Outstanding. Would book again! Exactly as advertised

Nice quiet neighborhood tucked on top of a hill. Place was clean, modern and well stocked and convenient to Hakone-Yumoto station (10 min walk). Recommend!

We booked last minute and it was a great find ! We only stayed one night but we had good time and the house had a lot of room for larger groups

Apartment: Spacious and very comfortable. Kitchen very well stocked. Two bedrooms on ground floor next to toilet and bathroom which made it very convenient for travelling with elderly and kids (tweens). The room on the second floor is nice as a master bedroom. However the ground floor rooms have no blackout curtains / blinds. Nicely furnished. Location: 10min walk to Hakone Yumoto station and many shops along the way, including convenience stores. Good location overall but this is an uphill climb so if you’re coming with heavier luggage, be prepared. We took a cab in so that was easy. This is in a quiet residential neighbourhood but there are a few hotels nearby and one lively hostel a few steps away that serves food and may give a bit of change for dollar notes. Amenities: The washer and dryer have to be separately paid for using a coin (300¥) operated machine. Hosts: not much interaction needed because they gave clear instructions on how to enter. We cracked a glass and they were understanding about it. Overall I’d stay here again if coming in a big group. Just be aware that shops and restaurants close early in Hakone, many by 7 or 8pm.
