Bon rapport qualité prix, proche du port ainsi que de restaurant, commerce et magasin de location. Il est aussi possible de réserver des bento. Attention aux horaires de Check in qui peuvent être contraignante si on doit rendre la voiture de location avant mais rien de dramatique. L’isolation sonore n’est pas incroyable (cloison) entre les chambres donc il faut faire attention à être prévenant en ne faisant pas trop de bruit pour les autres.

Staff was very friendly and tried to be helpful but the language barrier was problematic until speaking with management. We missed our first night and initial conversations made it appear they no longer held our reservation for the 2nd night. Eventually we were told to check back 4 hours later but spent the day wondering if we had accommodations. In the end, all worked out. It was a great place and we'd all happily stay again in the future.

This minshuku was easy to find, close to bus service (airport, Ambo Port \ access to Kitasugi and small/quaint Kusugawa onsen. Amenities includes a nice kitchen with essentials including stove, microwave, utensils, pots and pans. Good location. Can be a bit noisy in early morning and then there is the public address system- ha! Played eidelweiss every morning.

야쿠시마 여행 하기에 가성비 좋은 숙소

게스트 하우스라 는 유형의 숙박을 해보지 않은 우리는 걱정스러웠지만 숙소는 너무 깔끔하고 가까이 있는 마트에서 간단한 장을 봐서 저녁도 해결하기에 충분했습니다. 여행 목적인 새벽에 일어나 아라카와 등산로 가는 버스 타기에 좋은 숙소였습니다. 한 달이 지난 지금도 좋은 인상과 추억으로 미뤘던 후기를 씁니다.
