Well, two rooms on the second floor, very clean and very comfortable, the only drawback is a bit far to go downtown, to half an hour

A very nice house in osaka neighborhood, walkable to station and convince store.

Love the tatami bed. Very comfortable

Very, very local characteristics of the house, the landlord is also very good, very timely reply to any questions, just location a little bit biased, but to live out a trip to this unique house is also very satisfied!

When we saw the pictures of the Zebra House in Osaka we fell in love immediately. We booked right away. Our arrival at the house went smoothly, the description and map to reach the front door were very accurate and easy to follow. The house is a typically, older, Japanese house. So take your shoes of at the door and your slippers at the tatami. The house had al the amenities we needed. Some of the furniture is a bit older though. The bathroom is also Japanese style. Which means no standing under the shower like in Europe, but sitting and rinsing yourself. You can fill the bathtub to sit in! We used one of the beds (our parents) and the futons (me and my husband). We slept lovely! Our little girl slept downstairs in her bed. She also slept like a charm. The balcony upstairs was also really nice: we could wash and dry our clothes easily. Ian and Betty are great hosts, easy to communicate with and helpful. We had to figure out the heater/airconditioner and we got an answer with illustrations in no time. Checkout also went very smoothly. And the airport (Itami) was easy to reach. Just take the train to Umeda and get on the airport bus. The location we loved. It wasn't in the center, but you are able to reach Umeda in 15 minutes. There is a big 100yen store nearby that we absolutely loved. And two supermarkets, one is very luxurious and the other is open 24/7. There is also a 100 yen vending machine around the corner, Melon Soda within reach. Always!

House from the nearby subway station close - there are a lot of good for the elderly ~ a Ramen Museum opened an unknown tastes good is a good short stay - the neighbors are very friendly

Check-in instructions very detailed, location is also more convenient, cost-effective high

The landlord was very good, you have any problems, they will try to help, and is the best choice for your sake, it is very important for the first time we travel in Japan. Very accurate description of the house, in line with expectations!

The house is really super nice, very spacious and clean, very quiet around, if more time friends can spend a few days here live very comfortable in front of the house there is a supermarket, the price is very cheap, probably along the way I encountered the cheapest supermarket but initially. the house is very beautiful .the room so big. and the man is very friendly.there is a supermarket nearby. If your trip have enough time .you can live here more day .it will be nice.thank you.

Meolgin lot and center, but we have to feel the countryside hanjeokham. Charming interior tatami will see the sense of the owner charges. good. Take a look alive

Ryota is a very friendly host and very easy to contact. Besides, it was a very decent apartment with a huge space. I really enjoyed my trip. Definitely will recommend to others.

Nice host and good value!

This house was neat and old fashioned style. And Ryota answered about our question quickly Bathroom was a little bit old but fine enough to take a shower. This room has rule book in English and parking area. So if you have a car, you don't worry about it.

Ryota pick us up at the JR station cause it was on his way from work, really really kind ! He is easy going and easy to communicate with by messages. For going back we challenged us to go to the JR station tsuschiyama by feet and it was OK ! It takes like 40 minutes (and we had big backpacks) for People not afraid to walk a bit and just use JR trains ;)

A cozy and spacious Japanese style house with two tatami rooms (can fit total up to 3~4 people I guess), living room, dining room, toilet and bathroom. The house is in a quiet neighborhood with three supermarkets within 5min walking distance. The owner lives next block and responds very fast to my questions. The cooking utensils in the kitchen are way much complete than what I had expected. Extra thick mattresses are prepared for those who are not used to Japanese futon (soft mattresses) for better sleep quality. Oh and, the Izakaya (Japanese restaurant) named ふくろう (Fukuro) just opposite the apartment is a must try! We had Kobe beef sukiyaki pot and it was simply splendid. The house is slightly far from the nearest station, around 10min walk from Harimacho station (Not JR station). Have to keep your voice low because the owner had received complaints from neighbors since the walls are not that soundproof. The wifi was not functioning during my trip, but the owner is working on it. A great place for getaways or vacations since Himeji and Kobe are not far away. I definitely recommend here and would stay again if I'm visiting Kansai region again :) Thank you, Ryota-san! 広くてとても綺麗な和式部屋でした。私鉄の播磨町駅から歩いて約10分間。周りが静かで、ゆっくりリラックスでき、落ち込んだ旅に最適でした。 近くにスーパーが3軒もあるから、大変便利でした。アパートの向こうのふくろうという居酒屋がお勧めです。 ここを選んで本当に良かったと思います。リョウタさん、お世話になって、どうもありがとうございました。

We were cycling from Fukuoka to Osaka and Ryota's place is in a good location, just along our route. Thank you for accomodating us.

