“Everything was wonderful about Koya Backpackers.
1) Our host Yusuke was very hospitable and welcoming. We enjoyed talking with him in the communal room. He gave us a lot of good information about the surrounding area.
2)The location in a forest near Hoshino is beautiful and very relaxing. Nearby you have three great onsen. We liked the Tonbo no Yu (トンボのゆう) best. On our second day we walked through the Wild Bird Sanctuary (野鳥の森). We plan to come back so that we explore the hiking trails.
3) The Koya Backpackers building itself is beautiful and atmospheric. It's a Taisho-period wooden house with beautiful woodwork and windows (see photos below).
4) The breakfast was delicious and nutritious (see photo). It was great value.”
“Beautiful Area and such a lovely host. It was about a 30 minute walk from the train station uphill (So beware if you have luggage with you!) It's such a beautiful house, it's quaint and felt comfortable to stay in. Two spaces with locks for traditional showers, baths and it seems there were space heaters for the colder months. There were plenty of toilets and one in our room as well, sinks with soaps and towels. The host provided toothbrushes if needed, has a microwave and mini fridge for guests to use upstairs near the sinks, and a kettle for hot water/tea/coffee.
There is a fan mounted to the wall in our room which was very nice and we could open the windows for cool fresh air. Definitely a great place to stay. There's cafes super close, two combini about a 15 minute walk away, and a place to the left of the 7-11 had such good food at fair prices.”
