She was very helpful and had a great chat with her too. The facility was clean and tidy with a lot of thought put into the decor and atmosphere of the place. It's very homey. The room we stayed in had enough space to lay out our luggages on the floor. The bunk beds were comfortable and clean. The washroom and showers were clean and stocked with supplies. Mii, the owner is always within reach if you need anything. Mii and Nao spoke English and gave us really good recommendations of places to visit in the area. The guesthouse is within walking distance to the train station, laundromat around the corner, and a really good local okonomiyaki place next door. This is a must-stay for those who wants to meet new friends and on a budget.

Ken is such a wonderful host, the area is beautiful with some great restaurants, somewhat off the beaten track and therefore very much for the locals! The kotatsu (heated table) was a joy in cold weather, and this was a nice place to meet other travellers while travelling solo
