A place that you can’t rest and sleep in peace.
You can actually hear guests in the other rooms sneeze, their snores and EVERY STEP of their movements!
The residential neighbourhood is dark and quiet BUT the walls and floors of the guest house is very thin. You can’t sleep in the night and in the day, house rules say you can’t stay to rest in your room.
Amenities is a ONE because basic need of rest was not met. Only a quaint place to visit and shower.Not for overnight stay.

Very nice place with very thoughful owner.
There are some unusual things like closing the place from 12 to 17 and extra charges for luggage keeping, but it's ok for travelers, not for remote workers.
Owner keeps everything perfectly clean. He cooks amazing sandwiches for breakfast. They are enough for people who don't like to eat much for breakfast.
The place located in a living area with same small private houses nearby. No noise after 9pm. It's a renovated Japanese house. Great choise for those who want to live in Japanese house.

THIS PLACE IS THE BEST!! The man, Tommy, who runs it is so sweet, helpful, accommodating. I will miss his sandwiches in the morning- if he offers to make one for you, say Yes. They were sooo good. It was a great stay, I arrived after getting caught in a downpour and felt so bad about getting water everywhere but Tommy was so helpful and gave me a spare pair of shoes to wear since mine were soaked through. He gave restaurant recommendations, and I really appreciated his hospitality. The room was comfortable, it’s a quiet place, lights out was around 21:00 I think. It’s a good location, close to a station. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. The only thing to be aware of is you cannot drop your luggage off early before the check-in time, and you have to be out of the hostel during the day from like 12-5 or something like that.

I stayed here when I went to see a live performance at Kyoto ROKA. It was conveniently located within walking distance.
The toilets were clean, the shower room was spacious, the shower had plenty of hot water, and there were plenty of towels provided, so I was very satisfied. The bed was also very comfortable.
