Scout is an excellent host who runs an amazing Japanese-style hostel. The location is fantastic, especially if you want to escape the bustling city of Tokyo for a while. Having a car would be convenient, but Scout’s shuttle service ensures that you can still explore the area easily. Thank you for the wonderful stay and breakfast, Scout!

A nice accommodation, with a lot of equipment in the kitchen like fresh coffee, snacks etc. The check-in was very flexible and smooth. We were able to reserve a free parking space before checking in. Also the receptionist was very friendly and had a lot of good tips for restaurants and activities in the area. All in all a great and good value stay if you don’t want to spend too much!

The room was spotless and spacious for a solo traveller like me. Hiroko even picked me up from the train station and dropped me off there when I was leaving. This is one of the few best among my many AirBnB stays. This is more than 5 stars in my view and I'd give 10 if possible. I'll definitely book it again in my next Wakayama trip. Thanks Hiroko!

I had dinner in Takamatsu City on the day of my stay, so I arrived late, but the owner welcomed me warmly. There was one 2-year-old child, and they played with us and did a great job. Thank you very much. I will stay again if I have the opportunity.

Amanohashidate, Ine, Miyazu Guest House, Hachihouse ①

ZaraRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
We had really good sleep, despite having 3-4 guests around. We love the thick fluffy comforters and the curtains gave good privacy. The location was walking distance to Mipple Mall (where the pier was) and there were also great places to eat. Buses were hourly, so we ended up asking Nana to book us taxis and it was such a great way to move around. Taxi to Amanohashidate Station was about USD12 and Miyazu Station was USD7. Highly recommended to stay with Nana and my family will surely stay here again if we come by this area again.

Bunk Bed in Female Dormitory Room

MoritaRating, 5 stars6 months ago
Great value for money. Very clean. Bathroom, toilet, and sink are all sufficient. It was full when we went, there were almost 20 people. The sound insulation is poor, so people who are very particular about their sleeping environment should be careful. Other than that, everything is fine!

The Matoi hostel was a great place to stay, it isn’t too far from Gunma Soja station but they also provide a shuttle bus to get you to the hostel. The staff were very helpful and friendly and gave pretty good recommendations. The hostel itself has a bar on the ground floor of which we got given 4 free drinks tickets which was a greatly appreciated bonus. Thanks for the stay 😁

6 Bed Female Dorm -Resort Guesthouse near lakeside

NicoleRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Stayed here for 4 nights in the female dormitory. I loved the place, surrounded by green fields, mountains and it was quiet and had a great weather to walk around. It was a bit far from the station (Omi-Maiko Station) like 15-20 minutes walk. There are not a lot to do around, but it was easy to take the train to Nara and Kyoto. I loved the hostel, it had everything I need. It has a restaurant in the first floor. They do sell snacks/food in the reception. I recommend staying here if you like the countryside vibes.
