"The price was the best in the city, but this is no hotel as you can find somewhere else. Check-in and check-out was ok. There is no private shower, and with the rain, the ceiling was leaking. Okay-ish hotel. Messages you receive from the owner must be translated in English with Google Translate, but the check-in process pdf is in English."

"This hotel was excellent. It was immaculate, quiet, the room was a good size, the bed was very comfortable, and the breakfast was exceptional. The hotel was conveniently located 5 min. Walk from the train station. The staff were so friendly and made our stay very pleasant. We would stay again without question!! Thank you for a wonderful stay."

"I stayed for three nights. The hotel is clean and well ventilated. I was lucky enough to have a large and quiet room. The owner is very friendly and doesn't bother guests. But the only regret is that the floor noise is loud. It will be noisy if you live next to the stairs. I would come again if given the chance."

"We are very grateful for this beautiful place. We were looking for somewhere where we could spend quality time together as a family and bring our little dog, and thanks to this place, we were able to enjoy a wonderful, peaceful, and relaxing time together.
The place is very peaceful and surrounded by nature, which is exactly what we were looking for. We also met another guest who brought their dog, and it was lovely to see them enjoying the place too.
We really enjoyed our stay and hope to...

"The place is on small town, serveral store (convinence store, lundary....) is far from hotel.
But town is so quite and calm, hotel is clean and simple.
Host of the hotel is nice and kind.
Hotel is quite reasonable for that price."

"We absolutely loved this property. Its so beautiful. In a quiet neighborhood, with a beautiful onsen like bath. Only downside is bathing at night, because its open air, there was many many critters that came out. "

Some of the other tourists were disrespectfully loud. There are locking coin laundry machines on site. Water bottle filling machine and very close to a Family Mart. The entire town is friendly and proud of their community.

I loved the hot springs, was said it was one of the oldest in Shirahama. Boss lady was a great person, and she served with her heart to make sure everything was fine. Food was absolutely delicious! The fishes were all fresh caught by boss lady’s husband every day. All their vegetables were from their organic farm. The view from Boukai was amazing, very close to Beach. I highly recommend this guest house, made me feel like home vacation.

If you are budget traveler, it is best I had so far, simple, roomy, clean, it has everything you need, I don’t think you can find better one with the price. All fingers up.

Very friendly owner/host. Excellent service. Good Japanese-style bath. Western toilet and WiFi only on first floor. Breakfast room available for guests use (no meals served by inn). Close-by supermarket. Only wish they didn’t smoke because odor permeates property.

If you're looking for a swank hotel, then this is not you're looking for. However, if you are looking for an excellent place to stay with gracious hosts and family, then this is a perfect spot in Tanabe. We stayed here on 10/24-25 to hike Kumano Kodo trail. Koushi and Chiyoko were extremely gracious hosts and treated us like family while we were there. They went "beyond the call of duty" to help us in finding a lost jacket left on the train and they made sure we were safe all along the way. ...
