Most Friendly Host I have met.”
This is the dream for solo travelers. Pongyi has great host and staffs. For its price, definitely worth it. The host would gather everyone and have a good chat to get to know each other, mostly solo travelers. The host even took us to some local restaurant for authentic Japanese food. 10/10. Would recommend.

Nicest host and staffs that I ever met”
Owner and staffs were really nice, helpful, and spoke really good English. I like the activites that the hostel hosted every night (1st night was tea ceremony, 2nd night was folding crane origami with peace message). This hostel is a traditional old kimono house, it made me feel warm and cozy.
I really recommend this hostel to everyone has a chance to go to Kanazawa.

家一樣的民宿”
這間hostel 不像我住開的一樣，因為老闆一家也住在這裡，就是傳統的日式住宅，空間相對小，一楼有4個男生床位，二樓也有4個女生床位，環境非常乾淨優雅，完全感受到老闆對民宿經營的用心。老闆一家包括約10歲的女兒也非常熱情，英語超捧，每晚也有為住客安排的活動，我住上了2晚，安排了燒迷你烟花和茶聚，如果想要體驗日來文化和結交新朋友是不錯的選擇！民宿距離金澤JR 站约5分鐘路程，但google GPS 不是太凖確，帶你不斷繞小路，但位置其實只要出車站後一條直馬路走就到了

很棒的住宿體驗”
賓館離金澤車站大約8-10分鐘的路程，在一條大水溝旁的140年好房子，想要體驗傳統日式建築是個很好的機會
賓館的管理者很細心的介紹設施與注意事項，並且介紹其他住戶與之認識，可以認識來自世界各地的旅人
賓館晚間設計日本的文化體驗，終於知道原來一杯好的抹茶是泡泡多又細！
