I had a wonderful four nights. It was nice to live in an old 3-bedroom house in a quiet neighborhood along a narrow path. I loved waking up in a room bathed in light from the shoji door and windows. Early in the morning I would go out for a walk before sitting down to a nice Japanese breakfast with the owner, cook and other guests. Sharing the bathrooms with other guests was like living with your siblings. I felt like I was part of a family in a very interesting and relatively small town. The owner was very helpful in answering questions and recommending places to visit. If you want a hotel experience, this is not for you. There is no front desk, extra amenities, private bathroom, tv, or refrigerator. This is an old house with three guest rooms. But the rooms have a/c and the two bathrooms have flush washlets. You have to remove your shoes at the front door. Then you step up to the small common area with a low table and zabutons. Under the table is recessed so you can sit comfortably with your legs dangling. The narrow, steep stairway leads to two guest rooms and a bathroom with toilet. My room was very comfortable with a couch and low desk. The futon was thin so I laid two of them on the tatami mat. This was a great experience to live in an old Japanese house.

Delicious breakfast and the most welcoming staff, thank you Bushi and Nanako for having me!

The property is true to its description. Staff was very helpful and they provided a delicious breakfast. Had a great night sleep both nights there.
