Great place in the mountains. Modern building built in the traditional style. Very nice courtyard with a koi pond on the ground floor. Views from the room and roof are amazing, and you can walk up the hill to get even better views. Very welcoming host. We were the only guests at that time and he took us to swim in a local pool (and upgraded our room for free). Meals are cooked by the family and are excellent. They also serve you green tea that they grow themselves. Transportation from the train station was easy—just a short taxi ride, and the driver knew the place. For hiking and trail running, paths nearby are mostly concrete or very steep, but I found one that goes behind the mountain that was more like a normal trail. There are probably more like that that I didn’t find. Will definitely come back if I have the chance.
The location is exceptionally strategic where it is easy to roam around the village or to get the view of the village from the opposite side. The owner is very nice, soft-spoken and came out to pick me up after my driver gave him a call in advance. He also introduced to me several strategic spots to take pic while on the way to the hotel but at that time I was too tired to pay attention. Meals i.e. dinner and breakfast were with them, and I would say it is excellent especially breakfast comes with an exceptionally great view.
