"Great place"

10.0

I loved this small old house which has been renovated. Everyone who works there is super super nice. The room was a good size with a comfortable bed. It's close to the train station and the temple area.

They have just one bathroom, there is a schedule and it might get busy at times, I guess, I never experienced that inconvenience.

The cutest and cosiest hostel ever!! I’m so happy with my experience at 1166 - the team were absolutely fantastic and went out of their way to make you feel welcome, offering recommendations and lots of guidance to help you enjoy your stay. They even helped me with a tricky situation with a night bus that I’d unknowingly booked from a location in the middle of nowhere. They rung up the bus company for me and managed to change the stop so I could be picked up from a safer stop before that one. I would’ve been stuck out on the highway at nighttime so it was such a great help to get it sorted. I am so grateful for their kindness and support! The hostel itself is so homely, with a lovely communal area and lots of cute quirky things. The beds were also really comfortable and they had a great shower.

"とても居心地が良くて楽しかったです。"

スタッフさんがとてもフレンドリーで親切でした。内装もおしゃれで海外の人にも優しい。雰囲気がよくて居心地が良い。チェックイン前だったのでロビーで待たせてもらえた。朝、オーナーさんの旦那さんがやっているお店(平野珈琲)の美味しいコーヒーを淹れてくれる。駐車場は近くに500円(24時間)の駐車場がある。ワークスペースがある。キッチンや洗濯機、冷蔵庫など使える。(洗濯は200円)

"Je recommande à 100%"

10.0

Excellente guesthouse, je recommande absolument. C'est ma meilleure expérience en 3 mois de voyage et en plus de 15 logements à travers le pays. Le staff donne des conseils, est toujours ravis de vous aider. Tout est propre, tous les voyageurs que j'ai croisés etaient également très sympa. Si j'ai la chance de revenir au Japon, ça sera ma première étape !

Rien.
