It was clean. The owner and his family were really nice. Love the stay.

It's my favourite hostel in Japan so far! It is small but cozy. The Japanese futons are nice. The kitchen has everything that you could need. The sleeping cabins are very big! Kosei, the host is friendly and helpful. Staying here feels more like living with your friends rather than staying in a hostel with strangers. A convenience store is right behind it and the train station and the supermarket are just 10 min by foot. I would definitely come back!

The door to the bedroom could shake during the night because of the wind or when other doors opened/closed, which made quite some noise. Luckily it was not busy, so we would just leave the door open.

The hostel is beautifully restored and has all the necessary stuff. It felt more as a home than as a hostel. Though it’s located in a small town, you can access the train very easily and you can explore around Mount Fuji. The owner is truly amazing and so kind. I would definitely recommend this hostel!

Sadly there is not much to do around the hostel, except going to Shizuoka or Fuji in 30 minutes distance.

Very nice owner and took so good care of us! The house is absolutely new and the design is one of the most amazing we saw! Very clean, modern and everything you need. Train station 10 minutes walking distance, Family mart around the corner.

I think there was nothing i didn't like about this guesthouse

A cozy guesthouse, aesthetically pleasing.the woods maybe using pine wood which make it like a muji concept house. A fully equipped guesthouse where u can use the kitchenette except that u have to bring your own ingredients on what to cook. There is also washing machine, dryer, 2 bathrooms which the space isn't so compact so that u can move around freely,not touching the wall😅. I love the location. Situated on a quiet housing area, just nearby the konbini, train station and Aeon. Coming from trip at Tokyo, this is what we need. A serene and peaceful stay. The owners also kind husband and wife, with cute daughter. Overall , it was a homely stay here.love it.

Lovely location for a solo traveller exploring Shizuoka and Fuji! Kind family, clean facilities, and nice rooms!

The common area was very charming and had many conveniences. The staff was friendly and quick to communicate. The facilities are clean and well-maintained.

The only minor inconvenience is that the location is 700 meters away from the nearest station which is a little far with heavy backpacks, but it wasn’t too bad.

The property is cute, well-designed, recently renovated, impeccably clean and functional. There are only three rooms with bunks available in the house, but the rooms are rather spacious compared to most we have stayed in in Japan. The bunks were sturdy and well made and the futon was more comfortable than most we’ve slept on. The air-con in the room is much needed in Japanese summers and the kitchen, although small, is good enough for prepping quick meals and is impeccably clean like the rest of the property. The showers are also fantastic and the bathrooms are great too. A wonderful place to stay overall. The owner, Kosei, is also very kind, welcoming, and a lovely person to deal with.

We stayed in two of the rooms (we had to switch at a certain point because we decided to extend our stay) and both were clean and well crafted. The owner did a really nice job designing the hostel. It was close to the train! It's a small town so there was only a few things that we really needed to walk to. At the gelato shop by the train station there are electric bike rentals. We took them all the way down to Miho no Matsubara and back! If you walk past the train line and towards the water you can access a path along the coast and can see the tetrapods and surfers- amazing! Definitely go to the restaurants recommended by the hosts. We had some really nice encounters and meals. Very safe- we biked home past dark from Miho no Matsubara all the way back to Kambara and didn't have any problems.

What a gem on the Tokaido! Such a nice cost guesthouse with everything you need. Kosei is a fantastic host and we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

It'd maybe be nice if the bunks weren't just bare, untreated wood, but that may be the "vibe" the owner is aiming for.

The location is charming and the owner was quite friendly. Location is not too far from the station. It felt very clean overall, and though the bunks are the sort of handmade type you often see at hostels, they were a good size and the futons were comfortable

Backpackers Hostel Tsubamenoyado is in the town of Kambara, which is a very strategic location especially for those who travel along Tokaido on foot. The convenience store is within one minute walk. The hostel is impeccably clean and the beds are very comfortable. The hostel owner is very friendly and speaks English well. I would highly recommend this hostel to those who intend to visit Kambara.

Nice location and stone's throw away from the nearest konbini and also close to the train station. Everything is meticulously clean and very well maintained. The host owns a small Japanese candy shop where you do the check in process, he's a really nice guy!

Thank you to our host who was very nice. The traditional house was beautiful

The accommodation unit as a whole is not comfortable enough to stay.

Walking distance to the Aeon City and local train station. The surroundings are not noisy and the flow of traffic is not heavy.
