Very nice atmosphere. We especially enjoyed the bar area and the beer! Security is good, we had no problems. Very good location, close to attractions. It would be useful to have information about the local buses. We enjoyed the beach and hot springs during our stay in Kinosaki. The staff were very attentive. Especially liked that they knew who we were every time we walked in the door. They were also helpful with any questions. We had a very relaxing and enjoyable stay. Thank you.

Lovely ryokan and perfect destination in middle of Kinosaki, close to all onsens. Great atmosphere, our room had garden view and it was very clean and enjoyable. Staff speaks enough English to guide us through our stay. We would especially recommend dinner menu in room and trying all their local beers.

Service was amazing and extremely helpful. We were very happy with the size of our room and the outlook onto the Japanese garden was very serene. Location is great - close to all onsen and right on the canal. We had a little trouble finding the guesthouse as we only had the name in English, but everyone we asked along the way was very helpful and friendly.

Perfect service, top location in the middle of Kinosaki with different onsen which 5 minutes walk made this warm and friendly guest house to our top stay in Japan. Thank you for this good experience.
