Beautiful place on a mountain overlooking mount Fuji. Rooms are stylish and comfortable and have everything you need. Taking a bath while listening to the cicadas and birds from the window was pure joy. The staff is extremely helpful and welcoming. I recommend reserving a dinner and breakfast, they were both delicious!!

We loved the hospitality, the comfy beds and amazing view of Mt Fuji. Just a 2 minute walk from a reliable bus, it was expertly located for a quiet few days away with easy access to towns closer to the coast. The staff were extremely kind and accommodating and the meals were exceptional!

    Such a great hostel. The bed was one of the most comfortable ones I’ve had in three months travelling. And the staff spoke such good English and were extremely helpful with all my questions, went out of their way to help me with booking my next leg of travel. The location is also perfect, somewhere between the train station and the coast. Highly recommend.

    The 2 hosts were fantastic and super friendly. They had great knowledge of the area and helpful with plans. The accommodation itself is in a great location near the hase station off the main road. Bedroom was quiet and had aircon/ heater. The hosts have lots of unique decorations and shows their fun personalities. They made me a coffee in the morning which was fantastic way to start my day!

    The location of the hostel is amazing, it allows you to be only a few minutes from the station and to be close to the city center as well as the beach. We were able to store our luggage there before and after check-in and -out which is a big plus. Generally, the room was very good and there is nothing particular to complain about it corresponds very well to the descriptions and photos. The room is not amazing either but it very much lives up to the standards at which it is advertised. So good price / quality ratio.

    We loved the old house with its charming room, objects, memorabilia and the cosy kitchen where to have breakfast together with other guests and the host. The location was great, in a quiet small street and close to the station. But the best part was the host Bushi. Kind, friendly and funny. He created a very special place with high ambitions of inclusivity, welcoming and sharing of stories and culture.
