“Everything was really unforgettable. We booked five of the six apartments of Sen. Retreat Chikatsuyu. The place was perfectly designed and although it is constructed by containers, has enough space for everything. It is spotless clean. A lot of natural light everywhere. Fully equipped. The food provided was first quality.”
“Our host, Ike, was a wonderful host and brilliant cook. After a long day walking, arriving at Minshuku Wago was a real treat and fantastic respite from a long hot day. Accommodation is simple, but immaculately clean and considered.”
“1) It is very new and fully equipped. For me, the Japanese-style room is a very interesting experience. 2) It is about 10 minutes away from Tanabe Station, So it is very quiet at night. 3) The host was very friendly. Due to the delay of JR, I arrived at about 20:00. He waited very patiently and sent some very interesting gifts.”
“We love every thing in the house. It’s our dream came true. It’s super clean. There were more than enough common areas. The kitchen is fully equipped and very handy to use. The owner does not speak English but he was able to communicate to his guests with google translation and he is very helpful and friendly. There were four bicycles for guests to use and they were for free too.”
“Both the common areas and the rooms are so nice! So clean and pleasingly organized. The interior design is great. Rooms are not overcrowded and there is enough space to accommodate without bothering others. I think that’s is a very important detail.
Besides that, the staff spoke perfect English to me and it was super easy to communicate.”
“The location is perfect and peaceful. The guesthouse is charming, funny, clean, and the hosts are truly warm, friendly, and helpful. The best place to stay in Shirahama! Thank you again, and may God bless you!”
“We loved absolutely everything. Hiroko and Kazu are really kind, welcoming and the most amazing hosts we could've asked for. They assisted with our arrival and departure, helped us with nearby points of interest and made sure we were absolutely comfortable during our stay. There were free bike rentals at the hostel, which we used a ton during our stay. We probably would've stayed longer if we had the opportunity. Thank you so much!”
“If you are coming to Koyasan you should definitely stay here.
The locations, the utilities and service are great. There is nothing to complain about while staying here. It has everything you might need.
You can also decide to have breakfast and dinner here for a very reasonable price, what is very convenient (and they offer vegetarian meals).
Right after arriving, I was able to leave my luggage even before the official check in time. The owner gave me a very detailed map in English with very useful information and he also helped me to find out the most convenient way to arrive to my next destination.
This is a 10/10 accommodation.”
“It feels like at home, just your grandma is there anymore. Authentic and nice place to stay for a night if you are walking Kumano Kodo Trail. And delicious dinner and breakfast included in the accommodation price.”
“Wonderful "old world charm" hotel with private onsen indoors & a hot springs river flowing outside! Much appreciated after a day of walking the Kodo trail. Dinner & breakfast very good. Bus stop outside the door. Staff extremely helpful & friendly. A delightful origami gift from the owners beautiful little daughter ❤️”
