가정집같은 숙박업소에서 편안하게 쉬고 싶으시다면 추천

주인분이 한국어 사용이 가능하셔서 어머니같이 편안하게 챙겨주십니다. 정감있는 숙박업소로 이용에도 전혀 불편함이 없었습니다. 주변 지역도 깨끗하고 조용하며 기차도 환승요금없이 시내중심부로 쉽게 들어갈 수 있습니다.

周辺が便利

周辺は住宅街で治安は悪くなく、コンビニもすぐ近くにあるので、買い物も行きやすい。駅もすぐ近くなので、観光に利用するならもってこいだと思う。 部屋はベッドと机、テレビだけだが、一通りアメニティも揃えてくれている。ただし、ゲストハウスという性質上、他の宿泊者と頻繁に鉢合わせるし、風呂などが共用であることに抵抗が無いならばオススメする。

한국인이 운영하는 게스트 하우스

게스트 하우스를 호텔과 같은 수준으로 평가할 수는 없겠죠. 한국인 입장에서 주인 아주머니의 친절함이 좋았습니다. 전철 역에서 가까웠던 점도 만족스러웠던 점 중에 하나였습니다.

Don’t do it.

Couldn’t arrange late check-in despite the booking saying late access available until midnight and we called ahead. They cancelled our booking without letting us know and refused a refund. They then wanted us to pay an additional 300,000 yen if we wanted to stay. Last minute did noting to assist and now we are stranded without accom and 210,000 yen out of pocket. Obviously avoid.

Scam hotel/guest house

Worst experience EVER in all my extensive travels. No heat; aggressive unfriendly landlady who promised to cancel reservation and didn't; run down shabby looking house and interior; neighborhood the same; very difficult to find. Unfriendly money-hungry Landlady charges for EVERYTHING including items small and not listed as requiring payment, felt like I was being scammed (and have spent lots of previous time in Japan). EVERY other place I have stayed in Japan has been wonderful and helpful. STAY AWAY!

酒店交通还算方便，环境清洁，物有所值，免费使用各类厨房用具

酒店女老板是在日几十年生活的韩国人，居然没有被日本优质服务环境所熏陶，有爱来不来的脾气。我因为不熟悉去酒店的路及手机电用完，无法及时与店家联系，到达酒店时超过了23:00点的规定入店时间，老板根本不听解释不说，还回话，这是你的事。硬是不由分说按规定收取延时金1000日币！这与日本以人为本的精神不符合。然后带着我在店内转了一圈作了介绍，再然后直到我住了2晚离店，就没见老板娘的影子。

Arrive late, there is a fee. For the air conditioning, there is a fee for that. Want to borrow a bike, there is a fee. Planned a Kay minute trip with my cousin which is why I had to choose this place as it was the only one remaining that is affordable. Will never stay there again.
