Kyotanabe Station accommodation from NZ$107

We enjoyed the large traditional Japanese room, comfortable futon beds, and the nice conversations with the owners. It's on a little street conveniently located 10 mins from Ogura station. Clean room, friendly staff, reliable WiFi, etc. Ticked all the boxes.

Clean and good breakfast

I booked a female-only Japanese style room and I was put in a (cheaper) bunk bed room and 3 middle aged men showed up. I advised that I had booked a female only room and the host just said sorry only mixed room available. The property does not have a dryer as stated- so I washed my clothes and they were wet at 10pm and I had no way of drying them. The beds do not have plug sockets by the beds, just on the wall so they don’t reach to the top bunk. The check in process involves you speaking to someone on video chat. It was overall bad. The place was also hard to find in the dark
