An excellent experience! The environment is elegant and comfortable, and the guests are all high-quality. There's an open kitchen with great hygiene. Coffee is available daily from 8 AM to 10 AM, and other teas are self-service 24 hours a day. Guests can prepare their own meals here, and everyone is very considerate about washing and returning used utensils. The water pressure is strong, and there's plenty of hot water. The toilets are fully automated. You must change into slippers upon entering. The common areas are quiet, and people rarely speak loudly. The front desk lady, who is *********, speaks Mandarin and is very professional, friendly, and attentive. There are large and small supermarkets nearby, making it very convenient to buy food and other necessities. Bicycles are also available for rent.
Everything was good about this hotel. They serve fresh homemade bread every day — and it's free! The amenities were great, including a stove so we could cook. The only thing I think could be improved is the host’s friendliness. I only got to speak with him during check-in. Every day when we bumped into him, he seemed to avoid speaking with me. It would have been a perfect score if the host had been more friendly and made us feel welcome at the guesthouse.
First off, the front desk staff was absolutely wonderful. I don't speak the language, but they were so patient and friendly in helping me, making this trip a truly valuable memory. It was also very quiet at night, and the whole hostel had a fantastic vibe.
**Facilities:** Very complete, with a microwave, hot water, and tea available.
I used it with my friends. I am very satisfied! !! !!
There were various places around sightseeing
There is a place like a cave under the Buddha statue.
I stayed in this hostel for 4 days and 3 nights in Kawaguchiko.
The staff are very friendly and the cleanliness is very good.
The guests are also very high quality and will take the initiative to keep the facilities clean after use
The room has two layers of beds. The sheets, mattresses and pillows are all very clean.
And no weird taste
There is a socket + USB socket + small cabinet at the bedside (you need to bring your own lock)
The kitchen has a microwave, a small oven and a refrigerator
No need to worry about cooking
In addition, the staff will clean and sort out expired food every day
The view from the rooftop is beautiful
But the stairs going up are a bit slanted
So be careful
There are chairs and rocking beds on it, very artistic
There are bicycles for rent. The price is cheap and the bikes are not new.
It was a little difficult to adjust the chair, but the staff were very helpful and handled it quickly.
Reasonable charges
The rent is not calculated as a full hour if it is a partial hour.
There are also convenience stores and supermarkets nearby.
But the nearest one is about 10 minutes walk
A bit far from Kawaguchiko Station, 25 minutes away
But it is an acceptable distance to push luggage, but it would be more convenient to have a car
Overall, the experience is good
Recommended for single/group accommodation
Many people criticize this B&B, so I'll say a few fair words. First of all, the landlord is an auntie who speaks a little English but not Chinese. She chatted with me in English when I checked in. Because it's a homestay, there are many rules, such as no smoking, throwing towels in a bamboo basket after taking a shower, trying to be quiet after 11pm, washing dishes after breakfast, etc. I live with my son, and these rules are not a big problem for us, so I feel good overall. And because I checked in before 8pm, the landlord sent breakfast, including bread, fried eggs, grilled sausage, and salad, which tasted really good.
The house is about 50 years old.
Facilities: Perfect, taken care of by the owner 🉐️ in an orderly manner, it is rare.
Hygiene: Hygiene is also good, standard Japanese style.
Environment: About 2 kilometers away from the station, the boss took the initiative to send me to the station.
Service: The boss is a cute and enthusiastic little old man, who looks like Miyazaki.
Glad that I was able to stay here. The location was perfect for us. The distance to Chureito Pagoda and the train station and was very manageable for me and my 14-year-old daughter. The facility was clean and staffs were friendly and helpful. It was also a quiet location. I think when given the chance, I would like to come back and stay here again.
Great

GGuest Usergot bored with tokyo in a long trip
decided to go up yamanashi for a few days
took a night of rest in this place since it was already late & no more buses to where im going
place is amazing for a quick and worry free night, but do pay attention that all guests will have to leave the capsule during 1000-1500, if i remember correctly, even if you stay for two nights
capsules are clean, ventilated, decently-sound-isolated, with nice power options to charge up your stuff
went to 3 capsules in my trip and i believe this is also the biggest capsule among the three
also literally right next to fuji-q, didnt plan to go to fuji-q originally but it was so close that i decided to spend a morning in it, pretty nice
would recommend as:
- a station in fujiyoshida for further trips into yamanashi
- a fuji-q hotel alternative
- a fairly priced capsule with good essentials
GGuest UserThe owner was excellent! While the hotel's location was a bit remote, the overall experience was fantastic. We contacted the owner, and they even arranged pick-up and drop-off for us. A truly wonderful stay, highly recommended!

GGuest UserThe hotel is tastefully decorated - very comfortable, from the window of the room a stunning view on Fuji.
Next to the bus stop there are places where you can eat even after 9:00, which is surprising for such a area!
From the downsides - the road to the hotel is laid out of grave, the day before we on the same stone road broke the suitcase, to look for a new in such a area very expensive and uncomfortable, so here it was necessary to carry it in hands, it is very tired, In the house itself there are also many porosh and steps, so travelers with big and heavy bags will be extremely uncomfortable in this hotel, the second time would not stop, only if to go on the light.
