Minshuku Iwaki

This has been the best experience in my life. The owner picked us at the train station, we is so kind and willing to help. He did a great job communicating with us and was so helpful in many ways. The place is amazing, I felt like all those movies and animes I saw when I was a child, beautiful room, great bath, I enjoyed the bath time so much. The owner gave us tea and we got a room with view to Fuji-san. Beds are clean and they give you Yukatas, we even did a video or our own version of a tea ceremony. Just a comment for fellow guests, please be respectful with Japanese culture, this place more than a hotel is a family house, please be quiet and take off your shoes. Take care of the tatamis and all the place, cause everyone deserves to live such a beautiful experience. And to the owner: あなたの家に泊まらせてくれてありがとう。

The only thing I didn't like is that I didn't have more time in Kawaguchiko, I would love to stay at this place again.

Friendly welcome. No fuss check-in. Room was plenty spacious enough for two separate futons. The owner was flexible about using the shower room late and even offered to pick us up from the restaurant we had dinner in.

Not the owner's fault, but I don't appreciate city announcements over the loud speaker system at 7:30am on a Sunday. Who in authority has convinced themselves that this is a good idea or even okay?!

The host is very kind. He offered tea and took us to the lake on our first day and to the main bus station on our last day

The host was very accommodating and picked us up at the station. We also ran across him one day in town and he gave us a ride to our destination. Very friendly and upgraded our room as well! Had a gorgeous view of Mt. Fuji.

The bathroom hot water is on a boiler so you need to let them know if you want a hot shower in the morning in advance.

Very helpful and friendly host. He also offered free ride from and to the train station.

Great place to stay and highly recommended. Host is very polite and takes effort to communicate and to make our stay convenient. They even provide pick up and drop from the railway station. Ready to answer any queries always. Rooms and lobby are clean and well maintained as well.

The cleanliness and warm welcome
