Overall a great place to stay for solo.

It’s quiet you can hear anyone in the lobby. Everything is clean but the kitchen has a particular bad smell. I did not like my other roommates who leaves a lot of washed clothes here and there, and they do not turn on the fan/airconditioning unit that the room is very hot even after I take a shower at night.

This is the best Hostel to book on any budget. Since it is also a cafe the interior is upper nice and modern looking. As in the name, the interior is all made of wood and has that amazing wood smell that makes you feel so welcomed and at peace. The boy at the counter was super helpful and great at guiding me through the check in/ check out process. They have free amenities such as towels, toothbrushes, and even have washing machines and dryers. Their WiFi works super well, and overall I had an amazing stay. It was super quiet and you could sleep in peace. This was the best nights sleep I’ve had in all of Japan :) thank you so much, I will be staying here the next time I’m in Japan FOR SURE!!

駅から歩ける距離、施設は清潔で問題なく過ごせました。部屋にゴミ箱、キッチンに箸、ダスターが無い。靴は脱いで利用するので、施設利用する際に気になる方はスリッパ持参されるといいのかなと思いました。時間外の出入り口は暗いです。広々し、静かで清潔に整えられ、ヒノキの香りにリラックスできました。また利用したいと思います。ありがとうございました。

おすすめです

自転車旅行でしたので、屋根付きの駐車スペースと、物干しがあり、大変助かりました。 建物内にランドリー(洗濯・乾燥)があったのもありがたかったです。 廊下、共有スペースは広めの空間なので、ゆったりくつろげました。 水回りも清潔で換気に配慮されているのもとても良かったです。 自分が利用したベッドには、プラグ差し込み口が複数あり快適でした。

ツインルームを利用しました。 お安いのにホテル並みでした。タオルは有料（50円）水のペットボトルなし、トイレとシャワールームは共用でしたが、男女に分かれていて、個室のシャワールームの外で着替えができて鍵付きで安心。ドライヤーはやや風量が弱めでしたが、あるだけありがたい。 駅近でお店が多く、また利用したいと思います。

全体通じて、非常に良かった。 オーナーは優しい人で質問に素直に答えてくださった。 1階の共有スペースは、木の香りがする空間であり癒しを与えてくれるものであった。 2階の宿泊スペースは普通のドミトリーであり、不満はなかった。 共有のキッチンスペースは、IHコンロがあり、冷蔵庫も大きいものがあり、長期滞在もできそうである。 また、交通の便も良く、天理駅から徒歩5分ほどであり、直ぐにチェックインできたのは良かった。 その上、周囲は良好な飲食店（二代目　山嵐）があり、有名な宗教施設（天理教＆石上神宮）もあり、見ものである。 ※なお、各宗教（天理教、神道等）での礼拝方法があるのでよく調べられたい。 最後に、いい宿でした。 また、機会があれば来ますのでよろしくお願いします。 Very good throughout. The owner was kind and answered questions honestly. The shared space on the ground floor, was a woody space that was soothing and relaxing. Accommodation space on the second floor, It was a normal dormitory and we had no complaints. The shared kitchen space has an induction hob and a large fridge, so a longer stay would be possible. The location of the dormitory is also convenient for transportation: it is a five-minute walk from TENRI Station, and it was good that we could check in immediately. In addition, there are good restaurants (NIDAIME YAMAARASHI: Yama-arashi 2nd) and famous religious facilities (Holy place and Headquarters of Tenrikyo & Isonogami-Jingu Shrine) in the surrounding area, which are a sight to see. In attention, each religion (Tenrikyo, Shinto, etc.) has its own way of worship, so please check carefully. Finally, it was a nice place to stay. I would like to come again if I have the chance.
