The room was super clean and well-maintained, with complementary amenities (rice crackers, water bottles, etc.). There was a laundry machine, too, which was convenient. The proximity to both JR and Kintetsu Nara Stations (about 7 minutes on foot) was definitely a plus. I highly recommend this place for anyone.

とても良かったです。立地、館内の清潔さ、なんといってもコスパ、満足度は高いです。旅館とありますが形態は民泊に近いかなと思います。そこにこだわりがなければ本当にオススメです。室内の雰囲気、インテリアもとてもセンスが感じられ、自筆のお手紙も添えられて温かみもあります。家族3人で泊まりましたが主人にも小6息子にも大好評でした。 別行動もあったため、鍵が2ついただけると助かります。奈良に泊まるときは次回もリピートしたいです。

施設は、良かった。 でも、夕食とか、朝食の提供はないと記入があったほうが良いと思います。外に行くのが大変な人もいると思います。 もう一つは、寝るときのパジャマなどの用意は必要とか記入されるとか。

宿の裏にコインパーキングがあり便利でしたが、道が狭いため大きい車は難しいかも。 立地も良く、とても綺麗な宿でした‼️
