Excellent experience is provided for international travelers and domestic as well.- nice rooms with Japanese style beds on tatami-mats, clean toilets .-Local and historical info for travelers told by the master helps our travel arrangements in a given time greatly. His knowledge in the field of ancient times here (that means something origin about Japan) is really deep.-you may enjoy Japanese whiskys in the private bar at night.I would say , this guest house is greatly recommendable if you are looking for nice, delicious , valuable, historical and local experience that is hard to find in other places in Japan.

The best guesthouse I've had in Japan. The accommodation is spacious and well equipped. And you will find a lot of documentation on the activities to do in the region. The owner will even show you the best routes for your visits. We were happy to be able to benefit from a preview tasting of whiskey and Japanese umeshu. Great stay!
