Kuchinoerabu Island, Yakushima hotel rooms at the Independent

"Clean, friendly staff and lots of restaurants nearby! "

"Beachfront Ryokan style. Great beach, view and hospitality. 10 stars. "

"店主友善及地點不錯"

"Got a bus stop right in front of the building which is great for catching early buses. Miyanoura is the busier area on the island but cant compare to cities, so its already quite good location with short walk to supermarket and restaurants in the area. We love the scenic views right from our room towards a river and mountain at the backdrop. Staff speaks limited English but sufficient to keep you served friendily. Note there are only stairs, ie not barrier free nor friendly for your fatigue legs...

"Staff was nice, room was clean, food was tasty. Not all the staff spoke English though, so best to have an electronic translator at hand."

"A really unique property in a lovely and convenient location, used to dealing with hikers and international guests. Great bath, good breakfast buffet, and pleasant staff who are all eager to help you have a great experience on Yakushima, no matter what you plan to do! I hope I get a chance to go back someday. "

"Beautiful location, lovely staff, charming accommodation - highly recommended!"

"It was a great stays in Yakushima with minshuku Umikawa. Very near to the pier , bus station and supermarket! "

"Seriously don't stay here!!! First it's not really a hotel, it's a guest house which run by a man and woman. The place is hard to find but that's not actually the real problem. The attitude of the guy is very rude and unprofessional that I couldn't believe. On the check out day at 10:06 the guy came and started pounding at the door, when I opened it he took the door from me opened it widely while I was dressing up and said "check out now!" I have traveled to over 25 countries and stayed in...
