There was a bit of a draft of cold air coming through from the hallway to the main room which was noticeable when you'd sit on the sofa.

Such a spacious accommodation, beautiful garden, and great amenities. Loved the shower!

The property was gorgeous! Beautiful entry, big spacious room, plenty of facilities, the most amazing bathroom ever and the garden was gorgeous! This was an incredible place to stay in rural Japan. There’s a convenience store nearby and great local restaurants. Expect small town charm and quiet.

Narrow roads to get to the hotel but that's probably the same everywhere else in this area.. luckily we drove a very small car but I imagine bigger cars will face some issues with the tight turns.

Well furnished with everything you'd need- washing machine, microwave, tub, comfy beds and a nice garden to look at. Heater was working well and the bathroom was big. We enjoyed the space and the amenities. Even had complimentary snacks and drinks. It's also unmanned so quite hassle free check in. There is also a 7-11 nearby. Very convenient.

What more can I say about my stay. It was enjoyable from start to finish. The location is perfect for a retreat within the regional areas of Japan. We were welcomed in like it's a holiday home, with its hallway into our accommodation as a starter really set the tone as a spacious room to enjoy our stay. The living room, bedroom and bathroom offered plenty which really showcased the attention to detail. Again, I truly recommend this place for a peaceful retreat and it's brilliant during the winter season.

Everything as aspected and above.

It was a spacious apartment as it is the ground floor of an entire house in a nice little neighborhood. Parking was directly in front of the house. The interior felt high quality. It has a good location between the hot springs and Mount Fuji.

Warm, cozy and away from the chaos down at the lake or the $$$ up in Gora and surrounds.

Amazing, clean, large space, good working washing machine as we have been in Japan a while! They provided x2 water, x2 beer and a bottle of wine plus some snacks all for free! The TV worked and had netflix that was functional aswell!

Excellent room, excellent service with free minibar including beer, champagne and even toothbrush for little kid. Location is fine if you drive else it's quite a distance from Yumoto.

It’s just amazing. Everything is new and well organised. The zen garden is beautiful, enjoying your breakfast or a glass of wine with this view is great. Still, it’s very comfortable, we would have loved to stay longer and hopefully will be back someday!

The roads leading to the house were quite narrow for our rental car, but nothing a good driver can't handle (●'◡'●) Check-in is a videocall.

very spacious for 2 people, bathroom and zen garden were nice It's a very quiet neighbourhood and close by bus stops and a konbini (❁´◡`❁) The washing machine was good, easy to use and quick ╰(*°▽°*)╯ (☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞ Bonus: free Netflix accounts because people forget to log out (lol...) ☜(ﾟヮﾟ☜)

We had no complaints.

A hidden gem in all of Hakone. We were welcomed by a modern adaptation of a traditional Japanese home. The hotel felt more like a home than a hotel facility, and all the automation around the bathrooms and lighting made everything ease in much easily. For us, everything was as clean as it gets. Spare towels were also provided, but the property is keen to help whenever needed. The balcony and garden made us enjoy early morning coffees and late night snacks in peace and silence. The double beds act more like one, and they are as comfortable as it gets. All of the appliances, from AC to the automated bathtub work perfectly, and the provided washing machine can come in handy. The neighborhood was very silent, as it is close to the end of the region. Being further away from the main areas is not a problem, as the famous Venetian Glass Museum ca be reached by foot in 20 minutes and there are plenty of bus connections available. Finally, the hotel provided numerous restaurant options nearby and the ones we tried were really great! The place is a must stay for couples, and we are looking forward to coming back to it in the future.

Nothing! It was perfect!

Was spacious and clean, the beds were comfortable and the hosts provided drinks and snacks in the fridge!! It was a really nice touch, also they were very easy to reach and helped with any questions we had! We rented a car to travel but I believe there ate some bus stops nearby!

Area is remote, but beautiful lots of trees & nature. However away from sights of interest. Bus service is unreliable. Waited one hour for one bus. Had to take multiple buses to get to places of interest. Nearest bus stop is a 20 minute walk from guest house. Limited restaurant choices within walking distance. For an enjoyable stay a car is required.

Roomy for two guest. A little tight with three. Backyard was zen like. Relaxing to have morning tea/coffee on wooden deck & watch the sun rise. Beds are comfortable. Bathroom is spacious with lots of body wash shampoo, conditioner, and vanity items. Nice to have an in unit combo washer/dryer. Well stocked mini bar. Beer, water, champagne, coffee, tea & crackers. 7-11 store is a short walk from unit.
