8/10 Very good

Highly recommended
This is a budget hotel, so you don't get en-suite. That said, all the facilities were available and clean. The owner was very helpful on our arrival and with advice about our next step: getting to the ferry. Speaking of which, this is extremely convenient for the ferry as, even with a large wheeled suitcase, it was an easy walk.

Perfect Place to Stay in Yakushima
The place is perfect if you're new to Yakushima or a recurrent visitor. It is close to all of the things a traveler would hope for to make for a pleasant trip, i.e. across the street from a grocery store, a few blocks from some excellent restaurants, a half a block away from the boat landing, on the same block as the visitors center, etc.... The place itself is very nice, very comfortable and clean. The owner of the property is very knowledgeable of the island, and gave me some excellent trekking advice I would not have received had I stayed elsewhere. I highly recommend staying at KJ's place, and I hope to return again at some point.

It is very close from one of the biggest port, Miyanoura, and there is a big supermarket right across the street.

宮之浦岳の登山で2泊お世話になりました。港からも近く、目の前にスーパーもあるのでとても便利です。高速船は時間によって宮之浦港と安房港出発に分かれるのでご注意ください。次回は間違えないようにします笑 大変お世話になりました!

21年11月滞在
3泊素泊まりで宿泊させていただきました。 最初の説明時こそ丁寧にお話しさせて頂きましたが、それ以外は基本自由に出入りできて、快適でした。 近隣のお店情報や、レンタルサイクルなどの情報も館内に貼ってあります。 登山で洗い物だらけになりましたが、洗濯機も無料で使え、対面にあるコインランドリーを使えば即日乾きます。あと、対面にあるスーパーが夜9時までやっているのもスゴく便利です!

素泊まりで2泊しました。6人グループで貸しきり状態だったので、気楽に過ごせました。電子レンジ、コーヒーメーカー、湯沸かしポットなど自由に使え、コーヒー豆も用意してくれて美味しいコーヒーを好きな時に飲めます。夜は持ち込みの焼酎を飲むのに氷も用意してくれました。

位置絕佳、CP值超高的民宿
位置在宮之浦港入口,右邊是觀光案內所,左邊是TOYOTA租車,對面是間大超市,營業到晚上10點,距離「宮之浦港入口」公車站牌約100公尺,位置絕佳。若搭飛機,民宿主人可以免費機場機送。有免費洗衣機可以使用,共用旅客專用中型冰箱。房間有WIFI,雖網速不是非常高,但還好用。唯一的缺點是隔音不是太好,木質地板走路會有聲音。
