It was very pleasant to stay at Surf Imin G-Sun. The room was very organized and clean. There is a charger, a lamp and a little fan for every bed. The quality of the accomodation/price ratio is very great. Takaji, the owner was fun and nice. We enjoyed our stay even if it was rainy. The beach, which is very close, is very fun and beautiful. There was a lot of people surfing there. Don’t hesitate to book, you will not regret it!

Hiroko and Kazu (the owners) are amazing people that were very kind and ready to help. Hiroko even picked me up from the train station! They offered a lot of very helpful information for my stay at Wakayama. I'm very happy to have followed their advice as that made my visit a wonderful one! They speak English, French, and Japanse! Would definitely stay again and would very much recommend staying at this hostel!

    Beautiful guesthouse in a converted apartment building. On the ground floor is a cafe, bar and communal area. You can get food, cake and the local craft beer here. The rooms are on the 4th and 5th floor of the building, but there is an elevator. There is secure luggage storage if you want to leave it before you check in or after you check out. The staff are friendly and speak English. They also provide detailed information about what is available in the local area, including a public bath that they can give you a discount ticket for.

    The hospitality of the host and the cleanliness made the stay a comfortable one. The hostel was a home for some decades, that tells by the interior structural set up but the host has turned it into comfortable hostel rooms and mindfully add quite some decorations along the hallways, public facilities and at least the big room we stayed. These give colours to it overall in a nice and decent way.

    A few stops by taking buses to the hotel, it's actually a walking distance for me if weather not hot and without luggage. Great location near Wakayama castle with castle night view. Warm and polite staff, spacious washroom, clean and quiet.

    I was travelling to visit Tomogashima Island near Kada and was having trouble finding accommodation for a reasonable price. Luckily, I was able to find Surf G-Inn which turned out to be a great experience. The host, Takaji, was incredibly welcoming and accommodating. He gave me some great suggestions around the area and was kind enough to drop me off to the port for me to catch my ferry. The house was very clean and organised and was located in a nice, quiet part of town. Great experience!

    Very friendly English speaking host. The bed was okay. There were only 6 beds in the room. That was a quiet overnight stay.

    The staff! They were cheerful, polite, efficient, helpful (it seems they could anticipate one’s queries!) knowledgeable and patient. On-site laundry facilities - good to have especially when one is moving from city to city (travelling light with minimal clothing etc). It’s location is great for our purpose - though a little away from the main train station and city centre - of having some peace and quiet. It’s located right next to Wakayama Castle - nice walking paths.

    We surely struck gold with this guest house & its owners. They were so friendly, warm & welcoming. Also, they responded super fast. The space was very clean & the fact that we didn’t have to wash our dishes was very convenient. Check-in was flexible & we got detailed info/recommendations tailored to our needs. My only regret is that I didn’t book a longer stay. Upon revisiting Japan, Tsukiji Hostel will be on my itinerary for sure ✨✌️😎
