    Just the construction- but it’s not their fault & was not noisy & didn’t detract from the view or experience.

    Lovely young owners. Great little fishing town perfect after a hike. Shame there is construction out front for a new sea wall. Hope it will be finished for them soon. Still can see the Bay. Great seafood & fishermen to talk with. Great to get up early & enjoy the sunrise. Onsen behind at a discount was great! Nice breakfast & local products for sale.

    The walls are on the thin side, so you can hear guests in other rooms at times.

    The view was wonderful, staff were friendly and helpful, and the cleanliness and attention to detail were great. Would absolutely recommend a stay here.

    It is noted everywhere but the structure is old so sound for noisy guests travels fast. Not Tagore's fault of course and they do provide ear plugs. The showers are tiny. Definitely bring an eye mask.

    Great wee spot right on the harbour. Very comfortable beds and most of the staff are friendly and helpful. Nice cafe bar with good drink selection. Good shampoo, conditioner and hand soap.

    Absolutely nothing

    We loved the transformation of this old harbour building into a airy, supercool hostel. The rooms are lovely and have a splendid view over the bay. The food and coffee are brilliant, as are the friendly staff. We were sad to leave and will hopefully be back.

    Nothing much really! If I had to say something I would say the walls are a bit thin so if your neighbours are loud you might hear it! On the 7 nights I stayed there it happened once that it was a bit too loud. So nothing to complain about!

    The room was super nice and had everything you needed! The view is absolutely beautiful and the sunsets are amazing. The best part for me were the super friendly people. One of the best experiences I had on my travels throughout Japan! Thanks again to the Tagore Team for making the stay so enjoyable!

    The room creeks a lot, so my husband was worried whether he would wake up other guests at night when he walks around

    The staff are very helpful when I have questions and they try their best to answer me. If you are into a secluded sunset harbor then this is the place.

    The view is amazing, the town is really chill and down to earth, local people are lovely. The owner also organize this party once a year called Head for Heda which is worth looking for, especially if you have kids.

    it was such a beautiful and peaceful location, with great staff and people in the city, we felt very welcome and at home. after some days in bigger cities it's nice to slow down in this charming town. the hostel is great with rooms that are clean, nice and all have a beautiful view of the sea and harbor. there are different things to do here, my friend and i enjoyed renting bikes to get around and go to the beach faster. there’s a lot of space in the café area as well, perfect to sit and read a book or play a board game with friends. we had originally only planned to stay for 2 nights but ended up booking two more nights because we liked the place so much. we will definitely come back!<33

    There isn't much to do in the area which is fine for a weekend get away as the onsen and beach as well as a few of the hikes around the area are nice. I think I just stayed a day or two to long

    I loved the view and the cleanliness of the place! A very nice place to relax for a few days!

    What an amazing 4 day stay at Tagore ! The staff was very welcoming and helpful from start to finish. The dorm room is clean, cosy and bright with a gorgeous sea view (check sunset view below). I befriended my roommates and staff. Location is super convenient, bus stop and 7 Eleven are literally around the corner, 15 minutes walk to the shrine/beach. I rented bike for 500 yen and tried home roasted cafe latte. Great place for remote work as there is workspace inside the room and in the cafe. I have been backpacking in Japan for 2 months staying at hostels, Tagore is easily in my top 3. Looking forward to my next stay !
