外国の宿泊者とトラブルがあり、落ち着いて過ごす事が出来なかった。その外国の方は、部屋以外が共用部分だと知らずに、何故私たち専用の階に勝手にいるんだ？と詰め寄られました。あんなゲストハウスはもう嫌です。

総合的に悪い。 オーナーは、日本語を十分使用して会話をすることが困難であり、メッセージでのやりとりや電話でのやりとりに不安を覚えるものであった。 また、他の客との取り違いの連絡もあり、これもまた不安を煽るものであった。 設備面においては、シャワーの水圧がよく変動し、冷蔵庫は動いておらず、その上腐った牛乳が放置されていた。 良いところは料金の安さであり、3000円で寝るところを用意してもらった点では感謝したい。 Worse overall. About the owner Difficulty in using Japanese sufficiently to have a conversation. The communication by message and by telephone was unsettling. There were also miscommunications with other guests, which also made us feel uneasy. About facilities The water pressure in the showers often fluctuated. The fridge was not working and rotten milk was left on top of it. The good thing is the low price, and I would like to thank them for providing us with a place to sleep for 3000 yen.

Le meilleur qu on a trouvé, situé à Otsu donc moins cher que Kyoto et pourtant pas très loin de la ville (25mn), le plus grand lac du Japon est juste a coté, nous avons adoré particulièrement le fait qu on s est senti comme on vivait dans une maison traditionnelle japonnais, décor, tatami, couchette, notre chambre avait aussi 3 lits superposés donc il y avait l option de dormir dans les lits ou sur le tatami, on recommande

Guesthouse charmant, avec de jolis décors de chez l habitant, ce n est pas un hotel. Il faut envoyer un message à l auberge avant d y aller pour qu elle vous explique comment on fait pour entrer car il n y a pas de rception. Propre et avec toutes les commodités, cuisine, vaisselle... nous sommes restés 3 jours et nous avons adorés, le seul hic pour nous c'est qu il faut payer cash, merci Hana

Positive point: very short distance from station. Near this guesthouse, there's a nice udon restaurant. Room is big enough to rest. Negative Point: short distance from station also means there'll be some noise caused by train. I saw a giant bug on the ceiling at night. Moreover, some electric outlets and little lamp on the bed didn't work. Only outlets in 2 out of 4 beds worked properly. Air conditioner works well, but it barely gets warm. You should pay by cash if you are a foreigner. I saw PayPay QR in there so PayPay may be accepted if you can use.
