Hotel hard to find
This is a residence converted to a rental place. There is no signage at outside of the house. Address difficult to find. Even locals are clueless. No hotel telephone was provided in the Orbitz confirmation information. I Couldn't get hold of the hotel owner. I finally found their phone number via a separate hotel website. Otherwise I would have been in big trouble. I Was very close to cancel this paid reservation. The property is located inside the east part of the tourist attraction which is not open to tourists without town entrance ticket which costs 100 Yens. The Town is free for entrance after 9 pm. I ended up touring the east town next morning for free although some points of interest are only open to tourists with paid entrance tickets. While I am bilingual, I seriously doubt the owner can hardly can speak any English. The hotel has small bathroom but is otherwise ok and comfortable. The owners are friendly.
