forumWhat families say
Japan's westernmost minshuku, standing right in front of Kubura Port, the boarding point for the ferry Yonakuni. It has 8 private rooms in Western and Japanese-style tatami layouts, plus shared rooms suited to students and groups and a communal bath, and the Japanese-style tatami rooms accommodate a maximum of 3 to 5 guests, so they work for families. The last sunset in Japan can be seen from the terrace and the dining room, and sightseeing guests are very welcome. With a free shuttle from the airport and the ferry terminal, it is an easy place to stay on an island trip with the family.
