The proprietress and her grandson(?) are both lovely people. The location is ideal for my purposes. For the price point, it can't be beat.

Loved the outdoor private bath.
Our room was a smoking room (no others available for our stay) but we asked for it to be deodorised before our stay and it did not smell of cigarette smoke. There was just a slight odour in the corridor outside our room, as there were presumably smoking rooms nearby.
Food was excellent and location perfect for exploring the Iya Valley area. There is a shuttle bus to the station but best to have a car (there is a big car park). Personnel were all lovely.

I particularly like the interior decor of the room. It is new and modern and yet retain some Japanese elements, like a tatami floor in the sitting area. It is clean and attends to details such as providing a lot of sockets for electrical appliances. It is conveniently located in the Oboke region

The two floor apartment was spacious, very clean and provided us with all the amenities we needed. The shower and hot tub room was huge and beautiful. We loved the outdoor patio where we had coffee in the morning and drinks in the afternoon. The apartment was close to shopping and restaurants.

The overall experience was good. Taking a "cable car" to the outdoor Onsen was an experience. Having said that the Onsen facility is basic compared to some others that I have visited before.
To say the Iya valley is beautiful would be an understatement. The vine bridges, the scarecrow village and gorges are pretty much all you'll hear about and for good reason. They're the main attraction and the reason people go. It's all about the nature and a handful of curiosities like the Yokai museum.
While not the tourist powerhouse of big cities like Kyoto, it does kind of live off of its "in the know" tourists. A new generation of younger entrepreneurs are trying to revitalize the area and transform it into something more in line with their modern sensibilities.
Travel is not easy and requires a lot of planning and preparation. Buses are extremely rare and trains as well. Bad weather can throw a wrench into your plans and mess up everything. Renting a car almost a must in order to visit the more far away spots, but a strong and experienced cyclists could probably do it - maybe. Those hills and mountains aren't always easy! And those trucks get a bit scary.
I stayed in Ikeda-cho, one of the bigger areas of Miyoshi city but still a bit of a one horse town.
But one thing is has going for it is that you can follow the Yoshino river for an 80km ride into Tokushima city. On a nice day, it's one of the best bike rides you could do.

Miyoshi is great.
Miyoshi is great. Spread over quite a few km, this area has so much to offer. I loved the historic elements as well as the scenery/ geography. Most restaurants focus on fresh local produce, and spot on for flavour and quality !

Beautiful & amazing place, The rare grand landscape of the mountains and waters in Japan!!! There are many interesting places hide in the deep mountains, waiting for you to discover, it is a place worth spending a few days to slowly experience and play! And if you hate crowding with many tourists, this is definitely a great choice.
This is a very traditional Japanese house, and so if that's the experience you're after, then this is the place for you.
It's a little out the way and can take a while to get there on foot, but the quiet area is very peaceful.
The beds were comfortable, the dorms had privacy curtains on each bed.
There was an honesty box with a number of snacks and drinks available if you needed food.
Charming japanese guesthouse in Miyoshi. The staff was friendly and very obliging and it felt very welcoming.
The room looked exactly like on the pictures.
We loved everything about it and our stay was wonderful. We would come here again.
We recommend to book with dinner, it was delicious and a great experience.
The beautiful Onsen was included and with free toiletries.
The pictures on Booking don't do the Guesthouse Justice at all ! It is a beautiful old style Japanese House, equipped with everything you need and very spacious. The owner is super nice ! Definitely recommend staying here !
