Price is low but... ##### Chu kong ### 4/10 Poor #### DIEGO 26 Feb 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This was an extension to our stay, and unfortunately these last 3 nights were unbearable, as the guests staying in the rooms on the 2nd floor were very noisy when walking on the wooden floors. Furthermore, we tried to contact the hotel staff, who are NOT on the premises, but never received a response. The hostel is left unattended so if anything goes wrong there is no one to address it. The front door was left unlocked by most other guests, so the sense this is not a secure and safe place. Also, the posting says there is housekeeping, but we received no service during the 5 nights we spent there. One of the two mllaundry machines are not working, and we had to buy our own detergent even tho this was supposed to be provided. As for cleanliness, our room's drawers and closets were very dirty, with lost of dust and what appeared to be nice feces. This could be a beautiful place, however it has serious issues. ##### DIEGO Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### DIEGO 22 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service This hostel suffers a few major problems. For.one, there is no one there most of the time, so check in must be done after 4pm, regardlesa if your room is ready (like hours was). Also we had issues with the guests staying upstairs stepping too hard on the wooden floors and there was no one there to respond for it. The pictures on the app are not accurate (at least for our room), making it look much brighter and nicer. Also, it is clearly stated that towels are not provided, so we carried our own, only to find out the hostel does offer towels are a very reasonable cost. Laundry facilities are available within the premises, however laundry detergent could not be found (although it is included in the cost). Lastly the common areas need a facelift as they get messy and cluttered very fast. If you want to experience a more realistic stay at a traditional Japanese house, this could be the place. However, mindful of the fact the place is mostly unsupervised and other guests may not share your understanding of basic rules in an old wooden structure. Overall we really liked the authentic feel of an old wooden Japanese house, the tatami floors and futons, the paper window panes and the somewhat neglected but beautiful garden. This place needs a little attention and it could be a gem. ##### DIEGO Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Kakimoto 16 Jan 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities 概ね満足だったのですが、備品のいくつか、家族風呂を洗うための洗剤が空だったり、二階の「ご自由に」のクリームパウダーが湿気を吸ってカチカチになってしまってたのが残念でした。台所の分は使えたので、問題というほどのことでもないのですが。 でも、本当に居心地が良く、もっと連泊したいと思いました。 周辺の古都の雰囲気のままお部屋で過ごせますし、奈良観光の拠点に最高だと思います。 ##### Kakimoto Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2026 ### 8/10 Good #### haruhito 3 Jan 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities 清潔。古風で、大変良い雰囲気。狭いのは、残念だが、この金額なら仕方ない。今度は複数人で和室に泊まってみたい ##### haruhito Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### MOTOTSUGU 2 Jan 2026 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities 家族向けの和室は歴史ある母屋ではなく、隣のただの古民家でした。 ##### MOTOTSUGU Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Wen 24 Nov 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities I know there was a prior notice regarding shortage of staff. However, navigating the check-in and check-off would feel a lot less confusing if there is a staff at the Reception at the usual operating hr (7 am -7 pm). So cuatomers could ask questions. ##### Wen Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Amélie 24 Nov 2025 Très bel vieil immeuble. Plein d'histoire. C'était touchant d'y dormir.
