Oh my God this is a magical experience! First of all both Kiko and Hisa are the kindest people! Kiko spent hours helping tweek our travel plans and planning the best route based on our interests. Hisa took us in his lovely car with Kiko next morning to a special place in the mountains to see Sakura as it was a bit late for the Sakura in the national park. We spent an amazing day together and then went in the afternoon to the national park. When we came back in the evening they invited us for a house dinner with the son and mother of low of the owner Hisa and another friend visiting from out of town and honestly no words for the experience. An incridible Japan authentic thing! In short saw Sakura, met with amazing people, had a japanese dinner party and got serious help with our travel plans. I could say its the highlight of our trip! The house is very nice, room was big, everything is clean and functional including self service laundry. Thank you so much for everything and see you again one day!

Quite clean and very comfortable. The admins were both incredibly nice. Mr. Takeru, and unfortunately I don’t know the other admin’s name. Kitchen facilities aren’t available, only a microwave, but it was manageable.

I don’t think I have ever rated a property as perfect, but this was one of the best hostels I have ever stayed in. It is immaculately clean, and well located only minutes walking from Nara Station and Nara Park. Hiro-San and his family are the most generous hostel hosts I have ever encountered. They will go out of their way to help you! Thank you so much for my stay here!! Ben (the Kokogakusha!)

It was clean, really really nice for such a cheap hostel, pretty good location (right in the middle of sightseeing locations but not too far from the station).
