"Loved the room and private bath. Beds were super comfortable as well. I would say it was like a memory foam bed. It was like the bed I have at home. Loved it. Staff was very nice as well. Breakfast was delicious as well."

"The host was amazing. Friendly, generous and genuinely happy to have us stay.
The location of the small village of only Japanese people was amazing.
Google Translate, a smile and patience was required to communicate with the locals who were all very welcoming. It was very authentic ryokan. "

"Very spacious, lovely modern decor, so you get both a lovely 5 star stay but being able to enjoy the old town once you step out. Staff are friendly, able to tell you what are open for the night on a map (as it was a public holiday when we went). The breakfast is also worth it (just 1000yen pp?), not the type with luxurious ingredients but it was all nicely laid out and a very comfy cafe which you can easily spend half a morning there."

"We had such a beautiful experience with our one night stay, including a traditional Japanese meal for dinner and breakfast. The room was large, private, and comfortable with amazing large windows looking out on the water. Our stay here is definitely a core memory from our trip to Japan."

"Wir waren im April 22 für sehr schöne 5 Tage in diesem Haus. Das Kokoro bietet die fast einmalige Gelegenheit, in einem traditionellen alten japanischen Haus zu leben. Im Obergeschoss sind Wohnzimmer, Schlafzimmer, Ankleide, Balkon und Toilette. Im Ergeschoss wird gefrühstückt und befindet sich das Badezimmer mit grosser Holzbadewanne. Teile des Erdgeschosses werden bis etwa 15:00 als Restaurant benutzt, was uns aber nie gestört hat.
Die Zimmer sind alle mit Tatami ausgelegt, trotzdem hat es ein...

Soak in the healing waters of Dogo Onsen, Japan's oldest bathhouse, then explore the feudal grandeur of hilltop Matsuyama Castle. Rent a bicycle to visit the city's temple pilgrimage sites or take a ferry to nearby Gogoshima Island for scenic coastal trails.

This place was perfect for our multi-family group coming through for the Shimanami Kaido. The place was immaculately clean and had everything we needed even slippers. It was a beautiful authentic Japanese space with all the modern amenities.
There’s not a lot around but Family Mart is about a 5 min bike ride away. We ordered breakfast through this stay with Wakka which was about a less than min bike ride away. I would definitely recommend this place - a great value stay.
