Cozy place in rural area 1 station away from Ichinoseki town. Everything was excellent! Even the bath - there was already the tub with hot water to relax in. Also enjoyed the breakfast Futons are comfortable and warm so we could sleep without the heater in the mid November

The holiday flat is quite close to the Sakura spot of Tenshochi Park and the Michinoku folk museum. The flat is located at the riverside with a lovely view and is decorated prettily. The owner is nice. She showed us some beautiful places when we arrived and drove us to the station when we had to leave.

The Inn keeper is a lovely lady who always looked after me. Coffee is flat! The hot bath was wonderful and you'll always have it for yourself! Toothbrushes, razors, shampoo, towels and the likes were provided. I also had fun browsing through the magazine corner. The Ryokan is approx. a 20 minutes walk from the station (personally I enjoyed that after the long train ride) and 7Eleven, and 5 mins from the nearest Lawson's. There were a few restaurants nearby that had good meals. All in all, I was looking for a moderately priced place to stay and found a friendly home. Thank you!

Buchoho no yado was exactly what I needed during the busy New Year festivities. It was quiet, peaceful and I could enjoy the facilities at my own leisure. I was able to do laundry, cook meals, relax in the lounge or in my room. It was ideal. It was perfectly located for shrine visits as it was just down the street from Hachimangu Shrine. It is a short walk from the bus centre, about 10mins from the train station by bus. The room was Japanese style and very comfortable. Mattresses and futon are available so be sure to confirm which will be available in your room before your visit. 😊 Bicycles are available to use too. I did not use them during my stay but which was a nice offering! I would love to visit Morioka again and would definitely make a booking with Buchoho no Yado again. Thank you so much!

It was very well equipped for cooking, had a washer-dryer, and plenty of space. The owner was also very kind, giving us a lift to and from the station (pick up after 5:00pm and drop off before 7:30am).

The owner is the most organised man I have ever met. Such a lovely, friendly, and helpful person. He takes care of his guests and house so well. Best place in Morioka where you could stay. Really clean and his recommendations are just the best.

The host Dera San is very friendly and will tell you anything you want to know about the area. I had a great time at the restaurant that he recommended to me. Locals were very friendly towards me. There is a good opportunity to chat with other travellers in the common area. I made friends that way. The house is an authentic homestay experience and Dera San has worked very hard to make it comfortable.
