We had a wonderful stay. It was lovely to try out a traditional style setting. I had read reviews ahead of time, so I was well prepared for the walk up the stairs every time I went out. The host is very sweet and picked us up and took us back to...

Great staff! Really considerate and helpful! Interesting location which they will explain. Shared bathroom was easy to use and clean. The parking is tricky but they give you pictures to follow.

This inn is the best experience for historic Japanese living. I would say out of my 18 days in Japan this in and it's staff was the most memorable. Set atop the stairs to a temple with historic architecture and atmosphere you get a real experience...

The location and owners make this homestay special. The latter is at the foot of a historic and important Buddhist shrine and resting place of Kato Kiyomasa, builder of the Kumamoto Castle, while the former are generations-old family of soba...

If you're traveling alone and looking for that special something, this is it. I felt like I had a hone away from home. I wish I stayed longer and ate more of the best food ever. I felt like my Japanese got a lot better, and im pretty bad at it....

Interesting location with nearby temples. Yoko was very kind - also picked me up the first night. Her friend, a fellow guest, was also super helpful. Nice Ryokan experience.
