Amazingly helpful and friendly staff. Beautiful, clean room in a beautiful very tadtefully renovated old building

Excellent petit hostel/guestouse très beau et très convivial. Le bar en soirée est très sympa, la ville est calme et le cadre pour s'y promener est vraiment agréable! Je recommande sans hésitation!

I loved staying at this hostel, as it had an awesome vibe. The hostel and town were like something out of Totoro. It is a nice quaint area and the hostel embodies this. The staff and owner bent over backwards to make us feel welcome. It was during the world cup, so they put all the games up on a projector. I loved everything about the place in terms of vibe and comfort for a hostel. The only negatives really are that you need to check in quite early - by 10pm I believe. This can be troubling, as the train service from Oita is anywhere between 70-80 minutes, and has limited trains. This would be a perfect place to stay if you are not worried about timetable, but was a bit rough with me having quite a tight schedule. This all said I would definitely love to visit this area again if I had less of a planned schedule to follow.

Its in a beautifully redone traditional Japanese house, so the overall setting is like an inn many times its price rather than a "hostel". The people there are great, but it is run more like a hostel, so check in times are limited but otherwise service is great. The separate/shared bath is fine, but it is a little far from the rooms (which might not matter to some people, but is a little inconvenient if you get up at night at all).

客室も問題なく、スタッフさんの対応は気持ちが良かったです。朝食が美味しかったです。
