Homestays in Kamakura

"I didn't check the reviews when I booked. This hotel operates on a fully automated check-in system. As I hadn't received the check-in number via email, I found myself completely stuck at the check-in kiosk. I had to call the hotline. After a lengthy explanation and a long wait, the system still didn't indicate what information was missing. It kept loading for ages, and I was wary of pressing 'back' in case it reset the whole process. Eventually, after waiting too long, I had no choice but to go back, which meant contacting the hotline again. We ended up communicating via WhatsApp to resolve the issue. If you've never experienced such a check-in and are feeling a bit adventurous, you might find it worth a try. The room itself, though, was quite comfortable and clean. However, it only had a high, narrow window near the ceiling, which isn't a problem if you're out of the room during the day."

"Everything was good. The location is right next to the beach and not far from Enoshima Island. However, large towels aren't included. There's a lot of noise from the road, and you can hear the neighbors clearly. The bed creaks, too, haha. Other than that, everything else was fine. It's okay for a one-night stay."

"It's very close to the station, very clean, and everything is new. However, the bathroom is shared, which is a bit inconvenient. There are two toilets, and the overall soundproofing is so-so. But it has a very Japanese atmosphere and is very clean."
