One of the coolest and most creative places I’ve ever stayed. Huge space with plenty to watch! Our host was also unimaginably helpful. He gave us great recommendations for food... read more and parks and made us feel very at home. This place has got to be the best place in Gotemba and definitely worth staying while in Japan!!!

We rented Kosuke's place over the... read more few days we were hiking Mt Fuji and it was perfect for easy access to transport as well as plenty of space and laundry facilities for hike prep and pack down.

This is a great place. The Theatre Room is spectacular and perfect when you need to chill out during your trip in Japan. The host - that you actually meet... read more in person - is very welcoming, helpful and eager to make your staying as nice as possible, while never being intrusive. The place is also greatly decorated with lots of charm - not like many other Airbnb places that are impersonal and look like an Ikea store - and has a great book library. Highly recommended.

Wow. One of the best Airbnb’s I have stayed at. Thanks to the hosts passion and creativity the theater has been restored in beautiful and thoughtful ways. It was an... read more immersive experience that I wish I could have enjoyed longer.The bnb is large with several rooms and beds. 2 different shower rooms and toilets. Large living room, kitchen, and an even larger theater, of course. Everything you could need and more. I stayed in January so my only note is of course it was a bit cold You should definitely use the heaters and blankets the host provides. The cold was no problem tho because the host offered many times information on heating and extra blankets. The host was very responsive and helpful on every request and question. He even waited for us to arrive at maybe 9pm so he could show us around and how to use the facilities.It is directly across from the station. Just a few minutes walk.Walk down the street one minute and you see Mt. Fuji! I would write more but out of space. Thanks!

We enjoyed the spaciousness of Kosuke’s place. As described, it feels like a home but not one filled with Ikea furnishings. It is rare to have 2 showers and 2... read more toilets in a Japanese home and that appealed to us immensely. Kosuke is a great host. He checked on us to make sure we settled into the apartment we well. He has heating devices to warm the beds which we loved.

Amazing space for watching films and experiencing local places. Theater has historical significance so it’s cool that it’s kept alive with a place to stay and private screenings. The bathroom... read more and showers are modern and the water pressure is like a massage. Bed is comfortable.
Kitchen had everything we needed for making food as well as fresh beans for coffee and good waffle breakfast.
Music plays in every room as you wish with a tablet so you can choose the vibe.
The local recommendations for food and coffee are fantastic.
Streaming device has options and host makes it easy to connect to hdmi but if you are coming from outside Japan make sure your devices work well ahead of time. I was able to get some classic films working on YouTube after criterion and hbo max failed completely for certain movies (mirroring did not work even if downloaded). Netflix on the host device had a few English subtitle films but most I searched for were not. Hope to visit again in warm weather.

You even... read more get your own private vintage-style cinema room, and every room in the house has its own distinctive design.Kosuke is incredibly kind and helpful. . he genuinely makes sure everything runs smoothly. He even offered us rides and assisted with shipping items, which we really appreciated.The location is perfect, just a short walk from Gotemba Station. It made getting to Fuji-Q Highland, Gotemba Outlet, and other attractions so easy. Despite being close to plenty of late-night food options for our midnight cravings, the house itself is peaceful and quiet.Highly recommend Kosuke’s place , an unforgettable stay 🙂

By far the most unique AirBnB we’ve ever stayed in. We had a car, so this was very conveniently located to do the Hakone tourism circuit and also get close... read more up views of Fuji to the northwest (Lake Kawaguchi). The space itself is a converted retro movie theater with tons of cool related cinema memorabilia. The host has added a great projection/audio setup to the theater itself with lots of streaming options available. The rest of the place has plenty of space and beds, with all the amenities you’d need. It’s located in a lively part of town very close to the train station. The host is also very friendly, helpful, and communicative. If we ever find ourselves in the Hakone region again, we definitely would like to stay here again.

If you're looking for something other than the typical Japanese business hotel, or western chain hotel, this is your place!Very clean and well-appointed, this space is suited for smaller families... read more (like ours) or larger groups. You'll find comfortable beds, great showers and restrooms, and even a washing machine.Watching movies in the "living room" theater, is such a fun bonus, it makes for the perfect stay.The host was so fantastic!

A few steps away from trains and busses, and many places to eat within walking distance, makes this a great location to call home while exploring the area.We had a fantastic stay!
