We stayed here for one night after a full day of cycling and it was a lovely place to recharge for an evening. The bed was super comfy and the facilities were all very clean. We used the travelling without baggage system and when we arrived our bags were already up in our room and they even told us just to leave them there after we checked out and they would deal with taking them back downstairs. Seeing as we were exhausted from cycling it was such a nice detail for them to do the heavy lifting for us!

Make sure to check when the cafe itself is open because we didn't realise it would be closed on the day we stayed here.

Lovely vibe. Very beautifully done up, great kitchen and sparkling clean showers. Room wasn't super large maybe compared to similar priced places in a city, but it was totally fine and a great place. Breakfast, lunch and dinner was available in attached cafe and they were really good. There didn't seem a lot of places to eat in town, so we enjoyed this spot a few times. Interesting place to bike around on a spare day we had. Highly recommend

Nothing to not like. It was a wee bike from Sedoka but we thought this spot looked nicer .

It was a lovely place to relax while cycling, amazing facilities, super clean, very comfortable, had great common areas to hangout and interact with other travellers (even had a bunch of manga to read including all of slam dunk). The staff were amazing, super accommodating and very friendly, despite arriving very wet from the rain, they helped me be comfortable and relax. The cafe downstairs is also a lovely thing to have here, I didn’t need or want to leave this place at all during the duration of my stay, I was able to meet and interact with some other lovely people there and it was overall an amazing experience. 10/10

Nothing, it was perfect

beautiful guesthouse. simple contemporary Japanese design. very comfortable beds. excellent shared bathroom facilities. great location. staff were excellent. we had a small double room 1 night and then had the family room on our 2nd night. both rooms were great. teh family room is beautiful - huge, elegant Japanese design, very comfortable beds. It also has a cafe which is funky and great food. We used this as a 2 night base during our Shiminamo Kaido bike ride and spent a full day cycling around the island. great way to stretch out the ride. our day ride on the island was incredibly peasceful. A couple of good local restuarants and a local brewery within a couple of minutes walk. Amazing temple/shrine complex just over the road.

The hostel is super clean and the interior is very stylish and comfortable! I also would recommend the cafe downstairs, we had a wonderful breakfast! Also, there are good restaurant choices within a minute's distance, we went to Kifune Restaurant and it was an incredible meal with their signature steamed fish rice!

This is great for people who do the Shimanami Kaido, it's right in the middle of the 6 islands, but the last bit to reach the hostel from the bridge is quite long and hilly, so do prepare spare time for that last ride from the east coast to west coast of Omishima Island.

A quaint little pitstop along the Shimanami Kaido, with great amenities for cyclists along the route (including laundry and kitchen). The restaurant-café also looked wonderful, although I didn't get a chance to try it. The nearby sights (shrines, brewery, salt factory and onsen) make it a perfect touristy break and night's stay. I would come here again, absolutely!

Some sound leakage as rooms are close together in the compact living spaces, however guests were typically quiet after 9pm.

Did the shimanami kaido cycling trail from Onomichi and decided to spend a night half way in between the journey. Nice, clean and the most helpful staff you can ask for. Also provided free breakfast the following morning which gave me plenty of energy to complete the route.

The location of the stay is in Omishima Island. You will have to ride about 5km in the island explorer trail from the shimanami trail to get here (a few minor hills to climb).

We cycled the Shimanami Kaido from Imabari to Omishima and stayed for a night. The accommodation is really close to the famous Oyamazumi Shrine (the netflix show 'Let's Get Divorced' had a scene here). Lawson is right around the corner too. Not hotel related but if you're cycling, it's a good 25-minute uphill cycle, so brace yourself for it. But when you return to the "main" area where Roadside Station Tatara Shimanami Park is, then you'll enjoy the smooth ride down.

Clean and very cute hostel type stay - great place to stay if you are doing the shimanami kaido cycling. We had the double room which was very small but very comfortable. Staff were really helpful. There was also a great little bar/cafe open in the evening when we were there.

Walls and floors are quite thin/wood, can hear people move around from your room - it was fine when we were there but could be noisy if it's very busy, big groups staying.

The facility was clean. All the staff we met were nice. We enjoyed our dinner at the bar and also their breakfast was great for the beginning of the cycling day.

It would be nicer if there was a small desk or a shelf to put our things in the room. We had to place our bags and everything on the floor directly. however, the room and the floor were all very clean.
