The hostel is in a great location and is quirky in a very good way. The best part was of course Satomi-san who goes out of her way to make you feel welcome and explain the activities of the island to you. The bed was very comfortable and the curtains do an excellent job at blocking out light at night. The hostel firmly falls into the rustic category and is very open, there is little privacy, but it has everything you need and more. If you are a neat freak, allergic to clutter or are after a some luxury, this isn’t the place for you.

The owner was really great, took the time and explained everything, how to get to the hot spots and when to take the bus. Everything was clean and a lot of awesome people to meet there! Very very highly recommended!

Lovely room with mountain view, great location right next to a bus stop. Helpfull stuff, they kept our luggage all morning before checkin, and again a couple of hours after checkout. Futon beds were very comfy, the room was clean and just the right size.

The little pension is run by a lovely grandma and grandpa. Very welcoming, even though there was a language barrier, as they do not speak English, we managed to get the point across via translation apps. They offer yummy breakfast and can prepare nice bento for you if you ask for it for lunch. The location is great, near the airport, however car is optimal for the best experience. The location of the pension is close to all of the main routes and key activities. We were staying in the private bathroom room and were happy with the facilities.

We felt so at home here. A wonderful property. Free ambient night sounds (from the nature surrounding the property) to help you sleep. The owner has created a lovely place for stranger to coexist and even become friends.

The room was very cosy and comfortable, the bathrooms clean and functionally equipped with everything you could possibly need. The owners were nice and helpful, even though they spoke Japanese, they explained the bus, the hiking possibilities and gave us food recommendations. The location is perfect, 20 minutes walk from the ferry terminal and close to the restaurant and bus stop so you don't need a car. The breakfast is Japanese but adequate.

we had a great time and loved the guest house. the room was beautiful and spacious. our hosts were very nice and helped us with everything - even picking us up from a bus station and driving us to the nearest supermarket and ATM as we couldn't rent a car. if you don't have a car you will rely on irregular bus schedules - but that would be true for the whole island. there is a bus stop a couple of minutes away from the guest house - easy to get to. you can have dinner and breakfast for a good price and it was delicious. We would recommend it to everyone!

    Lovely guest house with incredibly friendly hostess! It is simple, yet love everything and every moment there! The lady who runs the guest house is extremely nice and helped me book the boat when my initial plan went wrong. I felt home and I also made good friends there. The airport and a supermarket are close by, just 5 minute walk. Free washing machine which is a plus after doing a hike. Will surely come back again!

    Satomi was an incredible host and very helpful throughout the stay. She helped me plan all my hikes and because of her I managed to do the 3 main hikes on the island in my 3 days on Yakushima. I have never had a greater host at a guesthouse. The building has a very fun and quirky interior, it really feels like you are staying in Japanese house. The bed was comfortable enough for me.

    Barbara was such a great host, recommending places to visit on Yakushima and so knowledgeable. The property is in a small town on the North Coast of Yakushima, very quiet and peaceful. Thanks for such an amazing time!
