"Pros: Good value. Spacious rooms. Relatively large beds. Quiet area. Easy, ample parking. Hotel connected to a convenience store. Good free breakfast. Walking distance to Amaterasu train attraction. Cons: A bit further away from Takachiho Gorge, about 5min drive. No view from hotel. Laundry was a bit expensive, had to buy detergent from the front desk separately from the laundry machine fee. "

"Everything good😍"

"Great hotel."

"This was advertised as having a kitchen. Kitchen facilities are in another building that are communal. The other option is to rent a gas burner. Everything is extra (e.g. trash, gas burner). Heater for room kept turning off. Barely enough space for 3 futons. Japanese communal bathrooms near bungalows, western style in main building. We only stayed one of the two nights booked even though we did not get a refund."

"It was an excellent stay. The place is neat and comfortable, the staff are very friendly and helpful. The food was amazing, showcasing the freshness of Kyushu's local ingredients. Not to mention the private bath with sauna room. I would definitely come back for another stay at Takachiho. "

"Amazing service and great facilities. We were lucky to be the only two in the house so it might get a little squishy when its full. Works great as a platform on the way to Takachiho Gorge from the Usuki ferry at night."

"We loved our stay at Pumping Surf. The hosts were incredibly kind and picked us up from the train and took us out to a local spot for udon. We were easily able to rent a surfboard and walk to the beach. Being able to use the bicycles was also a huge plus so that we could get into town to buy groceries and have lunch. I would definitely recommend staying! "

"The property was more like a business hotel setting with a small room. If you're looking for Japanese experience, it's not a property for you. However, it was fairly new and clean, the staff was very friendly, and the service was awesome! Our reservation didn't include dinner or breakfast, but we were able to add breakfast for ¥1500 per person at the check in. We didn't add dinner because there were plenty of restaurants near the hotel to close from. The front desk staff provided us with a map of all restaurants in the area. The breakfast there was a buffet style with basic Japanese items such as rice, miso soup, grilled fish, natto, tofu, etc. Not too spectacular, but it was fair. One last thing - the hotel is not a walking distance from the gorge for average American people."

"This place is a bit special. Lovely setting next to river. Staff very friendly and facilities clean. Stayed in a tree house one night. Was a great memorable experience. Used an e-bike and went around the local area, past rice fields and old shrines. One of the highlights of our trip to Japan. "
