Very good guest house!!Everything was very clean, comfortable, and spacious. All the equipment seem quite new. The location is really good and moreover there were three bicycles available for free.PS : For me, I could find only two little things to complain about: the wifi, because it was a bit low some times, and the lack of good tables to study or work. Also, I think the tables' settings are too tight because the armchairs are too big. It looks fancy but not really practical. Just one basic table with normal chairs instead of a fancy one could be a plus.

Check-in is from 6 PM to 10 PM, but I don't know when they will arrive. I contacted Agoda and they just told me to wait until they arrive.On the 2nd floor, I was sitting at a round table on a chair that looked like it had been picked up from somewhere and was waiting endlessly. I stopped a person passing by and asked how I could check in. Oh my god, this person was an employee. It was only then that they responded.If a person is sitting, shouldn't we ask why they are sitting?Even if you want to ask about accommodation or ask for help, there is no way to do it unless you happen to run into it.The place is dark and has a haunted atmosphere.The only advantage is that bike rental is free. Of course, there was no guidance on this. It rained so I couldn't ride.I contacted Agoda after the first day, but there was no response from the owner.I've been to Japan many times, but in terms of service, it's one of the worst.There are many accommodations with good locations and good service at this price.

It's clean and cosy, it it relatively quiet so keep that in mind. Owner seems really nice and I would rent the place just to be able to use the bikes

Facilities wise is good. The guesthouse located at a very quiet suburban area although it is near to public transport stations, once past evening it will be super eerie, dark and quiet. The dorm rooms are also gloomy and spooky. The corridors and common rooms are too quiet and eerie. Most importantly, something is spooky and unusual in the shower room. Can feel some “presence” within the toilet area, which is really uncomfortable.Walking distance to Family Mart is about 5-8 mins, 5-10mins walk to train station.
