Itaru-san was very helpfull! We had problems with our rental car and he helped us immediatly. Standard room. Location is very peacefull and quiet. He cooked a wonderfull dinner and we had a very nice evening with other guests. In the morning again a very large choice in typical Japanese breakfast. If you want to know what traditional Japan looks like, come here!

The public transport is a bit rare, hard to travel without a car.

Itaru San is a great owner, he is cooking wonderfully and makes nice company during meals! The room is a very nice, traditional one. The area is exceptional, incredibly beautiful.

Shower needs refurbishment. it functioned perfectly well but a couple of missing tiles needed sorting out.

This was my best stay in the whole 3 weeks away in Japan and Korea. Itaru was a marvellous host who cooked beautiful traditional Japanese breakfast and supper for his guests and taught us a little about japanese eating. We ate in a communal kitchen/dining room/lounge, which was a really friendly relaxing environment. Being a lone traveller, I enjoyed meeting and sharing experiences with the other guests. My room was traditional and perfect for me. Itaru was incredible helpful

Bathroom and toilet downstairs seemed a bit tired but perfectly functional.

It had a very friendly atmosphere, the best of all the places I stayed at during my 3 week holiday touring Japan. The food that Itaru cooked for his guests was a major highlight and the surrounding area was a bit of Japan I loved seeing.

A really lovely homestay, with delicious home cooked food and great company, I was made to feel really welcome.

Peatumiskuupäev: mai 2025

Homecooked food by the owner was very yummy 😋 house considered very spacious as compared to other places we stayed. Room is very spacious. Shared bathroom. However it is not very convenient for family with kids to stay there, as we can't really walk much from places to places. But if you come without kids, can rent bicycle from the owner to cycle around and explore freely. Owner helped us by fetching us to and from lake and the Makaino Farm. We don't eat breakfast usually, but luckily we get to try breakfast prepared by the owner too ♥️ we relaxed and chilled here before moving to another place 😉

It was a beautiful environment, an authentic and real Japanese house, and what I liked most is the communication, helpfulness, kindness and the company of Itaru. He cooked an amazing dinner for us and it was the first time I didn’t feel like a tourist but like part of the daily life of locals there. It was perfect.

Host was exceptionally attentive to our needs and facilitated not only our plans in the surrounding area during our stay, but also for our dietary restrictions and got us to a local onsen and exceptional craft brewery. Home is within walking distance of a great cafe (Lotus Land). Nice to see Mt. Fuji mountain view and greenery.2

Things to be improved in the guesthouse: cleanliness in the toilet and bathroom.

Staying at Yunonouchi was one of the most unforgettable experiences during our time in Fujinomiya. The homeowner, Mr. Itaru, greeted us warmly and with great hospitality. He provided excellent service throughout our stay. Mr. Itaru went above and beyond in hosting his guests. He picked us up from the station, cooked us incredibly delicious meals, and even offered a bicycle rental service. Although access to some tourist cities required traveling by bicycle or car, the views around the accommodation were absolutely stunning.

For some people, it might be a little remote from shopping and restaurants. This was not a problem at all for us, since we were looking to relax on the last day of a very busy trip, and Itaru's cooking is honestly better than restaurant food. There is a bus stop directly across the street that can take you into town.

The host, Itaru, was friendly, helpful, and an interesting person. His English is very good and we had a long conversation about a lot of topics, from music to history. For a small extra fee he cooked an amazing breakfast and dinner for us and for another very reasonable fee, he picked us up at the train station and gave us a small tour of a few attractions. (We were the only guests that night, I don't know if he always has time to be a tour guide, but it was much appreciated!) The area is quiet and peaceful, especially early in the morning, and with a bit of a walk it was easy to find good views of Mt Fuji. The house was air conditioned, which was much appreciated in late July. たのしかったです！

The area doesn't have much in the way of conveniences. This is a very rural part of Japan, so there's not many convenience stores, and not much public transport. You will be dependent on Itaru to take you places. If you're the kind of person that wants to go out and come back as you please, and have access to all kinds of services, this is not the type of accommodation you are looking for.

