The host was amazing, being so nice and caring with us, as well as helping us plan the trip. Great location, very good breakfast and very comfy beds. I strongly recommend.

Rules, a lot of rules for everything :) The walls are quite thin, so just be aware of that. There is a curfew from 23 o'clock, and you are also not allowed to stay on the property between 10 and 14, which can become uncomfortable if you are planning to stay for a few days.

Great location with a free parking spot. Friendly personnel :)

Far from town, Room big and clean

Check-in times are quite limited, you are also not allowed to be on the property between 10am and 2pm (this was not a problem for us, but could be if you are staying for more than one night). In the spring time, the hostel at night was a bit cold so bring a jumper.

The complimentary breakfast was nice. Our room was spacious and everything was clean. There is a kitchen annex where you can have a coffee/tea in cute Japanese cups. The owner explains all rules well and there were also many explanations in English around the property. The place is small, so it's very peaceful and there are no queues for shared bathrooms.

Be aware that the doors to the room are paper thin Japanese style doors, but this just adds to the authentic experience.

The hostess was a very nice Japanese lady with excellent English. She even offered us free breakfast, which she made herself and was delicious. The rooms were in Japanese style, with probably one of the most comfy beds we ever slept in. The super clean toilet and bathroom were shared, but since there are only a few rooms, it was no issue for us. The internet speed was excellent.

The lady is very strict so it helps to keep the place clean, organized and working fine ( we like it ). If you do not like rules and quite place, go to another hostel. It is not a hostel for young and party person. There is q 11pm curfew.

Super clean and tidy. Bed big and comfortable. We got a family room for my partner and I and was perfect.

Great location and beautiful Japanese room. Very helpful staff. Recommend double checking the rules for going out in the day and curfew works with your plans. Otherwise we really enjoyed our stay !

It was very small, however there weren’t many people around so it wasn’t much of an issue.

Beautiful, spacious room with comfortable bed. Quiet, calm hostel. Plenty of guidebooks on the area. Excellent hostel owner who runs a tight ship.

Clean and tidy place. Owner is very helpful and able to communicate in English.

The owner is an absolute sweetheart. She runs the hostel by herself and does all the cleaning and hostel preparations for your arrival. She is fluent in English as well which is a big plus to foreign travelers. I contacted her that I was going to be checking in slightly late and she said it was alright. The first night I stayed in a bunk and the 2nd night was a private room. I slept very well both nights and the hostel has a very home-y feeling to it. The location is also excellent being <10minute walk from Gekkouji station. Owner recommended me to visit Arakurayama park to get a view of Mt fuji and it was worth it. I went at sunrise with other travelers. It is about 15 minute walk to the location.

You also have free Access to the roof of the building next to the guesthouse where you can have a nice vies of Fuji San. The owner is really nice and happy to help you if you have a question I recommend
