Highly recommendable host, some trouble came up during and after my stay but Akane-san has been very understanding and helpful, even responding my questions on late past midnight. The house is also an amazing experience if you want an old styled house with modern facilities, strong internet, overstocked towels and umbrellas, and loads of unusual facilities (such as a shoe drying machine which was very useful in Japan's rainy season). Although please be advised of the distance to the train platform if you're carrying luggage, injured, or pressed in time, because the house is 14-18mins in distance if you're walking normally, or slower if you can't walk fast. The house is too wonderful to pass up though, so my recommendation is to ask Akane-san (the host) for a direction on a bus ride. It will help your mood to arrive at the house smiling, not busy catching your breath. Have a nice stay!