Ocean View from the terrace where you can smoke required. Very good. Quiet and secluded atmosphere! I clean houses and wide

The view from the veranda was the best. Rooms also widely, was a welcome breadth to the family. I thought that can I ask them to care a little more room.

The accommodation, Youko very enthusiastic inform all our matters that require their attention, particularly after the completion of housekeeping to contact us, and send a detailed check-in information. Waterfront house, there are 90 degrees of arc side sea view, is really beautiful. Unfortunately, we will stay two days into one day, 23 o'clock ready for bed, took out a group open to see the bed full of hair, hair and musty, friends nasal allergies need to be careful, that day can only open heating, covered with his coat to sleep, cold night, nor bed group, could not sleep, really bad, even children began runny nose, cousin began to cough. Youko more than seven in the second day with us via message reply, sorry, because she can not deal with people in Kyoto immediately for us, our party canceled the second night and day for accommodation costs refunded only the second day. Youko very sincere apology with us, and that will require a more thorough cleaning cleaning partner, we hope so, otherwise this really is a waste of a beautiful landscape.

To use this time is the third time, but the biggest difference with other homestay facility, is that it has always maintained cleanliness. It is not uncommon for a place as you do not want to use the 2 degrees in the other Guest houses facilities. In addition, the fact that this time to eat out, I tried to ask you not recommend the store to the host's, was able to raise what hotels or candidate in the immediate answer. In the course recommended shop was able to satisfactory meal. Satisfied with the access host corresponding to the room of satisfaction, cleanliness and tourism destinations, than many people to be a repeater? Next time we will enjoy the sea, barbecue, etc. in the summer.

It is located in a relatively quiet area, it is recommended for those who drive by themselves instead of relying on public transport (of coz, free parking is provided by the host). Beautiful sea facing balcony, decently equipped kitchen and spacy living environment. I could not think of any reasons on not recommending this apartment to those who want to enjoy quiet staying experiences by looking outside from balcony.

a very stratergically located house to enjoy sunrise and seaside. traveling to tourist spots could never be more convenient. cleanliness could be better. we were surprised by the amount of dust when entering the house. some of the beds had unknown stains. we had to do some cleanup ourselves.

Lovely apartment with an amazing view and large balcony to enjoy it Highly recommended - youko was perfect host - responsive and helpful. Apartment is comfortable and clean .. well located for good holiday

Asahi very good view is I was able to greet good morning pleasant and reflects brilliantly on the surface of the water (^^) Near the set meal shop also sashimi was eaten cheaply such as turban shell and shrimp delicious ️

Great Location but the bed is small for 2 and the cleaning of the room and the replenishment of amenities was not done properly upon arrival.

Saki was a great host and helped us whenever needed. The replies always came very quickly. The room was very clean and spacious for Japanese standards. The location is just next to Gion corner and great to explore Kyoto. The view from the room and the pocket Wifi were nice and helpful. I can only recommend this room and would stay here again!

The place is in a perfect area to explore some of Kyoto's treasures and the bus is near if it should go some other place. It's a very functional apartment where two people can comfortably stay and maybe more could sleep there if need was.

Saki and Hiro were wonderful hosts. Great and quick communication. They were also kind enough to let us check in a tad early which helped us out so much. The apartment was beautiful. That sofa couch is probably the most comfortable couch ever. I loved it and I must have one now. It is evident that Saki and Hiro put a lot of thought into the needs of their guests. The apartment has everything you would ever need from umbrellas and slippers to spare toothbrushes if you forgot yours. When we showed up, the place was spotless and extremely comfortable. It felt great coming back after a long day of exploring. Location wise, you can't find a better place. Smack dab in Gion, you can wander around the neighborhood all night long and never get bored. The location is also close to many of the other temples and to a subway stop. Perfect location. Highly recommend this place and can't wait to come back!

