This is a little gem of a place! Takeru-san is a wonderful and kind host. The space is warm and welcoming, clean and bright. Our Japanese style triple room was peaceful and so comfortable. The shower is great. We met other travelers in the common area. I think this might have been my favorite stay in Japan. I would come back here just to stay at Couch Potato 😀. Thank you to the hosts!

In my limited experience, this is the best hostel I've stayed in. Like what one of the guests said, it has everything that will make any traveler's stay very comfortable. The owner runs the place himself and is very accommodating.
