Monthly Rentals in Aoki, Chiisagata District

We had such a lovely time at Rentaro's beautiful and big house. As the other reviewers say, there aren't any photos of the very large western-style side of the house which includes a big kitchen, dining room and lounge. There is also a big giant bath-tub with a heater that can reheat the water. It is next door to a beautiful temple and quite peaceful. We had much more room than we realized. I would say having a car works best - the bus and train didn't run so frequently. But we used it as a base to explore bessho onsen, the venus line, lake suwa, kusatsu. Rentaro went above and beyond as a host. On our way to Ueda I left my phone in a taxi and he called the drive and arranged for it to be sent to the next hotel we stayed at. He was generous with towels and all the amenities at the space. We loved our stay here and there was even toys for our two year old.

Really enjoyed my stay here. The host provided clear instructions to make the check in process really easy. It’s in a great location, very close to the station and the castle, also has lots of great food spots around. I would definitely stay here again :)

Thanks for the one night and two days! We used the BBQ area. It was very helpful that the host lit the fire at the time of arrival. The toilet and sink were clean and easy to use. I'd love to stay again.

The house is very nice and clean. It is spacious and cozy. The host is very friendly and came to open the house for us and showed us around. The thing that can be improved is a lack of full bed linen. Now we slept under the blankets and bed sheet which is not ideal and does not give you full comfort. You also have to know that the house is located around 10m from the road which in some parts of the day is quite busy with passing cars. It is neighbored by some other houses in a small estate area. The mountain trails around the house are not accessible through some part of the year so check that if you wish to use them.