Lovely place. Friendly owners. Superb location

Amaizing flat! Good moment thank u

good location and good room. Finely decorated and lovely.

Very good

Great location from USJ and apartment was fitted out well with everything you need. Located in an industrial area but quiet at night. Maybe a 10 minute walk to USJ or the train one stop is quicker. Wifi was great as well as the Harry Potter movies. Very clean and tidy place priced well.

From Sakurajima Station near, even playing close to USJ park back to the residence is also convenient, but the landlord is very kind, concerned about whether there will be smooth check-in / live is comfortable, there is no obstacle on contact.

Old bed room very clean but not very good corners

The Zebra house team provided us with a detailed description on how to get to their place once you set foot in Osaka. The place is not the far from USJ and is close to JR Sakurajima as well. The neighborhood is peaceful and safe and clean. The host was able to reply to my inquiries in a timely manner and even provided us with extra help. We also appreciate the Harry Potter DVDs that we watched through our stay and cool costumes as well! :) We would definitely go back here and would love to recommend you to our friends who wants to visit Osaka anytime soon. Thank you!!!

Convenient location, well-equipped

From Universal Studios very close to the Aquarium free ferry is also very convenient, the landlord was very good, we also help to book the Michelin restaurant, there are a lot of focus on the Harry Potter set school uniforms, to wear for a day at Universal Studios Magic cool teacher

The view from the terrace at the highest, was comfortable enough to spend all day terrace (^^) This time I was allowed to use with friends and eight, because you have the stuff than expected, was never troubled First (^^) The rooms are very large, because they are many, I think the inn, which is tailored to those of various purpose!

Really is flatter, the landlord really good people, to explain in great detail, so that my problems are solved, relaxing villa with very beautiful, go Wakayama will definitely stay

Susumu and his wife were absolutely lovely. They picked us up from the station, even the trip to the accommodation felt like a private tour. Susumu taught us about his hometown and it's origins, also the origins of the building. The accomodation is a unique, traditional home built over 100 years ago and relocated due to the building of a dam. The dam was built to save Himeji city from a water shortage. If you enjoy history, sceneic views and a bit of quiet from the city then this is your perfect oasis.

We had such a great time here. We stayed 5 days, so we have some tips to share! Just our humble recommendations... DO: * Have a car! There's so little public transportation here, to deeply enjoy things you'll need a car. Parking is much less difficult than you think. * Bring a device for Internet access. 4G is good all around Susumu's place, but bad there. Bring your 4G device to the Onsen, bring it to the lake and relax. Otherwise, enjoy the quiet time away from the Internet and ... in nature, with loved ones. Really, it's a great chance that's harder and harder to find these days! * Go to Tageda Castle! Wow, we loved it! Make sure to check out the sunrise there too, even if it is cloudy at Susumu's place. * Spend as much time as you can in Ikuno. It's a small town, but there's so much hidden in there, and the people are very kind. Key places we frequented / visited include (Mini-Fresh Supermarket - convenient hours and home base for food; Vi.X - great for breakfast (get the morning set), super-kind people; Cafe XX - Good lunch beef bowl (beef is famous in the area), really nice desserts, kind hostess; okonomi - friendly people, perhaps you can run into Matt!; bakery - ; other restaurant; other place; etc * Spend as much time as you can around Seseragi. It's peaceful and wonderful. There's lots there: Black river onsen (quite cheap and peaceful, and they have deer katsu and wild boar nabe); black river dam (so interesting!!), hiking around the local mountains look for logging / fire roads; it's a national forest!), enjoying the lake (lots of great spots to sit in the shade and relax), bicycling on 429 there's so much to see that you miss when driving * Make an appointment to spend some time with Susumu and his wife. They are very interesting people, living in an interesting area, doing interesting things. Don't miss the chance to get to know them! * Stock up on food supplies. You have access to a big fridge and a kitchen; it's nice to have food for the times where you just want to relax at home, rather than take the winding 20 minute drive back to Ikuno. DON'T: * Drive fast at night. You WILL come across wild animals on the road. Do not hurt them... for their sake, and for your car's sake :) * Go hiking in long grass with shorts on - keep fully covered! There are leeches in the area. If you get one, no worries - just use salt to get them off - but be aware of that possibility when hiking in long grass. * Make yourself crazy traveling here and there every day. Do it a bit, but really - the magic of this place is settling into a no-Internet zone (just a bit), and enjoying the hidden depth of the things around you. * Miss...

