If you’re staying in the Japanese-style room, you will sleep on Japanese futons on the tatami floor. I personally liked the experience of sleeping on futons, but the firmness is likely not for everyone. Just be aware of that before you book and don’t complain about it in the reviews afterwards, as I see some people have done.

If you are looking to stay in a real Japanese style bed-and-breakfast at a good price, look no further than Asumi Onsen! The room is spacious for two people and clean. The breakfast is good, served to you in a tatami lounge. The host and hostess is an elderly couple, who are the nicest people you’ll ever meet. They we’re kind to our every request, let us rent bikes for free, and even took drove us to Shimoyoshida station at the end of our stay. Finally, you will enjoy soaking in the in-house Onsen at the end of the day!

The room was really small, especially for the price. The pillows were the worst thing ever I've laid my head on in a hotel.

The elderly couple were very welcoming and adorable, made us feel at ease. The private Onsen is very good, hot, and relaxing. The owner gave us a ride to the nearby train station at checkout day.

Breakfast was western style would have liked to have option or so for Japanese style.

Super clean and retro very traditional authentic Japanese hotel. Very good for value. Almost brand new tatami mattress. Despite the bathrooms are shards it was very clean and was comfortable.

Nothing was wrong-

Onsen is the term for steam bath and it was really excellent! The owners are simply fantastic, the father Even waking up early to drive us to nearby temple or train station. Highly recommendable

It might be a bit far from the center if you don't like walking. The Onsen water could perhaps be a bit hotter. Overall a good experience! Especially the people.

The couple was very kind and made a yummy breakfast which we ate in a very traditional beautiful room. No beds, just tatami. A private onsen is available. The male owner was especially kind this morning. He offered my brother and I a ride to the train station in his car free of charge just to be kind. It's a very peaceful quaint place run by nice good people who speak great English.

Nothing

The private onsen was amazing and was available whenever we needed it throughout our three-night stay. The staff there were incredibly helpful and communicated very well. The entire place was spotless — from the common areas and bedroom furniture to the freshly washed sheets and duvet covers. A free breakfast was included each morning, which the lady diligently prepared according to our schedule. For us, the bikes were a great addition for exploring the area and appreciating views of Mt. Fuji from different locations and angles. The owner was even kind enough to give us a ride to the train station when we checked out. We highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Mt. Fuji.

The location is peaceful but not very central. We walked from the station on the first day as the buses were not very frequent. (30 mins)We would have been lost without the use of the bikes to get to the pagoda/nearby town. A car/motorbike would make your stay here more pleasant. The host dropped us to the station after our stay which was very helpful.

Lovely traditional Ryokan for a good price. Really nice breakfast included & use of a private Onsen. The host was so lovely & friendly. He allowed us to use his bikes & he dropped us to the station after our stay. Highly recommend this if you want to experience futon beds, a private Onsen & everything a traditional Japanese Ryokan has to offer.

The onsen could be upgraded. The ceiling had peeling paint etc.

Good traditional-style breakfast. They accommodated our vegetarian requirements. The onsen on-site was good.

The location is the big downside of this accomodation. Not only is there no bus stop nearby (1 km walk), but also the restaurant situation is somewhat dire. At least you get some nice views on Fuji on the way

The Onsen of course is the little highlight of this accomodation just like the welcoming host who made sure that we got a ride to the station when taxis weren't available. Breakfast was small, but yummy.

It's a bit dated.

The hosts were so sweet, kind, and welcoming! They spoke very good English which was great since our Japanese is very limited. You can see Mt. Fuji very well! It was a cute little room that felt perfectly arranged to maximize the space and comfort. If you're going to Mt. Fuji you have to stay here!

The location was great, quite close to several scenic Mount Fuji viewing points. The hosts were very friendly, providing restaurant recommendations (Hama had amazing & affordable sushi, go earlier in the evening before the duck runs out!), & even gave us a lift to the train station!! The Onsen was lovely to relax in.

I liked the private onsen, fridge in our room and teas. Yes it was slightly colder, but we were there at the beginning of April so that's nothing to be surprised. The owners were super friendly and we had a nice time talking to them. Possibly to lend bicycles for free was great, yes they are not the newest and definitely not made for tall people, but it was cool.

We had a wonderful stay at Asumi Onsen. The place was clean and beautifully maintained - it felt like staying in a mini museum. The owners were incredibly kind and caring. The gentleman even took us to the station upon leaving. The views to Mount Fuji were breathtaking, without the usual crowds or queues! The Onsen was what we were looking forward to at the end of the day - so relaxing. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an authentic Japanese cultural experience!

The staff is fantastic. It’s run by an old couple who speak English and went out of their way to make the stay as pleasant as possible. The onsen is beautiful and the breakfast absolutely delicious.

Nothing to dislike

Love the authenticity of this stunning onsen. A visit one will not forget. The hosts were beautifully attentive and security minded. I would have stayed longer if I could.

The onsen is just a bit far from the main city attractions (30min by walk) but the hosts let us borrow their bikes on the afternoon so it was very convenient to visit the main street and the pagode. The day after, the host drove us to the train station so that was perfect!

We loved our stay in the Asumi Onsen! The hosts are so lovely! The room was very clean and beautiful! The place is so peaceful, we had an excellent sleep! And the private onsen was really good too! I am gluten free, so the hosts made sure that I could eat everything for breakfast, so I really appreciated as it is hard for me to eat in Japan and the breakfast was excellent!

I did not love seeing cockroaches but I understand it is an older home.

The place was very quiet and amenities were good. Hosts both helpful and kind. My reccomendation is to walk a short distance and take a bus to the train station. Area around house is quiet as well. Nice scenic spots around the place.
