- "Loved the wooden floors, stairs and fishpond. The owner was very kind and helpful about the facilities. Nice Japanese style room." - "Good location, next to Henro trail, close to restaurants and a supermarket." - "I was in a large tatami mat room with a garden and koi pond. This was the only room available at the time. It was very spacious. The futon bed was very comfortable. The home was very nice with koi pond in the center. The owner seems to be mostly set up for the walking pilgrims. He appears to have many resources available for those on the Shikoku 88 route. I was neither walking or a pilgrim."
