Nice to be in a traditional home. Great place to spread out. Close to transport. Great place.

Main bed - would be nice to have a little top cushion. Would be nice to have basics like oil for cooking.

Spacious bedrooms, good laundry facilities

There were no photos of the bathroom or kitchen with the listing and when we arrived, we realized why — black mold in the very outdated shower and a kitchen that felt dirty and old. The tatami mats/futons for our kids were extremely thin and felt like sleeping on the hard floor — unlike all of the other tatami mats we’ve slept on in Japan. The bed was an extremely old spring mattress and we could feel the springs in our back the entire night. The stairs are extremely steep — which is common in Japan - but the half platform at the top (in between the two bedrooms) is a recipe for death. If you accidentally step the wrong way as you travel from one room to the next, you’re sure to go tumbling down. We were worried for ourselves and certainly for our toddler daughter the entire time we stayed. The host was gracious but it didn’t make up for the dirtiness and age of the home.

Great hosts, we were met at the location and shown around the property. It was fantastic that the host spoke English. She even emailed me some directions as I was unclear of some attraction locations and train lines.

Nothing. It was a great property for the price. Short walk to station, park and convenience store.

Plenty of space. Host was very friendly and accommodating.

Wifi wasn’t very good
