    It's a great place for it's cost! Above our expectations! Host was very kind, place is clean, cabins are cozy (mixed dormitory), there is shower, coffee machine, snacks, bicycles 👍 and host helped us a lot with information how to get to Fuji San for sunrise 🌄, where to find bus at 3am. It was very helpful! We had a great night stay and a great hike on Fuji San! Thank you so so much! Highly recommend this place for hikers!

    The only thing I would say is the wooden ladder of the mixed dormitory. It’s kinda sharp and always hit my feet when I walk down. Probably adding some soft cover will help!

    Nearly perfect Good location Brilliant view Plenty of free item( Snacks, Tea, Ear plugs, Masks, Lantern for the third floor, bikes etc.) Nice price It is the best hostel I’ve even been to.

    The AC is a bit cold in the room and no remote there.

    They helped me planning my hike for mt.fuji, with the bus and train rides and even with the weather. The free bike are perfect to cicle the lakes or just buy food in a store. The terrace has a perfect view for mt.fuji.

    I looked for the following criteria when booking this accommodation: 1) Shortest walking distance for public transport 2) Low cost compared to others Both were fulfilled. We basically only used the room for sleeping. It is 10 min walking from Kawaguchiko Station with local train and bus. We were coming by train from Matsumoto and going to Shinjuku by bus from there. The guest house has a nice rooftop with view on Mt. Fuji and free bikes. We used them to go around the Kawaguchi lake which was a good decision (took 3h with some stops).

    Stayed in a Japanese style room with futons which were very comfortable. The shared bathroom facilities were really clean and well equipped. They had free bike hire, tea and coffee facilities as well as snacks. View of Mount Fuji from the rooftop is amazing. Staff very friendly. Would happily stay again.

    Loved everything! The beds were comfy, the room was beautiful, the roof was fun, and the snacks/coffee were delicious. My son had a great time playing on the roof. About a 10 minute walk to the main street. Lots of good food options within walking distance.

    Absolutely nothing

    Beautiful place. The kindest staff, the best facilities, the cleanest dorms. Free snacks, tea, coffee available at all times. The view of Fuji from the rooftop is unimpeded and perfect. Having high quality bikes available for free throughout your stay - given the high cost of bike rental elsewhere in town - is the cherry on top of the cake. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. When leaving they stored my bags free of charge also. At this price, it's phenomenal value. Highly, highly recommended.

    Unfortunately, it does get pretty warm in the capsule/bed. The mixed room's AC wasn't very strong and, maybe because my bed was the furthest down, it didn't really reach my bed, especially once I drew the curtains... I run warm when I sleep so I did wake up with a layer of sweat on me...

    Fuji-san views were great! Staff was excellent and the facilities were clean and modern. Snacks and bicycles were very welcome. The 'room'/capsule/bed was bigger and more comfortable than I expected.

    Wonderful Guesthouse in walking distance from the train station. Clean rooms, comfortable beds, friendly staff and a very good organization. The two big points for this guesthouse are the rooftop terrace with Fuji view and a free bike rental.

    Maybe somewhere to lock belongings away would have been my only comment

    The staff were super friendly, and gave me all the information I needed to explore the area and climb Mount Fuji. The roof terrace had an amazing view of Mount Fuji and the ground floor lounge area was perfect for resting. The staff really care about your stay and the beds were comfy. I loved the free snacks too!

    nothing everything was perfect

    After years of traveling, I have to say that this is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in. First, The staff is incredibly kind and attentive. The gentleman was very kind and allowed me to check in early at no cost, and the lady, seeing that I was having trouble with the bike stand, explained everything to me, both in very good English. Second, The accommodation is less than 10 minutes walk from Kawaguchiko station, you can borrow bikes for free, the bed was very comfortable, and the rooftop is a must with an incredible view of Mt. Fuji (I had the pleasure of having my coffee there every morning). Third, Everything is incredibly clean, shower, high-end toilet. Everything is done to ensure you have a great time, small details to improve your daily life, for example the temperatures of the day, all the supermarkets in the area, all the activities in the region on a leaflet, and also when there is an event (in this case a hanabi matsuri) I highly recommend this hotel, they work hard and deserve the best.

    super cozy and comfy! amenities were all complete and there were even freebies (snacks, tea, coffee) for us in the lobby. great place to meet people if you're staying in the hostel but we chose a room for privacy, waking up to mt fuji out the window was super worth it! super near the kawaguchiko station (within 10 mins walk) and plenty of konbinis and food were nearby. staff were respectful and clear when explaining facilities and rules as well.

    If you’re a solo traveller looking to meet others, this is not the place (it’s hard to find that near Fuji anyways). The atmosphere is pretty calm and quiet, but that was also very nice at times.

    Beautiful guesthouse with very nice staff! De view of mount Fuji from the roof terrace was out of this world. The showers and toilets were clean and the beds were comfortable. Also the location is nice, just a small walk towards the station. The bikes were a great addition!

    The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The hostel was squeaky clean. The bathrooms are either new or were remodeled recently and are in pristine condition. The bed in the dorm was very comfortable and cozy. They offer free bicycles, tea/coffee, and Japanese snacks. There's a lovely rooftop with lounge chairs and a view of Mount Fuji. Not a party place. Definitely, one of the nicest hostels I've stayed at. Highly recommend.

    The house can get too cold.

    The location is great. The house was really cold on my first night. Great service overall. On the second night, someone in the mixed dorm snores, thankfully they provided ear plugs which helped a bit.
