Haru’s place is located in a quiet area with a small park / playground just outside the house and also a bread store and vending machines so it is easy when you don’t know what you will be having for breakfast. Located quite far (1KM) from JR station but i like the walk so it doesn’t matter. There is also a station (non-JR) closer but i never use them since i have the JR pass. Haru is a great host, always responded to our question promptly and very helpfull throughout our stay there, the place is very nice, more of a classic japanese house with a little modern touch. Overall its a great stay there, thanks haru!
