Yoshi is so friendly and welcoming. The reception area and campfire is a fun place to hang out. We rented a barbecue set to make dinner and after that, we toasted some marshmallows over the fire.

Yoshi is such a nice man who goes above and beyond for his guests! He provides bikes and gives detailed maps on how to get around in aso + bus timetables and help u plan stuff out. He’s very helpful and the room was nice and clean ☺️ the location is good it’s located near a store and the station. I would reccomend !!!!!

“Peaceful and comfortable stay”
This is a charming guesthouse with a lot of soul. From the welcome tea and snacks, hand-drawn map, morning coffee, and bonfire, Yoshi has clearly put a lot of thought into creating an interesting experience for guests. The neighbourhood is extremely peaceful, and I am happy that I was able to have a good conversation with Yoshi over the bonfire. The room was cosy.

I had a wonderful stay at Yoshi’s place and felt very comfortable from the very beginning. Yoshi is an incredibly warm, open, and communicative host who truly makes you feel welcome. Even the check-in was a fun experience, with a little lottery, tasty snacks, and delicious barley tea. I especially appreciated being able to use a bicycle for free, which made exploring the area so easy and enjoyable. Yoshi also gave me many great tips and was always helpful and approachable. The accommodation itself is very charming, spotlessly clean, and extremely cozy. I also had the chance to meet some really nice people during my stay, which made the experience even more special. I would absolutely recommend Yoshi’s place to anyone and would happily stay here again anytime.

“The best stay in Japan”
This was a highlight of my trip in Japan. Yoshi, the owner, is one of the friendliest people you can meet, and he will do everything for you to have a great experience with bonfires, hanami and suggestions. Plus the place is clean and near the bus stop. I would 100% go back

Yoshi is likely to be the nicest person you will meet while travelling in Japan. All of his recommendations were really good. I loved his enthusiasm and wished I had more time to explore the area around Mt. Aso.

“Excellent”
An incredibly warm and unforgettable stay! I cannot recommend this place enough! The host was incredibly warm and welcoming. We arrived quite late by car in freezing weather, and I was touched to see the host waiting outside to greet us personally. Upon arrival, we were welcomed with hot tea and snacks, which immediately made us feel at home. The hospitality didn't stop there—there was even a fun "lucky draw" activity during check-in! The host also took the time to explain a hand-drawn map of the local area, pointing out the best sightseeing spots and delicious food. To top it all off, he even made us roasted sweet potatoes, which were absolutely delicious. Our stay here was comfortable and filled with joy. A huge thank you to the host for such an amazing experience!

“Interesting place”
Host was very friendly and shared lots of local information and was able to recommend plenty. Nice touch offering a cooked snack in the evening and free coffee in the morning. Nice that he allows guests use bicycles for free too.

“Wonderful hospitality by Mr Yoshi for a truly Japanese experience”
Perfectly situated for exploring Mount Aso and surrounding areas. Mr Yoshi gave us a wonderful Japanese welcome and was exceptional hospitable throughout. His recommendations were great - east restaurant and the Onsen beside it.

“Cosy, country-style guesthouse in lovely location”
This place was so wholesome. Had heaps of space in my room, bed was comfy, everything was clean and the owner, Yoshi, is lively and friendly. The caravan is a cute little meeting spot and there’s lots of useful info on what to do in the local area. You can use the kitchen too. There’s a couple of lovely onsens close by and it’s possible to hire a bike from Yoshi. Met some lovely people here too and the locals are so sweet.
