There is nothing i can mention about. "what i did not liked" because this is one of the best hostels i ve been in.

Breakfast were perfect! all the time! Also the location is in the middle of main peninsula i would say and it was close to north and also to south part of the island. Host is super cool and u gonna have everything what you need. Nothing more, nothing less, is just everything what u need. Clean, perfect amenities, super kind staff and lot of things u can use and rent. Thanks one more time. Adam from Slovakia!

Very nice hostel with a friendly social vibe. Big lounge to hang in as well as a rooftop. The beds and everything is comfortable. The owner is very friendly and helpful, he will go out of his way to ensure you have a great stay. He dropped me off at the bus, and also gave free access to the bicycles and snorkeling gear which made exploring the area that much better. Thanks for having me!

I have to give Ryota, the host of Ryukyu Guest House, such incredible praise. What he has built up on his own and how he treats the guests is just incredible! I have never been to a better and so familiar accommodation. Ryota takes care of all the concerns you have and is just a really sweet and nice person. About the hostel: There's one common room with a nice comfy couch, a quite well equipped kitchen and a big dining table. There is a big, private shower and you can use washing machine and dryer for free! Because it is a music hostel, there are all kinds of instruments, which you can play at anytime. Downstairs are the bunk beds which are incredibly comfortable and the AC cools the whole room down to an acceptable temperature (speaking for the summer). Outside there is a big table, usually used for chatting or eating. The same goes for the rooftop, where you can sit down and relax as well. It's located quite close to the castle ruins (which is a beautiful spot for watching the sunset!) and you can reach everything else pretty easily as well because: You can borrow bicycle for free! Rent a scooter for 500 Yen a day! And rent cars for not too much as well! Yomitan is amazing for diving and snorkeling and if you shouldn't have snorkeling equipment, don't worry, because you can borrow that too for free! If you have any questions about where to go and what to do, just ask Ryota, he knows the best places. One thing that makes it even better, is the freshly made and free breakfast that you get every morning! It is so good! If you are began or vegetarian, just tell Ryota and he'll think of it when making your breakfast. Especially if you want to meet new people and make friends, this is the perfect place to go. Most guests are Solo-travellers and are open for conversations. I had the pleasure to meet some amazing people! All in all, it's just an amazing place to stay and I can recommend it to any traveller that comes to Okinawa.

I loved spending time at this place during my stay in Yomitan, the owner is very welcoming and the people I met there were also super friendly Plus, you can freely use a bike to visit the city which is convenient Thanks 🙏

I didn't have more time to stay

The atmosphere is really welcoming and relaxt, Ryota does an amazing job of making the place comfortable. Great value for money. Very very clean, which is a tough job with all the humidity. The beds are sturdy frames that don't move around when people do, with curtains and each their own dimmable light. Plenty of space in the rooms. It's small scale with a total of only ten beds divided over two dorms, four female dorm beds and six mixed dorm beds. Perfect size in my opinion. The car rental is very cheap for what you get. Free bikes to use. The Yomitan peninsula has some very nice beaches and places to visit. Highly recommend.

I had an amazing stay at this place! While the location is a bit off the beaten path, it’s absolutely not an issue – the host is happy to pick you up if you let him know. The area is wonderfully quiet, making it the perfect spot to relax and unwind. The breakfast was by far the best I’ve ever had at a hostel – freshly prepared and absolutely delicious! There are also free bicycles and snorkeling gear available, which added so much fun to the experience. There are also various musical instruments available to play, which I thought was a really nice touch. The host is super friendly, always available, and incredibly helpful. There's a fully equipped kitchen for cooking, a laundry area, and a supermarket just a 12-minute walk away. All in all, a fantastic experience – I’d definitely love to return someday!

Super kind and very helpful owner. He provided us with bikes and snorkeling equipment. Delicious breakfast included. We also rent one of his cars. Unbeatable price. We would choose his hostel again anytime.

nothing I didn't like the castle was just so so nothing really spectacular but a nice outing by foot. Thanks to the great directions again from the owner

very surprised the owner picked me up at the bus station at night breakfast was delicious beds were comfortable loved the deck peace and quiet is a music hostel but very quiet nothing too noisy owner very friendly filled me in on the details great customer service loved the place would highly recommend The owner dropped me off at a convenience store and recommended that I buy Sushi. For 12,000 yen I had at least 15 pieces. So delicious. I ate on the deck and savoured every mouth full. Can't beat the price other restaurants charge 12000 yen for just 3:pieces. The owner dropped me off at a bus stop to go to my next place. Saw a sign after walking back from the castle. It was very clear and visible. All the travelers at the guest house were also very friendly Super customer service

The Hostel was really nice - big common area, outdoor chill spot and the rooms and bathroom were great. The bed area was really spacious. They have instruments you can play and a really delicious free breakfast. The best value for money hostel I have ever been! The owner Ryota is very nice and helpful - I highly recommend 🫶

The owner, Ryota, is a lovely guy who is very funny and friendly. He makes breakfast for you every day and is always receptive to your vibe. He gives great recommendations for local gems to visit and with free bicycle rentals and snorkelling gear, you can experience the area to the fullest. 100% recommend this hostel

Hardware-wise may not be the most advanced/modern, but that was known when I booked the place.

Really expectation-beating breakfast. The host is very helpful and attentive. Free bikes to use. Comfy bedding.

That I had to leave it and come home.

Amazing people, and the most comfortable bed! This isn’t a little hostel it’s a community. There were multiple times that ex guests came back just to hang out and jam on the instruments or just talk. Was also the most comfortable mattress in Japan so far!!

Ryota is an incredible, kind and considerate host. The place feels more like a home than a hostel. Fantastic guests and atmosphere. Would highly recommend and would most definitely stay here again. You can use the bikes to go to Zanee beach which is stunning!
