    There were exceptionally comfortable beds and WiFi and complimentary coffee inside the room. The location was particularly good and marvellous, a 10-15 minute walking distance from Art House Project...

    The location of the accommodation was great, as it was right by the bus stops and within biking distance of the major museums and restaurants on the island. The free rental bikes provided were a fantastic bonus, allowing us to easily explore Naoshima. The owner was also very friendly and accommodating. They even gave us a ride to the port when we had to leave early in the morning. the place offered relatively good value for money compared to other options on the island.

    The lack of nearby breakfast options and convenience stores was a major inconvenience. It seems to be a common issue on the island, but it would have been nice to have more places to eat.

    I had a fantastic stay at a budget-friendly accommodation with fine views. The owner were really nice by providing transportation during bad weather and picking me up promptly. The spacious room was well-equipped with a complete kitchen, bathroom supplies, and even a washer and dryer. The complimentary bicycles were a bonus for exploring the area. Despite minor inconveniences like a confusing checkout process and limited nearby food options, I highly recommend this place for art enthusiasts visiting Naoshima. I had a wonderful experience and would definitely recommend it to others.

    We got great value for our money at Episode1. The room was spacious, clean, and had everything we needed, including a kitchenette and washing machine. The location was excellent, with easy access to all the nice spots on the island. The staff treated us well, picking us up from the ferry terminal and allowing us to check out late.

    Food for breakfast could have been better, with more options available nearby during the New Year's Day holiday period.

    We had a wonderful stay at this lovely apartment for two. The hosts were friendly and accommodating, great to check in earlier. The hotel was spacious, clean, and had all the necessary amenities, including a kitchen that we didn't get a chance to use. The futons were comfortable and easy to set up, and the provided bikes were a great bonus. The bus stop right in front of the hotel made it convenient to explore the area. we had a pleasant experience and would recommend this accommodation.

    The room was spacious and fully equipped, complete with a kitchen and washing machine. The location was perfect for exploring the island, with most major museums and places to eat within biking distance. The included rental bikes were a great bonus! The staff were helpful and accommodating, even picking up our luggage at the ferry terminal so we could head straight to the attractions. We reminded me of true Naoshima residents.

    The food for breakfast could have been improved by offering a wider selection of options.
