I could not have wished for a better host family. They were incredibly kind and helpful, and very helpful with my Japanese. Their home is beautiful and the room where I stayed was very comfortable and spacious. The meals I had were delicious. The house is very conveniently located close to the underground station for a short journey to downtown Sapporo.

The homestay family is so lovely and hospitable! They have a cozy house, the room is also nice. We got a delicious breakfast and some Japanese practice. I enjoyed the conversations. Also the daughter is so cute! ♡♡♡
I am glad we stayed at this house during the snow festival, it was a nice experience.February 2016
Mrs Katuyuki is awesome. She is really kind, and helpful by giving suggestions for your trip. She and her husband are very kind that they can help you if you ask. Even they gave us gloves free, looking that we didn't bring ours. Her house is very clean and quiet. Plus, she took us to a park where the glass pyramid is in her car. I will come once again to this house when I get back to Sapporo.

It was a great experience staying with the Takahashi family. They picked me up from the station, cooked me healthy breakfast everyday, gave me a lot of advice for travelling around Hokkaido. We also had a fun day trip together to one of the most beautiful spots in Hokkaido. Very nice to meet such a warm and happy family during my trip in Japan! Thank you so much :-)

One of my best experience in my life to live in this homestay. She's super kind and did every thing to help us. We can't describe how much happy and thankful we are.

Naomi & her family were the highlight of our Japan trip!
A warm, caring & friendly family, that went out of way to host & please us, well beyond any expectations!
While the location of their home is relatively distant from Sapporo center (~30min by train), it is within a 10min walk from the Sakaemachi station, that can take you to your destination.
When trying to quantify the value of this stay, it is obvious that it’s worth much more than the actual cost, for any person that appreciates such personal caring hospitality.July 2014
Takahiro's family was extremely kind and helpful, everything felt like I was at home. I had a great time, I will never forget!
