Hard to get to without good transit options if you have luggage. House is fairly old and there was a smell in the room. Overall, it was okay.

Thank you for staying with us. We are sorry for the inconvenience. We recommend get on the bus. Get off at Fukuchiin-cho. You will find Fukuchiin temple. We are located three houses next to it. About 1minute by foot. I'm sorry I didn't make it clear enough. Thank you for pointing it out. Please come see us when you visit Nara again. We will be looking forward to that day. Kamunabi Akie

Safed by the manager’s quick action.

I’ve had a couple of issues with my bed the first night I stayed there. My body and face were covered in mosquito bites. I woke up and wanted to find someone to hand me a spray but was unable to. I mentioned it next morning being quiet sick from all the bites. Management moved me immediately into a different area and the following night was much better. I really appreciated the manager’s help. Breakfast is excellent. Price incredible value for money. I would stay there again

Perfect stay.

Twice as comfortable as a the corporate hotel we stayed at for well under half the price! Really helpful staff with good English. Great location near the park with bicycles to hire for a small charge.

A jewel in Nara

Posted 23 Aug 2018 on Hotels
This is my go-to guesthouse in Nara. Close to the park, great facillties like a cafe and bar. Vegan and organic options are available. Not a hangout. It's compact but confortable.

Great Place!

My stay was fantastic! Akie was incredibly welcoming and warm. The accommodations were clean and comfortable. I was able to get a quick bite from their menu in between touring the city and taking a quick rest back at the guest house. It was a short walk to Nara Park and main shopping/food areas. I definitely recommend this spot for anyone one traveling solo through Nara.

Great location, comfort dorm with plenty of room in common areas and even a full kitchen. Plus an on site cafe and bar! The staff speak English and Japanese. My new favourite in Nara.
