Great Location near train station and Deer Park area (Approx 10 mins walk to each area). The staff was friendly and the place was a traditional japanese home which is exactly what I wanted to experience. We got 2 private rooms. One room with futons on the floor and the other room had 2 twin beds. Paid for breakfast there and we enjoyed that. They have 2 toliets areas and 2 shower areas plus laundry. You can also rent bikes if you wish there but we just walked around. Will go back someday again.
United States of AmericaPleasant lounge and kitchen area. Outside table too. Standard bed was comfortable. Served well as base for 3 days of exploring Nara. 10 minute walk to food and shops.
United States of AmericaCentral location, great hospitality, and more than adequate amenities for the cost. I was comfortable, happy, and enjoyed the community atmosphere.

ThailandIt was the nicest stay I had in Japan! My only regret is I just stayed in Nara (and Yuzan) for just a night :+
PhilippinesAwesome place, the property is clean and bright, we arrived 2 hours early hoping to leave our luggage behind and explore Nara but everything was already ready for us so we could check in immediately! The japanese breakfast is definitely something I would recommend to travelers. For 400yen you get to experience a traditional Japanese breakfast you wouldn't get easily at any store in the city. We had a great stay, friendly staff, beautiful property, clean rooms, comfortable beds, great location!
NetherlandsBeautiful guesthouse ! Superior room was beautiful, perfectly cleaned, futon very confortable and with view on the small exterior garden You can drop the luggage before check-in and after check-out and the is a shared living room to rest and stay after/before check in/out. Perfectly located to visit Nara, 5 min walking from Kintetsu station and the commercial area. Renting bikes for a very cheap price (500 yens for all day) if you want to go to Toshodaiji or Yakushiji temples. Staff is very nice and helpful, it was our best hotel of our trip in Japan
FranceLess than five minutes by foot from the restaurant and shopping street leading to Nara park and Naramachi. There is a reception and even the japanese style rooms have doors and locks, which is very convenient. Opening the door in the morning to see the garden is priceless :) As far as we are concerned, the street is not as loud as some reviews would suggest. The japanese breakfast was great.
