Used in CLS Kochi 2024 First Bonito Edition. I was able to spend a great time with my friends thanks to the homely hospitality and hospitality. I was able to enjoy a variety of dishes in the kitchen where the chefs and cooks change, so I highly recommend it. I also work in a well-ventilated old folk house, which makes my work go really well.

What a wonderful and cheerful welcome. We had almost an entire apartment in the annex in the garden. No meals, but there is a refrigerator and microwave. Large bathroom with time reservation. (No usable bath). There is a very friendly atmosphere in the entire inn. A point of improvement could be an earlier check-in time. That is now 4:00 PM. As a pilgrim (71 years old) you often need to lie down for a while. An hour or two earlier would be very nice.We slept wonderfully on thick mattresses and warm blankets.Top Inn.

I stayed for 2 nights on the pilgrimage.The staff is very kind and you can feel that they have a genuine sense of hospitality.The accommodation was generally very clean and had a good atmosphere, and the restrooms, washrooms, and kitchen were easy to use.I stayed for a short time, from evening to early morning, and it was an inn that made me want to spend more time.The only thing that is a little disappointing is the bathtub and the light in the room. On the first day, I just took a shower, and on the second night I walked to the public bath.The lighting in the room was warm and had a very nice atmosphere, but due to my age, it was a little inconvenient as it was difficult to read the text on the documents.A bright desk lamp would also be helpful.That said, if I were to stay near Aki Station, I would definitely stay at Higashikanoya again.It was a wonderful inn.

I stayed here on my pilgrimage and immediately stayed an extra night to recover. It is a very cozy hostel in the center of Aki City, housed in a beautiful old house. My room was immaculate and I slept well. The common area is very cozy and inviting. The employee I met was very nice and helpful and spoke good English. She gave me lots of helpful tips. If I come to Aki City again, I will definitely stay here again and I can also recommend this accommodation to other pilgrims.
