the hostel looked great until I realized I could hear every little noise from the common area, awful. and then there were the cramped rooms without a window, oh the unrelaxing fluorescent lights! it almost woudl ve been an acceptable stay if I hadn’t expected a complimentary gesture. I just couldn’t give a good review.

The free bicycle rental made exploring the area fun. However, the shared kitchen noise disturbed my sleep.

cozy, cozy, cozy

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay in the spacious Triple Room with Shared Bathroom. The owner was kind, allowing me to check in early after I arrived soaked from the rain. Plus, there's a good kitchen area that had everything I needed for a comfortable night, including a TV and a lovely atmosphere.

strongly recommend 😊❤️

Clean, beautiful rooms with all the essentials, like a free washing machine. The location is prime, just a hop from local attractions.

The triple room felt cramped with no window, and the lighting was harsh fluorescent. Amenities were lacking—no shelves or racks, and the towels provided were smaller than expected, barely larger than face towels.

clean guesthouse, well-equipped kitchen, excellent communal facilities

I wish they had an elevator to avoid lugging luggage up to the second floor!!! The futon beds could use thicker blankets for added comfort, especially in hot weather!!! Noise from the shared kitchen is a bit distracting at night!!!

Make sure to explore the nearby beautiful gardens. they offer a peaceful escape and stunning views, just a short walk from your accommodation.

the only downside was the lack of an elevator. but the facilities were super clean with free coffee, the staff treated us kindly, and the location was perfect for exploring uji and beyond.

Had a great stay with friends! We explored the beautiful gardens nearby and visited the stunning Byodoin Temple. The free washing machine and super friendly staff made our time even better. The location is perfect, just a short walk from the train station. Highly recommend staying here!

The only downside was some noise from the shared kitchen during the night, which made it hard to sleep at times.

The location is fantastic, just a short walk from the train station and beautiful gardens.

Some noise from the shared kitchen made it difficult to sleep at times.

Just an ideal choice for a fleeting stay in Uji with good value for price. The free use of the washing machine was a super handy perk. Check out the beautiful gardens nearby, they’re worth a stroll!

The room was spacious with lovely Hibike Euphonium art. The kitchen was well-equipped, and I appreciated the nearby attractions. The staff was warm and accommodating, ensuring I had a great stay. 🌟

The shared kitchen could get a bit loud at night, making it hard to sleep sometimes.

Awesome community vibe!

I had an absolute blast chatting with other travelers over coffee and beer! The kitchen was a great spot to whip up meals and the cozy atmosphere made it feel like home. I did hear some noise from the kitchen at night, which made it a bit tough to sleep. But that’s part of the fun, right?
