    The traditional Japanese house concept was lovely. The big standard room was perfect for a couple, with a comfortable Japanese futon on the tatami floor. The location was conveniently close to the train station and Nara park. The friendly and English-speaking host provided a warm welcome. The communal bathroom and kitchen were clean and well-maintained.

    The location of the guesthouse was perfect, being close to popular tourist areas and restaurants. It was easy to find and convenient for exploring the city. the staff were friendly and provided helpful tips for my sightseeing adventures. They made me feel welcome and ensured I had a pleasant stay.

    There were some aspects of my stay that I didn't enjoy. the walls in the private room were quite thin, making it difficult to have a peaceful and private experience.

    The location of the hotel is very convenient, being close to shopping and dining areas as well as popular tourist attractions. the rooms are comfortable, with clean bathrooms and comfortable beds. the shared kitchen and common spaces are well-maintained and provide all the necessary amenities. the staff is friendly and helpful, able to assist with any needs or inquiries.

    The walls are quite thin, so it is important to be considerate of noise levels to avoid disturbing other guests.

    I recently stayed at Yuzan Guesthouse for a week-long trip to explore the city. The staff went above and beyond to ensure a wonderful experience, and the owner's English proficiency was a great asset. The atmosphere was magical, and the convenient location allowed for easy access to all the JR stations. The traditional Japanese-style room I stayed in was beautifully decorated, spacious, and the futons surprisingly comfortable. The guesthouse was clean, had useful facilities like a coin washer and dryer, and the shared kitchen was a bonus. a fantastic stay!

    100% Recommend this hotel.

    Convenient location, clean and comfortable stay. Friendly and English-speaking staff. Well-equipped kitchen and clean common areas. Pop-up coffee shop adds a nice touch. Enjoyed the traditional Japanese experience. Spacious and beautifully-decorated rooms. Comfortable futons. Coin washer and dryer available. Accommodating management. Smooth check-in process. Option to order breakfast. English-speaking guests add to the friendly atmosphere. Cozy and well-cared for space. Common area encourages interaction between guests. A home away from home.

    The guesthouse offers spacious and comfortable rooms with comfy beds and quality linen. The common areas are well-equipped and beautifully decorated. The house has a warm and homely atmosphere, blending traditional Japanese architecture with a touch of 70s interior design. The staff are welcoming and very helpful, making sure guests feel at home.

    The walls are paper thin, so it can be a bit noisy if other guests are loud.

    I recently stayed at Yuzan Guesthouse for a few nights during my trip to Japan. The host family was incredibly friendly and always had a smile on their faces. The bed in my room was one of the most comfortable I've slept in during my entire Asia trip. The traditional house was absolutely gorgeous, and the view of the Japanese garden from my room was stunning. The bathrooms were clean and private, so I didn't have to worry about sharing. Plus, the bicycle rental was cheaper than public bikes. I loved the experience of living in a traditional Japanese home.
