Amazing room, it is an amazing place and quiet and near to the bus. Thank you so much Kaori for your kindness and your welcoming, we appreciated our first experience homestay.

Kaori san is a very friendly and welcoming host, taking care of what you need, giving breakfast or sometimes dinner if you need, suggesting interesting outings. Unfortunately I didn't have access to the living room but the room is really nice and comfortable with space, the house is beautiful too in a quiet area, the city center is easy to access by bus, and there is a nice covered market near the house.

Kaori was such a nice host, we had some really good conversations, her English is very good so it's easy to communicate. She even picked me up from the Shinkansen Station and brought me back after my stay. She was always so kind to me.
The room was in perfect condotion and very Beautyful. I really recommend you to pick this place, everything was just perfect !September 2023
Kaori was extremely welcoming and accommodating, and went the extra mile on a few occasions to make sure we were comfortable. The room and amenities were in tip-top condition, the location was great as well (the buses that go to Sannomiya/Kobe stations come every 10 mins). Though it is a rather quiet neighbourhood, my mum and I thoroughly enjoyed gaining insight into the day-to-day life of the locals.

It was my very first trip to Japan and i was very happy about how welcoming Kaori was. She always helped me out when I had questions and always welcomed me when I came back from my daytrips. I can only highly recommend her to everyone who wants to spend a nice time in Kobe.

I had a great homestay experience with Kaori-san and her family. They picked me up from Shin-Kobe station when I arrived and helped me get around the first day. The location is in the Hyogo district so while it is not in the center, if you have an IC card, it is pretty easy taking the bus to wherever you need to go.

Kaori and her family were wonderful hosts. She is a very accommodating and friendly. She helped me with my plans for hiking and made sure I didn’t get lost. Despite having a busy schedule with two children she was nice enough to give me a lift several times. For my purposes the house was fine. If I have the chance I would like to visit again.
