found this guesthouse after searching for it because I wanted to go to the morning service at Hasedera Temple. He accompanied me to the morning gongyo, which gave me a deeper experience than just participating.At the inn, we received a lot of advice about sightseeing in Nara. The couple's travel records were kept in a file, which was very nice.There are no shops between the nearest Hasedera Station and the guesthouse. There are convenience stores and supermarkets at Sakurai Station, so we recommend purchasing food before arriving at Hasedera Temple. The accommodation is fully equipped with microwaves, tableware, etc. The toast and coffee we had for breakfast were very delicious.

I used it on a solo trip.Since it was a spontaneous trip, I made a reservation on the same day, but they were very accommodating and very helpful.The rooms and common spaces were very clean and I felt like I was staying at my grandma's house, so it was a comfortable stay.Even beginners can feel at ease, as they will accompany you on the morning practice at Hasedera Temple and will teach you a lot about the process of practice and the history of Hasedera Temple. Also, I didn't have any plans in mind for the second day, but when I asked about recommended shrines and temples, I was surprised to find that he quickly wrote down his schedule for the day and suggested it. Thanks to you, I was able to enjoy my time even after checking out and was able to enjoy Nara to the fullest.It was a little inconvenient that there were no supermarkets or convenience stores in the area, but I was told about a delicious udon restaurant, so I didn't have any trouble finding food.Chiang Rai coffee in the morning was so easy to drink that I drank it black for the first time...I couldn't help but buy one as a souvenir.I found a wonderful inn and fell in love with Nara even more. I would like to continue to take care of you when you visit Hasedera Temple or do the morning service.

Unbelievable experience. If your in the Kyoto/Osaka area or just in Japan at all you need to come and stay here. Shingo is a legend he took us up to the local temple to experience morning prayer which is a must! We will definitely be back

I used it with my work staff to see the peonies at Hasedera Temple. In one word, it's wonderful. The personality of the owner couple was also wonderful. We rented it out for 6 people. We brought all our drinks and food and had a party in the living room and dining room on the first floor. There was a complete set of tableware, including a rice cooker, toaster oven, and microwave. There is also a hot plate, so it seems like you can also do grilled meat. You can really cook anything yourself. The bathroom has two beautiful shower rooms. The toilet also had two clean washlets. There were three bedrooms on the second floor. The stairs are a little steep, but there are handrails. The floor plan is like a normal home, only partitioned by sliding doors. Isn't it best to come with friends you feel comfortable with? It seemed like 10 people could easily stay there. I misunderstood the check-out time and it was past 10 o'clock, but they kindly sent me off. There is space for two cars in the parking lot, and I was very grateful that I was able to park for free even after checking out and visiting Hasedera Temple. This is a great deal for 5000 yen per person! I would like to use it again in all seasons. thank you very much.

The guesthouse Ittan is super clean and comfortable, very centrally located, only 10 minutes walking from famous Hasedera Temple. Hasedera town is a quiet nostalgic little town, away from all the city hustle!
