Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: Staying at Benton Guesthouse was one of the highlights of our trip! The house was beautiful and the location was perfect for our stopover on the Shimanami Kaido cycling route. Dani was very attentive and flexible, even helping us with dinner reservations at a local restaurant. We would highly recommend a stay here for anyone cycling the Shimanami Kaido or exploring the Seto Inland Sea islands.

Positive: Incredible atmosphere, decoration was top-tier, and lots of games to keep us entertained in an otherwise quiet little part of town. Lots of little touches like manga and a Famicom and CRT TV give the air of a time-shifted, comfy home. The Japanese decorations tell a breathtaking story, too. The tour was a treat, too, turning the stay into one part museum, and another part biography of the former owner. I can't wait to stay there again.

Positive: Where should I start....wow this is such a cool and very clean house. The owners are very helpful and friendly. The house is full of history and tradition. If you would like to say you stayed at a real Japanese House, I guess you can't find a better place. It is not a Japanese style room in a hotel somewhere downtown. It is a real Japanese House in a small village. Your neighbors are not tourists but people living in this village. The house has great sleeping rooms and a nice and well equipped kitchen. Also a historical phone and original lamps...don't miss the chance to stay there...

Negative: Absolutely nothing

Positive: I don't leave a lot of reviews, but this place was so special that it merits one! We stayed here for a quick one-night stop while biking the Shimanami Kaido. The care put into rehabbing this once-abandoned home while keeping the spirit and integrity of it intact is awesome! I really enjoyed playing the functioning Family Com game system and just exploring all the subtle touches that gave the home it's traditional aesthetic while incorporating modern amenities. I would recommend this stay to anyone!

Positive: Great spot to spend a night on the Shimanami Kaido. Full run of the house and lots of space with an area for our bikes. The owner arranged a dinner booking for us which was super helpful. The kids loved the working famikon! Its surrounded by fields and other houses, super authentic Japanese village vibe.

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: Our stay at Benton Guesthouse was brief but great. We stayed a night in the middle of the Shimanami Kaido cycle and enjoyed having such a spacious and special place to break the trip. There’s plenty of room, both a western bed and tatami options, retro touches throughout and a lovely outlook onto the host’s productive garden. I made a small mistake when booking and Dani was understanding and generous in her response. Dinner options nearby are limited so Dani’s advice and assistance in helping us plan our stay was welcome and appreciated. Would love to return someday and enjoy the peace and quiet of this lovely house.

Negative: Nothing, it was exactly as described and shown in the photos - perfect!

Summary: Atmospheric traditional house in a peaceful location with excellent hosts
