"Wholesome welcoming stay"

10.0

- the staff and welcome were exceptional, the way they sit down with you and explain about the local area and the property and help with your plans - cosy building and friendly warm feel about it - went above and beyond helping me with a day I had planned -after returning from a day trip received such a warm welcome it was like going home -the coffee in the morning is locally sourced and is delicious - my favourite stay of my Japan trip

- it’s an old building which is well advertised so noises do travel but that is to be expected

The staff was really nice and ready to help.

There is only one shower. But plenty of public bath options around.

"Excelente preço por uma ótima estadia, com staff espetacular"

10.0

O melhor staff que já conheci: super prestáveis, simpáticos e atentos. O edifício é antigo, mas charmoso Tem uma sala de convívio simples, mas útil, assim como um espaço para trabalhar com secretárias Não falta informação sobre tours aos pontos turísticos mais próximos Tudo sempre limpo e arejado, o quarto era confortável e tinha espaço para as malas de todos. Muito bem localizado, apenas a 15 minutos do Zenko-ji e da estação de comboio

A única coisa que melhoraria seriam as cortinas das camas. Não tapam completamente o interior da cama, pelo que não há privacidade total.

They care so much it sort of makes you re-evaluate how you live your life. Sometimes that’s japan, but even for Japan, 1166 goes beyond.