The host, Itaru, is an incredibly good cook, the best meals I have had since I've been in Japan so far. I tried Natto for the first time here. He also took me to an Onsen (Hot Spring), which I'd never been to before, and he also taught me some Japanese upon my request. He was very accommodating and welcoming.

Peatumiskuupäev: juuli 2024

As other reviews have stated, the host makes the best meals. It was also nice to talk with him and other guests over dinner and breakfast. There is reliable bus service with a stop just across the street that will take you into town within 15 minutes.

Peatumiskuupäev: märts 2024

The house was clean in all the places that matter, all I could say was that the house is a little tired if you look around but that is to be expected as Itaru is running a one man business. He did mention about planning to hire a volunteer to ease the load and strain on himself, so hopefully that will in the future mean that he can be more attentive to the house in the less looked at areas. But by no means a big issue at all. If you haven’t slept on futons before you may have a couple aches in the morning and the pillows I had to fold to make comfortable enough to sleep. Again not a negative but a feature that I was not accustomed to after being used to sleep in a nice mattress at home.

Itaru(the host) was so welcoming and helpful through our stay. He is glad to drop you off at locations and he picked us up from the station when we first arrived. The location is very remote with few things in walking distance. He does provide 2 rentable bikes for a day. By far the best thing was his cooking, even though he claims he is not a chef, I have no doubt that his meals will be among the best I will have in my 3 week stay of Japan. The environment felt so homely with 2 other guests at the house also but you have enough privacy if you are more introverted. At dinner and breakfast it is a shared meal between all guests and I found there was always enough food and if not then Itaru prepares more before you run out. We were lucky to have shared the house with a very kind Italian couple who were vegan, if you have dietary requirement then Itaru does his best to ensure they are met, while also accommodating other guest’s diets such as if you like meat but other guests are vegan, he ensures no one is left out.

Itaru san was very nice bringing us to a nearby onsen and his food was amazing! The surrounding area is very peaceful and quiet. We were lucky to be able to see fujisan clearly! He also took us to a nearby Cafe which was beautiful. He took us to the station after as well, he is an amazing hardworking guy that shared hie story with us. This has been the most authentic Japanese experience we've had while being in Japan. Thank you Itaru San, we will come again.

We had a fabulous stay! The host was very accommodating and a fabulous cook! We booked an guided tour through the region with the host which is one of our major highlights of our visit to Japan! I can definitely recommend this guest house! John

Itaru San was a great host. His cooking is really delicious, and he is very generous with the portions. He made us feel really welcome!

nothing.

Nice guest, Nice house, and very traditional place

Itaru-san gave very precise information on how to get there using different means of transport. He made an awesome dinner as well as breakfast! A spacious room with fully tatami floors. Before dropping me off at the station, he took me to a few amazingly beautiful places, the waterfalls as well as the green tea plantation! truly magnificent with Mt Fuji always in the background! Would definitely recommend! Thank you very much for giving me a very local experience of Japan!!

Our homestay with Itaru was an incredible experience. It's no small thing to say that the meals he prepared for us were our favorite in all Japan, but it's true! As guests, we appreciated his being a helpful guide in navigating the rich surrounding area and were so appreciative of being able to see the beautiful countryside. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for an authentic experience of Mt. Fuji and Japanese cuisine!

The outstanding hospitality and the traditional japanese food (with explanation from the host, how to eat it. Thanks alot to Itaru for the unique time!

Peatumiskuupäev: märts 2023

However I think the exterior and the entranceway area and the bathroom are not up to standard. even though the owner is very friendly I feel that he is not diligent about keeping it up to the standard of and rented accommodation. I feel it if he improves in this area his ranking will be very high

the owner cooked a meal it was very nice

Peatumiskuupäev: august 2024

The place was so dirty… I feel it hasn’t been properly cleaned in a long time. I was disgusted when using the toilets and the bathroom, the floors were sticky, my bed linen smelled like humidity… For me this is not okay to host people and make them pay for a house that isn’t properly clean ! :( There were even coackraoches… That’s too bad, because otherwise the place has great vibes, and a lot of potential. But I wouldn’t recommend or go back for this reason…

The food was very good, and the surroundings are really nice, great to have a bike ride (try to take the one that have brakes tho…) The host took us by car to nice places around ! My room was great, japanese-style with window on the garden.
