    Nothing, everything went perfectly.

    The guesthouse was very conventiently located next to Shingu station (about a 3-4 min walk), and the hostess was extremely kind and helpful, even though I spoke no Japanese ! The rooms (with futon bedding) were comfortable and relatively spacious, and the facilities were spotlessly clean. I would definitely recommend this place to any traveller in Japan.

    Location was excellent. Shared kitchen, microwave, kettle etc so you can self-cater with food from supermarket (next door). Very comfortable rooms with Japanese style bedding - new build so everything clean and modern. Hostess is lovely and communicates through a language translation app.

    The owner is very friendly and tried her best to communicate in simple english. The room is spacious and clean. There is also a living hall with microwave, kettle, etc. The location is superb, 5 minutes walk to the station and big supermarket, a smaller supermarket is just opposite the house.

    The innkeeper is very kind and considerate. The room is on the second floor, very clean,cosy and comfortable, and the cute balcony, decoration and all the electric equipments are new. though small perfectly formed, making me feel at home. The flush toilet is smart, there's a faucet on top of the toilet tank. It well demonstrates the idea of resouces recycling.

    All was perfect

    Undoubtedly, this place was one of the best accommodations I have been. The place is spotless. Seiko is a Super Host. She was very helpful to my request. Getting out of the train station you can turn to the left and after crossing the railway it is a two-minutes walk, there is a mini supermarket just in front of the accommodation and a big supermarket 4 minutes up the main road. The Villa is so adorable, if you have time for a little stroll, you will enjoy it. I strongly recommend it.

    Spotless & spacious room. Shared facilities were also very clean. There’s a microwave, kettle & fridge for shared use which was helpful. The owner was so sweet. There are only two rooms and I was the only one staying on my visit so had the place to myself. It’s across the street from a supermarket & a short walk from train station. All three shrines are also walking distance. Great value as well!

    Good Value stay at Shingu Town

    Very tiny but clean shower area and stairwell. There's also no provision of cutlery like disposable forks or spoons even though paper cups are provided for teeth brushing. Mosquito netting only provided on one side of the bedroom window, more English instructions can be provided on using such window, also on the microwave, resulting burning my dinner. Host can do more preventive measures like installing rubber protectors or having plastic hard sheets or luggage fold stool in bedrooms than constantly reminded not to scratch her new floor or staircase.

    New guesthouse and everything is new. Host has created a good and relatively comfy place to stay and hang and mingle. Bedrooms are clean and very spacious. Host is friendly and wish her well and good running of her guesthouse. There's a great sports apparel shop and an award winning bento set supermarket nearby. House slippers are provided as well as basic toiletry, kitchenette except toothbrush. Big balcony to dry clothes out but no provision of washing machine.

    I loved it and felt so welcomed. There is only a small number of rooms which makes it really quiet and relaxed. I always had the shared facilities to my self and the facilities were all really clean and the room was very spacious, light and bright. The host was super nice as well and made me feel right at home. Can recommend!

    Perfect choice when traveling in Shingu.

    The room the on the upstairs without elevator so that you need to bring to suitcase up there. Not a big due.

    The location is very good. Very close to the Train station. You can search "Kitchen Tomtom Shingu" in Google Map then you can find the guest house. The guest house is very new, clean and comfortable. Seiko San is very nice. She would try her best to let you know everything even you don't know Japanese, but if you know a little bit Japaness, that would be perfect. It is your best choice when traveling in Shingu.

    The owner is the soul of hospitality. The place is spotless and the bed is the most comfortable I’ve slept in so far while walking the Kumano Kodo. Plus, right across the street of a real supermarket so great location.
