"Pros: Very nice traditional Japanese house. You get your own private room and share common areas with others. The house is quiet and peaceful overall. Yano is very accommodating and welcoming! He is very friendly and knows the area very well, even introduced great spots around and helped us plan our trip. Totally recommend if you want to experience the countryside in Japan. We did not rent a car and I suggest renting a car because trains and buses are rare in the area. There are taxi cabs you can book via taxi Go app but for better convenience I think a rental car is better. Have fun!" ~Ubaldo
