It felt cosy and I enjoyed the traditional atmosphere of the place. Very good wifi!.
the location is ok!
staff is nice.
It was a little far from the train station (~15min walk to the nearest one, Kitaoji Eki).
as everything is opened, a little bit of noise the morning ( you hear people having their shower or having breakfast for example ).
The place was quite cramp especially since our suitcases were quite big. Facilities were quite dirty but still decent and we could live with it. Quite a lot of mosquitoes during our stay there (it was start of summer) but it didn't really cause a big nuisance to me.
nothing.
