This is the best Hostel to book on any budget. Since it is also a cafe the interior is upper nice and modern looking. As in the name, the interior is all made of wood and has that amazing wood smell that makes you feel so welcomed and at peace. The boy at the counter was super helpful and great at guiding me through the check in/ check out process. They have free amenities such as towels, toothbrushes, and even have washing machines and dryers. Their WiFi works super well, and overall I had an amazing stay. It was super quiet and you could sleep in peace. This was the best nights sleep I’ve had in all of Japan :) thank you so much, I will be staying here the next time I’m in Japan FOR SURE!!

The accommodation has a good vibe. The staff is nice and adorable to take care of. I felt that nighttime was quite hectic as the residents made noise and cooked. Overall, it's great if you don't think too much.

木の香りにつつまれて

2回目の利用です。前回はコロナ禍で人数制限期間中。4人用ドミトリーを夫婦2人で使わせていただきました。今回はツインルームが取れたので、鍵もあり小さめですがテレビも有り、ビジネスホテルとほぼ変わらなかったです。 ここは清潔感があり、木工もできる施設なのでホテル全体が木の香りに包まれていて、それがなんとも心地よい。強いていうなら?シャワーの勢いが強くてびっくりするくらいかな(笑) 天理駅前の駐車場からもすぐだし非常に使いやすいホテルです。天理に来たら必ず使わせていただきますね☺ありがとうございました
