[Tokyo ]Comfortable even for beginners! Stylish guesthouses and hostels

"The building of toco. "is divided into two parts: an accommodation building and a reception/bar area. The accommodation building is an atmospheric, renovated old private house that is over 100 years old. After completing the reception and opening the door leading to the lodging wing, you will find yourself transported back in time to more than 100 years ago!

The well-kept Japanese garden-like garden is quite quaint. Fuji. "toco. "'s Fuji mound is named "Shimotani Sakamoto Fuji "and is registered as an Important Tangible Folk Cultural Property.

The accommodation building is a rustic space that is just like a good old Japanese grandma's house. There is a cross corridor with a porch, mixed dormitory and women-only dormitory with tasteful wood, and queen's double private room with a modern atmosphere.

Also, "toco. "has the best kitchen utensils and seasonings of all the guesthouses I have seen in various guesthouses across Japan, making it the perfect guesthouse for those who want to stay for a long period of time while cooking for themselves.

And another attraction of "toco. "is "a bar where travelers and locals can mingle ". Guests from Japan and abroad, as well as local customers of all ages and nationalities, visit the bar to chat over drinks and food. Many of the regulars like to talk, so you can get to know each other even if you are meeting for the first time! The food menu includes snacks such as nuts and persimmon seeds, and rice dishes such as curry and gapao, all of which are delicious.

"A stay at toco. "itself is sure to become a memorable part of your trip to Tokyo.

When staying in a dormitory, you may be concerned about "bunk beds shaking ". When other guests sleeping on the upper and lower bunks turn over or get up, their own bed shakes, making it difficult to sleep calmly, as is common in dormitories.

But the bunk beds at "Komatsuya "are different. The sturdy wooden beds, built by downtown craftsmen, have bed posts fixed to the wall, allowing you to sleep peacefully without worrying about swaying.

The inside of the building also has a warm and lovely space handmade by the owner. The free space and rooms are decorated with dried flowers and cute ornaments, making you feel relaxed. At the back of the free space just inside the entrance is a small tatami space with books, records, guitars, and other items. You can spend a blissful time lounging while listening to your favorite records.

Please note that there is no kitchen in the building, so if you would like to eat in the building, supermarkets "Life "and convenience stores such as Mini Stop are conveniently located within a 10-minute walk.

The owner is a very friendly person, so it is fun to talk with him about your travel memories!
