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.

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
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.
