cozy and friendly stay, tnx

Hide san, He make my first trip in Okinawa and travelling alone is quite good, really impresed.

I would say, the owner, Hide was very special, talented, and did great in executing Omotenashi spirit, rooted in Japanese mindset of hospitality centering around care rather than expectation, during our stays. The house itself was very unique and had all kinds of handmade features everywhere, much to our enjoyment!! I am sure all Japanese and non-Japanese visitors will enjoy staying there. It is not your ordinary hotel experience. Instead, it is a zen environment where you must be respectful to and aware of your fellow guests. During the Izakaya style happy hours, you get to listen to Hide’s Sanshin (Okinawa guitars) performance. The room we stayed in reminds me of my grandma’s house: old and traditional yet amazingly tidy and cozy. I highly recommend it!!

The guesthouse is basic but surprisingly, well equipped and cosy. It’s good value for money. The four of us stayed in their largest room for 3 nights.

It’s always a good stay there. It’s a hostel so you sometimes have to deal with people coming in late etc, but that doesn’t take away from the overall value of this place. Hide-san takes care of a lot of stuff so you don’t have to.

This was my second stay at Goyah-so guesthouse. I stayed there last year and I will again next year. Hide-San is a great host. His friendliness and helpfulness is wonderful. His English is excellent. This is the way to experience Okinawan life.

I hadn't stayed in a hostel for over 20 years so I was a little worried, but it was great. Sleeping on the top bunk in a small room when you are a tall man like myself is going to mean some cuts in comfort, but that doesn't take away from the overall experience. I will go there again next time I'm in town for sure (if there is availability). It was worth the savings, and Hide-san went out of his way in many ways to help me, even sending me my hat in the mail that I forgot there in my room.

This was the best experience of my whole trip to Okinawa. This is an Okinawan Inn - not a western style hotel/motel. Hide-san was an incredible host. Very helpful, friendly and considerate. It was a great stay.

Hotel manager was excellent. Knew enough English to help us. He created bus routes for us which aside from walking is the most economical way to travel in Okinawa. Okinawan signs are Japanese only and the locals speak very little English so our Hotel manager was a god send.

We had a wonderful stay in an authentic Japanese room with fantastic Okinawan hospitality. This hotel is a great place if you want to experience Okinawa from a traditional perspective instead of a standard hotel.
