Polite and accommodating host, clean, quiet, good shower. Luggage storage. Close to subway station. Each bed in the dorm has the necessities - private light, curtains and lots of plug sockets. The room was a little hot and the pillow very small and flat but overall it was very good value accommodation for the price

Great stay in a convenient location and nice hosts

Incredibly welcoming and nice hosts, the property is very well located near the castle and a train station. Everything was very clean, convenient, with a very homey feel which made the stay even more comfortable. Slept very well, absolutely no complaints, would recommend and stay again if back in Himeji.

対応は親切かつ丁寧です。 居住空間も清潔で、施設周辺も静かな エリアにあるので快適です。今回はラバトリーの横の部屋でしたので、他の旅客が使用する際の音がが多少気になりましたが、不快なレベルではありません。 また機会があれば利用させていただくつもりです。
