Hiroki was a great host and very accomodating. I stayed at his home for two weeks and it was very comfortable. If I didn't have other areas of Japan to see I would stay longer. Felt like a home away from home. Had a comfortable feel compared to a more commercial establishment. Hiroki treated me more like a guest than any lodging I have ever stayed at. Nice little house in a nice little town and not too far away from the big city. Definitely a nice change of pace.
