    Nothing to add

    I loved my stay here. 20 minutes by JR from the centre of town, this is the perfect launchpad for exploring Sendai. The staff were kind, thoughtful and helpful, and provided great recommendations for local gyutan restaurants. They also nurture a lovely atmosphere in the common room. Shower and bathroom facilities were very clean, while I slept comfortably. Highly recommend. Thanks for having me!

    the location is not very central, but 7 minutes on the train to Sendai station was good enough for me.

    amazing staff, really amazing, and for them alone it is worth staying. The bed was super comfy. the staff always talk with people at the living room so there is a good vibe and always a conversion you can join to. really good place.

    Super lovely staff, super welcoming. For those curious, google maps' directions are in fact, correct. It is not hard to find and very close to the station. Very cozy place and on my first night I was welcomed home at the end of the day by many friendly new faces.

    Plentiful, helpful, friendly and hardworking staff. The place is clean. They make their own plum wine,living up to their name. In general it has a nice charm to it.

    Nothing, everything was amazing.

    Relatively close to the station and the facilities were nice. My favorite part, however, was talking with the staff. Everyone, staff and other guests, was super nice and understanding making it my favorite part of my Japan trip so far. Especially how it was a great chance to meet lots of new people from all over Japan and the world and practice my Japanese with everyone working there. I would highly recommend!

    Really a wonderful place. I actually decided to stay in Sendai for another day because the guesthouse was so lovely. The guesthouse is nice and cozy, but the staff, the guest, and the general atmosphere were incredible. Everybody was so lovely and friendly. The location is not very interesting, But it's about 15-20 mins from Sendai Station (10 mins train and 6 mins walk), and it totally worth it. Highly recommend.

    The only thing that wasn’t completely ideal was that it was a stop or two away from Sendai. Bit it was close to the station and still super easy to get anywhere you wanted to go.

    Such a friendly atmosphere. The staff are amazing and the dinner is delicious.

    - the soundproof is a little bit bad, ear buds are recommended when sleeping

    - Passionate staff - shared living area such that you can chill with people from all around the world - fair price - about 7 minutes to a JR station (Nitake), 5 minutes to a convenient store, on foot - clean environment
