“Very cosy style place! Room was spacious and had a kotatsu and electrical fire heater. The lady that checked us in was very polite and knowledgeable about the local attractions. ”

“Breakfast was excellent. The owner, Keiko-san, was friendly and very helpful. She is passionate about jazz and art, so there is some great jazz. She hosts many live performances too.”

“The place was very clean and spacious and had everything it stated in the booking information. The host, Keiko, was amazing and was so friendly. She took her Sunday off to take me around Itoigawa and even to a local onsen where I experienced it for the first time. Would highly recommend staying here if you’re ever visiting the area.” Read more

“Perfect location. Owner is very kind she recommended me some good place to visit.The room is just like Japanese style house. This hotel is especially the best for foreigners.”

“Had a whole flat to myself with kitchen, bath & living room. It was an apartment basically with 5min access to both the beach and downtown. The owner was very nice and spoke English, but we preferred Japanese.”

“Everything: the landlady is just amazing. She helped me visiting really great places in Itoigawa. If my stay in Itoigawa was great was thanks to her! The room I had was really comfortable and clean. Futon were great. Really nothing to complain about!”

“The owner, Keiko-san, was very kind and welcoming. She really tried to make me and the other guest feel at home. The accommodation is spacious, with everyone you need provided. I would definitely stay here again.”

“Warm welcome from the mama, with a parking spot for a single car in the entrance. Huge room, actually 3 rooms, with a large selection of futons, pillows, kotatsu. Good toilet, kitchen and bathroom. Ideal for a family or group of friends. Good location, not far from the station, where there are many bars (hostess/ snack bars) and a number of restaurants. The place doubles as a live house occasionally for local and international talent. Cozy bar and counter for a night-time drink with the owner. Our cat loved being able to wander around three rooms, and spent the night on the kotatsu, warmest place as usual. Large breakfast in the morning, along with local information, discount coupons for local sights and museums, one of which the Fossa Magna museum we visited - amazing place - great exhibits, and a marvelous AV display of how the Japanese islands were formed, very informative and surprising.” Read more