Susumu and his wife were very friendly and accommodating. We saw them all three days we stayed at their place. Our daughters enjoyed swinging and climbing rope in the kids play area as well as finding fish in the stream. The house is over 100 years old. It's traditional and cozy however its bathrooms are modern and clean. There is a large covered BBQ area and kitchen that are next to the house where we spent most of our time in, enjoying the clean air.

For those who are looking for a quiet, farm experience in the Japanese countryside, this is a lovely discovery. It is a lovely drive from Himeiji, and the navigation with English-GPS was spot-on. Susumu and his wife are friendly. He went out of his way to personally host a hike up to four lookouts of Takeda Castle. As it is the countryside, prepare food and snacks. There are kitchen facilities for cooking, and the homestead itself is huge and can accommodate a large group, or a couple of families. The onsen up the road is open till the evening, but stops serving food around 1500 hrs. It was a refreshing experience of the countryside.

Really cool place in a gorgeous location. Very remote and was ok to find by car (watch out for deers at night). We arrive late (traffic in kyoto) but Sumusu still managed to come and greet us. Highly recommended if you're adventurous and looking for something different in the japanese countryside.

Since there are many gaps in the building, the summer might want mosquito nets.

The house is located in the mountain area. There is no wifi nor network connection. Beautiful scenery. Good for those who hike and bike around that area. The owner of the house lives 20mins away. He is kind to provide you information through messages. There is no restaurant or store around the area. It takes a long drive to get there. I didn't meet the owner. Good for people who genuinely like rural area. But you may consider the safety of the house when there's bad climate and weather.

Wonderful traditional Japanese house in the middle of wild nature. Fine kitchen facilities. Ca half hour bike ride (uphill) to cozy local onsen. Note: There is a half hours drive from Ikuno St. tilSiseragi

Very kind and helpful host with a centrally located comfortable homely airbnb. The bikes are a fun way to see the local town. Enjoy:)

It's a wonderful house. Very clean and quiet. The landlord is also very kindly to introduce her house and travel information. We very recommend this house .

A traditional Japanese house. The host, 石田, was very helpful in introducing the ways to the tourist spots nearby.

The Umineko Guest House was great. It is spacious, central, clean and well-equipped. Yumi was very kind and helpful. The bicycles Yumi provided were good, and we easily cycled to Amanohashidate. Miyazu is a sleepy seaside town and we found our stay relaxing.

Very convenient and the host is very kindness!

My experience in the guesthouse was really comfortable. It had food facilities and was just 10 minutes walk from the station. It is a station away from the famous Amanohashidate and i really recommend staying here for a night. I slept really well and felt refreshed the next day. Thank you so much for your house.

yumi-san was a very frendly host, everything was great and with the free provided bikes (incl. childseat), it was perfect to experience Amanohashidate with the whole family. Many thanks to Yumi and the "longstay"-guest Tim. Perfect support in all belongings!

A nice place to stay!!! It was in a small lane but easy to find with the rainbow light!! Near the port. You can use the bike of the hostel!! 石田 is very nice and kind!! Thank you for the warm place to stay.

The room is great in terms of the location and the services. The host is nice.

Is good

Location is good, just good room also comfortable. Also towards the host, it was very kind.

Near the Shrine Sannomiya subway station walk five to ten minutes in an alley small but perfectly formed kitchen also comes with time but did not try to catch too

Eopneunge toothpaste and rinse little ahswipneyo. In sleep warmly release turn the air conditioner 25 is also good. When you see food to eat I do not think multiple people going to stay good

Very good stay, rooms are clean, comfortable bathroom, shower room is also good. From Sannomiya station very close. Bustling around the house quiet. Thank landlord. I had wanted to stay two nights, but hurry one night and left. If you have the opportunity to come Kobe must also live here

Is a house there in a good location was good, too inconvenient not far from the station ^^

The comfortable, close to the station the best !!
