The room and shared area are clean. The staff are really nice. Love the scene from both my room and the balcony. The location of this hotel is far from the train station. From the Kamakura train station, you need to take a bus and walk around 5 to 10 mins, across a quiet residence area to it. It's kind of scary in the night. However, I believe that it's safe in Kamakura. I don't think it's a downside to this hotel.

For self check-in, the staff asked me to call them for more information. However, like must of foreign visitors, I don't have a local phone number. I think they need a process to lead visitors via mail/message instead of phone call.

The breakfasts! We thought we had made reservations at a hotel but this place is a B&B. Your fee includes a complete traditional Japanese mulicourse meal that is beautiful, delicious and filling. The view!!! The view from the upper bunk (queensize) bed is the ocean and a palm tree.) You can't beat that. There is a very busy road between you and the sea, but you gain beach access by walking east to an underpass. The staff!!! These ladies are so kind and they keep the place spotlessly clean. We stayed 4 days and felt completely at home. Two shared modern shower rooms, two sinks and washer/dryer and one or two shared toilets for 5 guestrooms. It works. Bear in mind the rooms are tiny, with the loft bed taking up almost all the room. A twin mattress, TV, small table and fridge are below the larger bed. You have a four by four foot space to stand up in. If you can't do stairs this bedroom is not for you, but at least come for breakfast and the view from the terrace. Take a cab to find it, about 1100 yen from the station. There is a local bus you can catch from the north side of the street across from the Create store. When we did not have luggage we walked to town. It's not a bad walk. Would gladly return, and highly recommend.

The tight quarters. But no loft = no view and the view is worth it. Surprisingly, the shared facilities did not bother me. All was impeccably clean and the showers are high end.

location was excellent right by the beach with great food options there and next door. really enjoyed using the products in the shower my hair felt amazing after and i loved the skin care products too . staff are very nice and made me feel very welcomed. it was my first time solo traveling so i was really shy but i enjoyed my stay there alot. The beds are very comfortable and it was so beauitful waking up to that view. the rooms are not big but perfect for solo travel or a couple i thought it was a great price for the location.

Only thing i didnt like is the toilets are right next to the kitchen so a privacy curtain would make the stay more comfortable.

The cutest tiny loft with the most comfortable mattress and the view of the entire beach, super cosy and cute. Certainly a 'backpackers' but super clean, very welcoming, safe and perfect location. Take note if you are tall or large you may feel cramped but it's just "Japanese small" - Loved the included breakfast and the deck was great for sunset too. Could walk from the Train to check in, and the staff were happy to call us a taxi for dinner reservations. The street noise is 'street noise' but we only noticed it during the day, overnight the main road was quiet. Would be great for surfers, just not sure of storage for your boards as rooms so small! The shared bathrooms were super clean, and all bathroom items like toothbrush, toothpaste etc provided. Loved the stay here! Perfect for couples.

Great location across from the beach and a reasonable walk to a drugstore with groceries and a convenience store. Room split AC system. Daily included breakfast is above average and sized just right, and other available meals are also very good. Nearby bus stops for transportation to either Kamakura or Zushi train stations.

Indoor common spaces are limited to 2 large tables with seating for 8 to 10 persons and several bar stools. Generally fine, but expect congestion with other guests in inclement weather when sitting on the expansive outside terrace is not a viable option.

What an amazing little place. Good Morning Zaimokuza is right on the beach with some rooms that have a view of it directly from your bed. The rooms are small, but very comfortable and have everything you need. The shower rooms and toilets are clean. My favourite part was the staff and complimentary breakfast. The staff are extremely friendly, and you can tell they are genuinely proud of their place. The free breakfast is traditional Japanese style, and very delicious. I will stay here from now on.

The staff was really nice, and while the room was quite small, the bed was comfortable. The beach is just across the street. We asked for a vegetarian breakfast at the last moment and received a nice meal where only one item (fish) was removed..

Opening the luggage was a little awkward, but that is expected. This is not so much related to the room, but I wanted to go for a swim. However, the beach here is really shallow, and the water is full of, well, everything.

I came as a solo female traveller. With 1 large hiking bag pack and a smaller day pack. 1.53m tall. Cleanliness - very clean! Considering I am quite particular about cleanliness, I was not expecting too much given the shared shower and washroom area, but the staff clean the place daily and there is a washing machine and dryer with detergent and softener provided! There are 2 showers so there was no queue for the bath times. Staff - super friendly and helpful, some of the ladies speak English as well (I think it is an all female staff group as I did not notice any male staff when I was there). Being a solo female traveller I felt safe in this area and will strongly recommend this place for solo female guests. Room - I took the room 'A' closest to the dining area and common sink /toilet. I was expecting it to be every noisy but the staff close the dinning area by 8pm and it is quiet after that. I am a deep sleeper so I can sleep through most noise and had a restful sleep- was very surprised that the windows have double glaze as well , it was exceptionally quiet given that the accommodation is right in front of the main road with big trucks or vans going by. I am a big fan of morning views by the sea and the window from the room gave me just that! Breakfast was also very good and nutritious! Shower - Standing shower (usual shower head and additional rain shower option) with nice natural hair shampoo conditioner body wash facial cleanser provided. There is a basket of clean floor mats for use everytime you shower which you can put in the laundry basket outside immediately after. Very hygienic. Overall for the price I will definitely come back here again! 11/10 stars. Wifi works well.

Nothing Place was perfect for my specific travel needs. However, if you are much taller, and coming with many suitc ases/luggage, you might find the space in a room A too small/limited.

The staff were absolutely lovely. Very helpful. Breakfast was nice. The bed was comfortable. On the seafront and about a 20 min walk away from Kamakura station. Shared toilet which was separated from the shared shower. There were about 8 rooms in my area, I believe there are two areas but they are completely separate from one another, each area has different bathrooms and toilets and sinks. In my area there were two toilets, two sinks, two nicely sized and good shower rooms. I was very pleasantly surprised by this. Laundry machines available. Towels provided as well as a bottle of water which I thought was lovely. If I'm ever back in Kamakura I'll definitely think of staying here again.

There wasn't a tremendous amount to move around in the room, but I've got a lot of luggage with me so take that into consideration. I guess 20 minutes away from the station but I loved walking through Kamakura so it wasn't a huge issue for me.

Honestly there is little to no words on how good this place was. Location is a little hard if you don’t like walking but definitely manageable. A good 10-15 minute walk to the train station. The rooms are definitely small however, sleeping is your only priority when in Kamakura. The view in the morning crazy, at night incredible and at sunset unimaginable. Breakfast I heard was good but I missed it. Definitely recommend if staying in Kamakura.
