Review: A wonderful stay
The homestay is located nearby the Koguchi stamp point with a beautiful yards. The owner is a kindly grandfather who has been receiving tourists from Kumano Kodo in this house since his mother, over 40 years. He was a Kumano Kodo Guide and loves traveling. There are many interesting photos of him on the wall.
there are 2 rooms in the house. My roommate that day is a friendly and interesting French-Japanese lady, who is a writer. I used google translate to listen the chatting between she and the grandfather about the history of the Kumano Kodo, which was a very interesting experience.
The meal is great.

Review: Homely stay
Friendly host who came & met us at the end of the trial. He kindly helped us work out transport for the next, & put our washing on for us. We really enjoyed the more home-style food here & felt really comfortable here

Review: Very nice stay after long day of walking
We showed up to this guesthouse soaking from the rain. The owner kindly washed all of our clothes while we cleaned up. The rooms were extremely comfortable and nice, and we had a lovely dinner and breakfast.

No hay muchas opciones en la zona, por lo que el lugar resulta totalmente aceptable. La habitación que nos tocó era amplia y correcta. Sin embargo, comparando con otras GuestHouse que nos alojamos en Kumano, ésta queda por debajo. Nos dieron una remera y un short como pijama. El baño estaba bien pero algo anticuado. El anfitrión nos ofreció devolvernos la plata del almuerzo del día próximo. Le dijimos que no, que preferíamos la comida, y nos preparó unos bollos de arroz envueltos con un alga. Nunca nos terminamos de sentir 100% cómodos en éste lugar. Muy positivo que nos dejó entrar antes del horario pactado (era a las 15 horas e ingresamos alrededor de las 13:30). No obstante ello, cuando le dijimos que nuestro transporte era a las 10:30 horas, nos dijo que el check out era a las 9:00. Si bien es correcto y para eso son los horarios, nos hubiera gustado como gentileza que al menos nos permita quedarnos en las zonas comunes a esperar, y no en la calle con sol fuerte y 40 grados de temperatura. Le pedimos lavar la ropa, lo hizo, pero nos devolvió la ropa mojada para colgar en una soga. Quizás si nos avisaba que no tenía secador, no lavábamos. Pequeñas cosas, que a mi modo de ver, distinguen los servicios.
Google translation: There are not many options in the area, so the place is totally acceptable. The room we had was spacious and adequate. However, compared to other GuestHouses we stayed in in Kumano, this one is below par. They gave us a T-shirt and shorts as pajamas. The bathroom was fine but a bit dated. The host offered to give us back the money for lunch the next day. We said no, that we preferred food, and he prepared some rice balls wrapped in seaweed for us. We never felt 100% comfortable in this place. It was very positive that he let us check in before the agreed time (it was at 3 pm and we checked in around 1:30 pm). However, when we told him that our transportation was at 10:30 am, he told us that check out was at 9 am. Although it is correct and that is what the schedules are for, we would have liked as a courtesy that at least we could stay in the common areas to wait, and not in the street with strong sun and 40 degrees of temperature. We asked him to wash the clothes, he did it, but he returned the wet clothes to us to hang on a line. Perhaps if he had told us that he did not have a dryer, we would not have washed them. Small things, which in my opinion, distinguish the services.

Review: Perfect stay!
Hide-San was a perfect host. He was very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed.
His house was gorgeous and the chamber was very clean and very comfortable.
His cooking was also outstanding!
The guesthouse is located right next to the Kumano Kodo, making it an ideal place to stay while on the trail.
Thank you very much Hide-San, I wish we could have stayed longer at your beautiful home!
