Right outside of the hostel is the famous instagram spot. The hostel itself is really interesting concept, suitable for the young. Not recommended for eldery as the staircase to the room are steep and narrow.

Located within walking distance from 3 train stations. Perfectly located right on the most popular street for photography. Do take note that if you book their quad room you'll need to top up for additional pax because the listing is somehow for less than 4pax.

Stylish hostel featuring a traditional design mixed with contemporary elements, and all the accommodations for that type of lodging. Very helpful staff. The city on its own is not a touristic destination, but the surrounding area is full of place to visit, best by car. The hotel’s neighborhood includes many restaurants, and a café right next door.

Beautiful hostel. We stayed in a private room in the annex. Everything was super clean. The shower products and soap are great and smell amazing! If you’re upstairs the ceiling is slanted so just be careful not to hit your head!

Nostalgic design, nice interior and friendly staff. I had an awesome experience during my stay. The hostel located at a small town, surrounded by many old shop house. I like it’s quiet, and peaceful feel. Definitely will stay there again in the future when I visit the place!

下吉田本町通裡的優質旅宿
旅宿就位於拍照熱點的下吉田本町通街上,走出大門就有機會直面富士山,離知名的新倉山淺間公園步行也只要十幾分鐘(建議可租腳踏車更方便),街上也有不少特色店家,無論是觀光或生活機能都ok。 民宿本身是老屋改建,住起來很有古樸的日式風情,房間寬敞舒適,共用的衛浴設備也頗整潔。早餐部分,可至鄰近的咖啡館用餐(民宿有優惠方案),味道相當不錯。

本館に宿泊しました。 全般的に満足ですが、トイレは2つあって男女共有のため、男性が立って用を足したあと、床が尿で汚れているのが気になった。 2つあるのだから男女分けてもいいのでは?

古民家をリノベーションしてとてもステキだっただけに残念。
お安いし、ホテルではないので仕方ないのかもですが、洗面台の一ヶ所の排水口が詰まっており利用出来なかった事とお部屋の一部に埃が見られお掃除が行き届いていないのかなと感じました。

素泊まりで安く泊まれる場所を探しておりました。古い家屋をセンスよく再生しているこの宿はとても居心地が良かったです。 水回りも清潔に保たれていて、気分良く利用できました。ありがとうございました。
