“Dirty as Hell !”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2011
2
people found this review helpful

This run-down Hostel is managed by a single man and his dog (name is Mie - likes to gnaw on your shoes; Hairs everywhere ).
If you don't mind the grime on/in the microwave and fridge, then you can relax in the mouldy bathroom *yuck*. Beware of the used toothbrush !
I don't know which level of hygienics you are used to, but i prefer my german standard.

We booked 3 nights and "enjoyed" the same breakfast 3 times over (japanese-style).
Too bad no other Hostels were vacant. We spent as little time as possible in this "YH".

- Way too expensive for this little dung-heap. Book elsewhere if you care about your health. -

“Very quirky and friendly place.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 September 2008
1
person found this review helpful

A very quirky and friendly place - we called the day before and the chap who runs it speaks English.

There are a few rooms - one bunk beds and some that are tatemae mats.

sort of a cross between a ryokan and a youth hostel - some of it is a bit DIY and unexplained, but the chap who runs it could not have been more welcoming. Free internet.

Had a great Japanese dinner cooked for us at 7pm and we got to know the fellow travellers. Choice of Japanese or Western breakfast - best to go for the western breakie unless you are good with fish at 7am!

xGreat if you like dogs as there are a couple of hounds that are very much part of the family! As with anywhere that are pet friendly the level of hygiene and cleanliness was a bit low!

Superb location - right by the ferry to the little island and a great place to watch the sun go down.
