Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: A very nice location, close to the castle and other tourist spots within walking distance The owner was very friendly and helpful. She gave us lots of tips on places to see and restaurants. Before we arrived, she even messaged us all the relevant bus information. The room was large and beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped. As we were the only guests, we really felt at home. I appreciate the opportunity to stay in a traditional Japanese house. Will definitely stay here if we are fortunate enough to visit Matsue and the beautiful Shimane region again.
Summary: Great location, clean and comfortable.

Positive: This is a lovely guesthouse run by a highly dedicated owner. We knew Matsue from previous visits but the owner, Emi, opened up several new pleasures for us. For example, she arranged a visit to a soy factory-it's at least 150 years old-and also treated us to tea. The house is within easy walking distance to the town center and there is a very good bus service. The bakery across the street is a gem, combining innovative breads, whiskey and an excellent music collection. We had fabulous sushi at a restaurant close to the laundromat. The kitchen space is perfect for breakfast. We'd love to go back to Matsue and hope to stay at Kian again.
Summary: We'll go back to Kian on our next visit to Matsue

Positive: KIAN was a great place to stay with our family while in Matsue. We were fortunate that no one else had booked the other part of the property, so we had a nice stay to ourselves. The kitchen had snacks ready for us, which was very appreciated and helpful. The location is right by the Matsue Castle, and it's a good jumping off point for anything in the city. Our host was very kind and provided wonderful recommendations. She even made a reservation for us to tour a local soy sauce brewery, which was the highlight of our stay. If you are looking for a stay in Matsue in a traditional Japanese home, this is a great choice.
Summary: Great location in Matsue

Positive: My friend and I came to Matsue for holiday, and we had a great time staying here! Emi-san was a lovely host and was very attentive to our needs! She gave us many recommendations on what to do in the area that really made our trip!! The location is great as it is near the castle and boat tours. It was snowing when we went, but the Kian was easily accessible through public transport! The room itself was super clean and comfortable. The bathrooms and common areas were also kept very clean. We had a lovely time in Matsue, and enjoyed getting to come back to our cozy room at the end of a long day!

Positive: The location was excellent, steps away from the Matsue Castle and a short walk from the restaurant and downtown area. Although we took a taxi from Matsue Station, there is also a bus that comes to the end of the street and is very convenient. Our host was excellent, very thoughtful and flexible. She gave us suggestions and recommendations and made us a reservation at a charming soba restaurant.
Negative: The guesthouse was as expected, so I have no complaints.
Summary: Great host, steps away from the castle, close to the restaurants and all for good value!
