Aoshima Guesthouse Hooju

The Japanese room style was really nice. The owner was super helpful with any enquiries and being walking distance form the beach and shrine was amazing!!

It seems an old house turned into guesthouse. The bed was old but comfy. It felt strangely at home there. There is basic check-in procedure. Wifi was good. The area seen better days, including cleaning. But in low season like now it is fine to stay overnight. I guess during peak season of surfing it may be packed and louder.

This is my first experience of staying in any guest house. I felt that while staying at such type of accommodations you have to compromise for your privacy, independence, and shared facilities for instance bathroom, toilet as well as bedroom too. As per available facilities the cost was too high. No towel to use after getting a bath. No white bedsheets which itself gives a sense of cleanliness. One large room with a partition or two joint rooms with eight beds and only one air conditioner. Overall the accommodation level is like a” something is better than nothing”.

Good location. Within easy walking distance to the beach. Boards can be rented. Unfortunately, a group of travelers did not respect the quiet rule in the sleeping area. It was quite loud for the duration of my stay. I would hope the hostel enforces the rules more strictly in the future.

All good.worth the money. Bathrooms beds are clean and comfortable. Frontdesk staff is very help.
