Beautiful place on a mountain overlooking mount Fuji. Rooms are stylish and comfortable and have everything you need. Taking a bath while listening to the cicadas and birds from the window was pure joy. The staff is extremely helpful and welcoming. I recommend reserving a dinner and breakfast, they were both delicious!!

    The 2 hosts were fantastic and super friendly. They had great knowledge of the area and helpful with plans. The accommodation itself is in a great location near the hase station off the main road. Bedroom was quiet and had aircon/ heater. The hosts have lots of unique decorations and shows their fun personalities. They made me a coffee in the morning which was fantastic way to start my day!

    We loved the old house with its charming room, objects, memorabilia and the cosy kitchen where to have breakfast together with other guests and the host. The location was great, in a quiet small street and close to the station. But the best part was the host Bushi. Kind, friendly and funny. He created a very special place with high ambitions of inclusivity, welcoming and sharing of stories and culture.

    The breakfast was fantastic. That alone was worth the rent. Then the great location, the patio by the river, and Kimie, the best host, add up to the best value for the money.

    Kimie is a great host: a super nice person - and an excellent cook! Also, we loved that our room had a balcony overlooking a romantic creek. And everyone staying at the B&B has access to a terrace overlooking that same creek.

    The host is very friendly and so nice to speak with. The guesthouse is small but very heartwarming, plus the food prepared by our host was really very good. You cone here to have a human experience more than a hotel experience.
