"The room is fantastic and so is the location given that it’s right next to the train station, but this is NOT a hotel. You sign in using a machine and you can’t drop your luggage in advance, or leave them there after which is frustrating when you’re arriving earlier. No human interaction at all, but the room is truly beautiful and it has an outdoor shower."

"This was our favorite place that we stayed at in Japan. The host is extremely communicative, friendly and so accommodating. He was at the location when we checked in and gave us a tour of the home. The home was clean and organized. We were really impressed with the level of detail and helpfulness from the host. We would definitely recommend staying there. Especially if you have a large family."
