We can’t rate Chikako and her place highly enough. Not only did she give us useful advice of things to do (based on what I had mentioned we were interested in), but also tried to help us book tickets on Japanese websites. For a family of 4 (with tween girls) the location is great, beds super comfortable and warm, and the massage chair was very well used. And we can highly recommend the restaurant right next door! Thank you for our home away from home Chikako!
