    Wonderful staff. Comfortable room and kitchen room and living room. Close to the main street and close to the sight seeing.

    The property is not far away from the main road. The bedroom upstairs is spacious and has a nice view of the village and mountains from the balcony. The host/helper was very friendly and has a little notebook with touristic information. We encountered a national tsunami warning during the stay and the host tried to assure us that everything would be okay.

    There is an uphill road from the main road to the property. In the property, the stairs are pretty steep too. There is no toilet or bathroom on the second floor.

    The kitchen was well stocked with amenities and cooking items. She had a wonderful Free Bowl with nice little cookies. The bathrooms were clean, the shower area was spacious, the bedrooms were comfortable and had a nice sitting area. The air conditioner worked great and I love the TV with it streaming service options. I had a great time there, it's location to the bus station and the shrine are close yet far enough away to avoid the traffic of the area. The hostess was kind, gracious, and had lots of information. My only regret is that I didn't get a chance to see her dance at The Shrine.

    It was only a one-night stay with late arrival and early departure but we could feel the potential of the guesthouse. Very nice owner, comfortable room, beautifull surroundings...

    Sanae, the guesthouse attendant, was very helpful in showing me my room, which had a great view of the world's largest torii and the surrounding town. The kitchen has a few dinner items, like instant noodles, since few restaurants are open. The single bed and duvet were very comfortable, and the other guests were quiet after 9 p.m. There is a nice outdoor balcony for viewing the sunset.

    The location is not too far from the bus station, but it took me a while to haul my heavy backpack up the hill.

    The host was very nice, we stayed the night before with the same owner, but since we cannot book the same pension, we moved to this one. This pension is much cheaper compared to the one next door, as we share the house with a number of other travelers, also shared bathroom and toilet as well. The caring owner prepared a couple of cup noodles, bread and drinks etc you can grab for your early hike or if you are hungry at night (coz there's NO convenience shop at all around the area), and at a very reasonable price.

    If you stayed on the second floor, you will need to climb up and down for the bath and toilet. Though the bathroom itself was clean, there's a dead cockroach just outside door, which was very scarry for me....

    owner Ms. Sanae-san supported us much. Good and acurate information. Very dedicating and helping. She even drove us to Ukegawa bus stop when we missed a bus. Tatami mattress and futon bed was awsome to rest exhausted body. Warm shower water and icing cold water with enough pressure. a washing machine and a dryer are available with a reasonable price. free AC. not many restaurants are open in Hongu after 1700, yet Sanae-san recommend us to order kumano bento box at sushi restaurant for next day walking, then they delivered us early in the morning. huge living space with a confortable couch and relaxing atomosphe. surroundings of the house is very quiet and the sky is beautiful at night. the acommodation sells some beers, cup noodles and some snacks if you come late and missed dinner. I highly recommend this guest house.

    The bed, the bedsheets and the towels were very uncomfortable, not high quality.

    The room is old but you can upgrade the bedsheets to make it feel more comfortable.

    Like a youth hostel. You can cook or you can go to eat not far away. Not far from the bus to go to different train stations.

    The owner was absolutely kind and explained everything about the guesthouse rules upon arrival. The location of the place is good, 5min walk to Hongu Taisha. The place has a laundry, shared kitchen and living area and also possibility to buy some snacks - this is a plus as there are not many open places in the area after 5pm

    Unfortunately, the place did not feel clean. The house itself is an older building but the bathroom and room ceilings were dirty. Some of the rooms are upstairs with rather steep stairs which we did not mind but might be a problem for someone else. The toilettes are only downstairs.

    Huge room and homey place.

    A steep uphill walk from the main road. Not a difficult climb but the mossy walkway is dangerously slippery if wet.
