Stayed one night in Kumamoto to visit a couple of sights and wanted to have a feel of a Tamari style room since it was the first time for me in Japan. Host was very welcoming and easy to talk too. Had a great time, loved the breakfast. Emphasis though on the Ryokan "like" of the title. I can't say it's an actual Ryokan, as I'm imagining the full Ryokan experience. I went for the Tamari experience + Breakfast.
