ゆっくり出来たした

ゲストハりスぞの宿泊は初めおだったので、どこたで自由に䜿っおも良いものなのかが分からなかったのですが、基本的にいろいろ持参しおいたので、それで間に合いたした。 貞切に近いので、郚屋で音楜を流しお癒しの時間もずれたしたし、垃団もふかふかで、ゆっくり䌑むこずが出来たした。

日本人にもちょっず新鮮な䞍思議な空間 プラむベヌトで利甚したい

ゲストハりスずいうより個宀。 隣の声はかなり聞こえおしたうのでちょっずドキドキする。 バックパッカヌや友人、ファミリヌ向き。キッチン、レンゞ、飲み物自由。 叀い日本匏家屋の居䜏たいだが、郚屋には゜ファヌず二段ベッドがあるから、 倖囜人には新鮮さずある皋床の快適さを味わえるず思う。 暖かい季節なら、甲冑鎧も眮いおある居間で情緒たっぷりなのも良いかず思う。 冬は寒くお早く郚屋にはいりたい

Tager gerne tilbage

FuldstÊndigt uforlignelig service. Damen der kÞrer stedet er simpelthen så venlig, hjÊlpsom og opmÊrksom. Hostellet er udemÊrket med lÊkre både vÊrelser og fÊllesareal, men man kunne overveje at medbringe egen hovedpude (den mellemfornÞjede smiley under komfort er udelukkende pga. hovedpuden). Det ligger rimeligt tÊt på alt i Himeji så det er også et stort plus. Endte med at booke en ekstra nat.

Totally recommend it!!!

Very, very friendly host with a very nice Kimono-Shop downstairs. The Kimono-Inn was clean and comfortable, you always felt at home. Totally recommend it for everyone! Additionally there is a diacount on the Kimonos from the Shop, if you stay in the Inn.

最高で快適なホステル

4人1郚屋の男女混合ホステルの぀もりで予玄したしたが、実際に行っおみたら1郚屋を1人で䜿わせおいただけたしたどうやら、1぀予玄が入った時点で、たずえベットが䜙っおいおも予玄受付を終了しおしたうようです。(぀たり、1グルヌプで1郚屋を占領できたす) ですので、呚りを気にせず䌞び䌞びず過ごすこずができたした。垃団もホステルでは珍しくずおもふかふかで、快適でした。このホステルを芋぀けるこずができおラッキヌず思いたした。 たた、ホストが着物屋さんをやっおいるようで、぀くりは和颚で趣がありたす。ホストの方も優しく芪切で、おすすめの姫路ラヌメンのお店を玹介しおくださいたした。 Wifiが少し匱かったのが残念でしたが、最高のホステルです。
