Nothing. Even if you might find something inconvenient to you, the owner's hospitality will turn them into a memorable experience.

The owner was super nice. Although we arrived very late at night, he made all possible effort to guide us through until we went to sleep. The building itself looked a couple of decades old, but every item I used was kept very neat and clean.

A little bit cold due to rainy weather but you can use an AC in the room.

Good location like only five mins from train station to the hotel. Really convenient to travel to izu kogen or izu shimoda if you got a two day pass or three day pass. Close to the ocean so you can hear the waves all days

The view from the room was amazing and the owners super kind. He can speak English, Japanese and Chinese which is super convenient for any travelers. We even got a ride to the next combini when it was raining and the closest one was already closed.

Because the hotel is in an old house, there were some concerns: the showers were fine, but there was not enough hot water to store hot water for the baths, and the facilities were showing their age, but overall, the hotel was kept clean, which was not a problem given the cost of the stay.

The support of the friendly staff, and the good location near the fishing port and hot springs, with bath and face towels, toothbrushes, and paper cups as amenities.

Easy to find and in a very nice location. Hosts are very kind and helpful!! They went above and beyond to help out, even giving us a ride to the station when it was raining.

Really minor: the host forgot to provide towels in the room, but quickly had them available when asked.

The property was extremely clean and the host was welcoming. The closest convenience store in Japan was closed and the host offered us a car ride to the next closest convenience store. Because of the number of bags we carried, he also gave us a ride to the train station after we checked out. We deeply appreciated these gestures since we had been walking quite a bit with our bags. The location is a nice getaway from the busy cities since you literally are next to the sea.

The accommodation is just 1 minute from the coast, a very nice place. The host was very friendly and kind, the tatami room was comfortable and warm in winter. High recommendation

There is a lack of restaurants in the village but it's very easy to jump on a train and go to the next town.

Very friendly and helpful host, a good size room with an excellent view and adequate facilities. Absolutely loved the village. Found a lovely spot for watching the morning sunrise. Nice natural beachside hot spa to soothe away the days troubles.

Knowing the place, I would have stayed longer.

The kindest owner I've ever had. He cares about our comfort and has a genuine curiosity about the guests. I felt like at home. Really cozy and comfortable stay. 100% recommended!

Be sure to check out the onsen on the rocky beach at the north end of the walkway. Soak in the warm water while viewing the ocean.

Wonderfully charming room and guesthouse, in an excellent location. Close to forest walks and an un-missable seaside on-sen, with friendly and helpful hosts. If we are ever in Izu Hokkawa again, we will be sure to stay here!

A lovely guest house in a quiet location on the ocean. Perfect for a weekend getaway! I felt extremely welcome by both the host and the other people staying there. The host is extremely kind, open and welcoming.

The owners of the gutesthouse where super friendly, i felt like home there. They helped me with the planning of short trips around the peninsula, gave me a lot of tipps and answered all my questions. If i could, i would have stayed much longer! The village is very calm and peaceful, and with a short trainride you can go to all the other villages and places around the peninsula. I really enjoyed my stay here! Best guesthouse in japan!

Nothing!

Its a good location for a quiet, relaxing holiday in a small town. We stayed over the weekend, its easy to take the train to other towns (although it doesnt go that frequently). The nearby Hokkawa onsen (Kurone iwaburo) has to be one of our favorite onsens we have visited, with the bath facing out to the sea, really recommend a visit!! The owner of the guesthous is very sweet and made sure we were comfortable during our stay. Will definitely come back!

The wooden stairs on the second floor are a little bumpy, and it hurts to step on them. I hope you can add a non-slip cushion.

The accommodation is very close to the seaside, so you can get up early to watch the sunrise. There is an open-air hot spring (Heigen Rock Fenglu) next to the accommodation. Watching the waves soak in the hot spring, it is a wonderful experience.

The owner was so friendly, the space was clean and comfortable, and the location was convenient. All for a low price!

It was a bit small, there was no common area to work/read or chat with others. If you need a work space for your remote-work, it should be better to prefer other places.

It was close to train station and the sea. Facility was clean, and staffs were kind. If you need only bed to sleep with no special request, it might good for you. Wifi is available. Dormitory room is mixed but each bed has curtain, so you have your private space. Also there is fan, plug and lamp in the bed.

The only complaint is the hike up to the train station on the top of the hill, but no one can do anything about that.

The host was very helpful and friendly. He and his wife really wanted to make sure that I enjoyed my time and I was comfortable while I was staying with them, which I absolutely was.

Very polite & kind host.

The owner treated us so nice! The property is in a quiet village but very close to the train station. Our stay was very comfortable. The owner even allowed us to keep our luggage there after checkout and then gave us a ride to the train station. Would definitely come again!

- Walk from the train station to the guest house is a.short distance but a steep slope, luckily the host drove me up on return

-The host very willing to share attractions around the Izu area - Bedding set super comfortable - Able to speak Chinese
