Host: the caretaker of the temple was conscientious, prompt in correspondence, and knowledgeable about the area.
Lodging: simple as billed. Bedding and temperature control allowed a good night's sleep. I was the lone guest which was unexpected privacy.
Other: close in location, good transit access, in house cat kept to himself/herself (did not check underneath), unfortunately I missed the miso breakfast and Buddhist service. Indoor bicycle storage.
