"若想體驗在奶奶家的生活,這裡很適合,但無法要求奶奶更多了"

7.0

塔尼奶奶是個很親切的人,屋子是很傳統的日本房子,若想體驗日本傳統生活,這裡是個外在環境很愜意的地方。 早餐每天都不同,很豐盛,但食物是冷的,有點可惜,有些生菜也沒有很新鮮。

我分配到一樓的房間,就在接待櫃檯旁邊,所有在櫃檯的交談都能聽到,唯一的好處就是晚上很安靜。 一樓的房間有很多的雜物,包含鋼琴,感覺是儲物間變成的,住起來其實不大舒適,且地上會有灰塵跟蟲子屍體,打掃沒有做到很確實,入住當天床上還有食物的塑膠袋。

This is a charming hundred years old traditional Japanese house and the owner is not much younger, she is 90 and has been running this hostel for almost 60 years. She greeted us with a cup of a matcha tea and a traditional sweet and sent us off with a packet of delicious tea. Our room was very special- it used to be a tea ceremony room decorated with special bamboo - the owner’s grandmother was a tea ceremony master. Delicious breakfasts were Japanese style and different every morning with coffee and delicious green tea - a mixture of green tea, toasted rice and matcha - the owner has been buying it from the same tea company for 50 years. We absolutely loved our 6-night stay and would come back!

We really enjoyed our stay but if you are looking for something spotless and modern, this may not be the best fit. The rooms are divided by traditional sliding doors with poor noise insulation from your neighbors- it didn’t bother us the slightest but could be an issue for others.

Tani and her daughter are great people! Futon bed was very comfortable!

Unfortunately, it was indeed not so clean there and when air conditioning was off it was very cold. Walking through the corridor from shower to the room was very cold experience. No warm food for breakfast...Also bats lived on the roof above my room and they were very loud during few nights.

"Traditional family stay 5*"

10.0

Very unique and traditional ryokan run by incredible woman. Superb if you want to feel a bit like local. Home cooked traditional breakfast was superb and lady who runs the hotel it’s a superwoman 🥰 There is an amazing onsen 7 min walk from the property.

It’s a bit cold but they try to have heating on in all places. Shared bathroom it’s not for everyone. And privacy it’s close to none but this is the price for seeing a traditional side of living in Japan.

Cisza i spokój, mimo że dalej od centrum miasta ale świetna komunikacja. W pobliżu sklepy i restauracje. Wlascicielka jest starsza panią ale jest bardzo miła i przyrządza pyszne śniadania. Dom ma niezwykły klimat, można poczuć ducha Japonii

"No apto para todos los publicos"

6.0

Tani es encantadora, nos ha ayudado en todo y mas, y el bus estaba al lado. El desayuno estaba bien, muy local.

Las instalaciones son muy humildes, vives con la propia familia y ni la cama ni el futon eran comodos, mucho menos la almohada. Es una experiencia mas, pero si estas acostumbrado a dormir en una cama, vete con la mente abierta, sobretodo si tienes un viaje de varios dias... piensatelo bien. Si, esta cerca del transporte publico, pero todo menos el castillo dorado, esta minimo a 1h en bus.
