Homestays in Fukushima

Friendly owner, clean house, great location

The whole building felt light, spacious and clean. The bunk I had was comfortable and comparatively spacious, with enough room for my suitcase and backpack inside (bear in mind I'm over 2m tall, so this is no mean feat). The staff member I spoke to was friendly and helpful, and the toilet and shower were all great.

There were hardly any other places to eat for dinner. Yumori had some frozen meals which were inexpensive and surprisingly delicious. The miso pork was so good i had it twice. They serve it with rice and the freshest salad. The women at reception were very helpful and cheerful. My private room was spacious unlike in the newer hotels I've stayed in. Had my own toilet which is a big plus. The free shuttle from fukushima station was handy, but it's also just an easy public bus ride if you want to get there earlier. The town itself is small and quiet. It gives you a respite from noise and crowds and is just perfect for re-energising. I just loved it there.
