    The room would benefit from a small table/reading lamp.

    Conveniently located, quiet room, nice common space, super clean, very comfortable bedding

    Is an overnight in Kamakura part of your travel plans? This site is clean, compact and accessible.

    Could be a better system for keeping windows open in the rooms. Also I was new to hotels where the managers are not on the premises at all or just for the few check-in hours, which leaves the place a bit empty.

    Location as close as possible to the main Buddhist temple complex AND the train station, with a Lawson's convenience store a few buildings away. Rooms very compact but tasteful and well laid out. The downstairs common area spacious and elegant. Nice collection of art books to peruse from. And the proprietress, who is there for just the three hours of check-in, is extremely warm and engaging.

    The room was very small and hard to manoeuvre with any big luggage, but manageable for a short stay.

    The host and location are the biggest stand outs for this small but effective stay. From the moment we got there the host greeted us with a warm smile and all the information we could possibly need making our introduction to Kamakura super easy and welcoming. The stay is located just behind Kita- Kamakura station which was amazing as we could get to any attraction or area we wanted to see. There was no issue of Train noise as the station is very quiet. There are a few Small cafes and breakfast spots on the road just outside and there is a Lawson 1 minute down that makes everything just that bit easier! Great location and a very kind host.

    The toilet area can get cold at night, so i had to layer up to go to the toilet. im someone that needs to drink warm water, but the kettle was downstairs at the common area. So laziness won over me and i just make do with what i have in the room.

    Is really near the train station and there's a convenience store nearby if you need anything.

    None,everything’s great👍

    Located just next to Kita-Kamakura Station, about 2-3 minutes’ walk. The room is clean and well-organized. One can hardly feel that the it is actually quite small ( another good feature though, easy to fetch anything and all are at hand). Japanese-styled decoration with actual tatami, AC and a great bathroom and everything people can ask for in a hotel. The hosting lady is one with kind heart and hospitality, I had a good time chatting with her in Japanese (it’s ok if you don’t speak Japanese, the translator she used is of great help)

    New building. Clean, very nicely furnished rooms, Japanese-Scandinavian style with pleasant smell of fresh wood. Comfortable futon bed. Spacious common room. Neighborhood calm and quiet (note that there is a railway station next to the building, but I had windows closed and AC working, so it didn’t disturb me at all). AC works really well also when it comes to air dehumidifier, which was good as despite October the weather was rainy and warm. The owner is super nice and helpful! The place is outside Kamakura, but close to all major temples and two hiking trails - Daibutsu and Ten’en; very green and quiet with lots of small shops, bakeries and good restaurants. Also it’s only 3 min ride with the regional train from Kamakura Station. Fully recommended!

    It will be even better if there are luggage storage / lockers available at the hotel.

    Easy to find. There are a few hidden gems in this part of Kamakura, all are within walking distance to the station/hotel.

    Honestly, the only complaint is that you can hear the trains going past. Not surprising given it’s right next to the train line. If you’re a lighter sleeper, some earplugs would be a good option.

    The accommodation was spotless, and a short walk from Kita-Kamakura station, so ideally situated for exploring Kamakura and surroundings. A comfy bed, and roomy shower were welcome after a long day of exploring. The staff were lovely, and despite my minimal Japanese, we managed to communicate well. Great stay!

    Hot water sometimes takes a while to come out but other than that, it was great!

    Very cute place to stay! Loved the vibes and how clean it is. Location is very close to the station, only a set of stairs up to the rooms. People are very nice there.

    The property entered my room to clean up the space without notice; they took nothing though. Travellers need to prepare their own toothbrush and toothpaste as they do not provide such amenities. The crew seems unable to understand English so if you wanna make sure if you can check in/out by yourself, the answer is YES. This is an unmanned facility and customers can easily check in anytime after 3 pm, even after 6 pm. One only need to check in between 3 - 6 pm if you need assistance.

    The room with the AC is nice.

    Everything is good.

    Comfortable room, very clean. The garden in front of the house is very beautiful. No noise, so I had a good sleep there. Good location, 5 minutes walk to the kita-Kamakura station. Nice staff, although she speaks only Japanese, there’s no problem checking in. And she’s so kind that when she knew my credit card was lost she said she could lend me some cash.

    The building was mainly built with wood, so when customer in the next room is opening or closing their luggage, the sound was loud and quite annoying.

    It was comfortable and clean, great location and many restaurants or shops available nearby.
