Pros:

Our stay at Tanakaya was EXCEPTIONAL!!! We truly loved every single second - so much so that we booked a second trip back during our time in Japan! Tanakaya and his amazing wife were the absolute best hosts! They made us feel like family and went above and beyond to make our stay magical! The rooms are immaculately clean and every detail is done with love and care! The location is excellent - walkable and convenient, but on an adorable quite side street. This was one of the most excellent stays we have ever been to - we are beyond grateful for our special time at Tanakaya!
