Maybe low numbers of toilet and showers

Staff was so helpful The location was great

Stayed in June 2024

The shower area could have been a little cleaner, but everything else in the guesthouse was very clean.

It felt like a traditional Japanese home. I enjoyed the experience of staying in a very unique place. The staff were very nice and will always give us recommendations and answer questions.

Super well located guesthouse with pleasant common areas and original decoration!

The showers are a bit cramped and grimy and there isn't a great place to store suitcases

It's incredibly good value for money and in a central Onomichi location! The beds are fairly nice and there's a nice communal area at the front

Staying at Anago-no-Nedoko was a wonderful and unique experience, well worth checking it out for at least one night.

The shower rooms need renovation, at least change the mouldy courtains.

Cute and cozy shared space. Comfortable beds.

The shower could have been (much) cleaner. There was mold on the walls, dirty carpet on the floor. Pity!

Beautiful old house, friendly staff.

The showers were not very clean, but the water pressure was good and it was easy to overlook. Also, the sheets were uncomfortable/scratchy, but for a night or two, this was easy to overlook.

I loved the ambiance and decor. The whole building was so cute and quirky and homey. I absolutely loved this hostel and was sad that I only spent one night.

Stayed in April 2024

The beds were a bit thin. It's fine for a couple of nights.

The guesthouse is beautiful and well situated in the middle of the main shopping street. It's close to the temple walk, the ferries and the JR Station. The staff was really helpful and nice. We stayed in one of the two double rooms upstairs. It's roomy and the small veranda over the garden was a very nice touch. The walls are thin but the other guests were mostly respectfful. The showers are great, and we had no issue with the shared bathrooms/shower. The guesthouse can handle your luggage delivery if you want to do the Shimanami Kaido (we had ours delivered to Imabari: we dropped them off at 7:30AM and got them back at 6PM in Imabari. It cost 2200JPY per luggage).

The bed is a futon so it's a bit hard when you try to sleep on the side. On the back it's fine.

Nice guest house in an old Japanese house with a kotatsu in colder months. The staff was helpful and friendly. It's my second stay. I enjoyed it a lot.

Dirty and mouldy showers, very hard bed. No toilet in female dormitory + loud street noises

Very good location & friendly, welcoming staff. Cozy common area.

Stayed in March 2024

There was a bit of mold in the shower rooms. Also the place does not have proper sinks to brush teeth/wash the face. You have to use the (very) small sinks in the toilets which is a bit inconvenient as water spills everywhere.

The cafe and the accommodation have a unique design and vibe. The tatami room we stayed in was super spacious with view into a Japanese garden. Optional breakfast costs 400¥ and is more than enough, though their western style option was not available at the time of our stay.

They said in the automatic message that the café opens at 8am and it is possible to drop the luggage, but actually at that time there was nobody, I had to call. Anyway the girl arrived quickly and everything was fine. Very narrow hallway to reach the dormitory. Kithchen doesn't have a space to dry things, you must dry them by hand after use.

Comfortable beds with very warm blanket for winter. Space inside the bed cabin where to hang your clothes. Equipped kitchen. Nice common space area where to have breakfast and meet other travelers. Friendly staff.

Steep narrow steps to room

Great character, good sized rooms, good location

The house where the hotel is located is so special! That was a really amazing experience, even if the beds are a bit hard (but overall still good!) its really cool! The area is very central, so its very convenient. Super simple check in, nice people stay there too!

Very nicely arranged old house with nice kitchen equipments and common room. The staff is there for you

Stayed in January 2024

The place is not well arranged because they have 3 bathroom but not in women’s dormitory so you have to go to the men’s dormitory to go to the bathroom. Showers were not super clean.

Location, quiet place.

Personnel Atmosphere / decoration

Very narrow and steep corridor inside the guest house, could be a challenge for those carrying large suitcases.

Cosy guest house. Convenient location. Good value for money.

They make an effort to provide all needs within the confines of a small property

Nice atmosphere in a kind of old and narrow building. You could say, a traditional ryokan made a baby with a backpackers hostel.

No bathroom in female dorm, so had to use the mixed dorm one. Bathrooms (and some area of dorm rooms) weren’t hugely clean.

Well located down a cute alley on a main shopping street. Homely decor makes it feel really cosy.

Stayed in October 2023

Nothing really. The stairs are steep leading up to the rooms so I would leave any big suitcases in a locker before coming here.

Great location in the main arcade of Onomichi. Lots of places to eat and drink nearby. An Japanese-style tatami room that overlooked the small courtyard. Shared kitchen and bathrooms are clean and organised.

quirky, cool, and comfy. the fantastic bicycle accomodations really made my stay before spending a weekend+ camping on the Shimanami Kaido.
