Other things to note
(Notes on use) This facility is a simple lodging in a steel-frame apartment building where ordinary people live, so it is not a structure with a focus on soundproofing like a hotel, and there is noise from the next room and the floors above and below. As this is Kyushu, insects such as cockroaches may appear seasonally. We use deodorant, but the odor may not be completely removed. Smoking is not allowed for the benefit of non-smokers, but for safety reasons. Please note that this is mainly for long-term stays by foreigners, so the rooms are furnished and equipped with appliances like rental apartments. There are no hotel specifications or services. Simultaneous use of electrical appliances that consume a lot of electricity may cause the breaker to switch off. In that case, turning the breaker switch back on will restore power. Check-in time is 16: 00. Please keep in mind that we do not check in and store luggage before 16:00. Regarding the use of the parking lot, this facility is located in the "School Zone" area adjacent to an elementary school, and vehicles are not allowed on the surrounding roads from 7:30 am to 8:30 am (excluding weekends and holidays). If you are a long-term resident and use the surrounding roads during this time, you must apply for a traffic permit at the police station. Please message for details. Profile verification by Airbnb is required for use. If you have not completed this, we will decline your reservation request. We have obtained official permission from the local government as a "Simple Lodging Business," and unlike regular hotels and inns, we do not have a front desk, so we ask you to provide the guest list information stipulated in Article 6 of the Hotel Business Act (Act No. 138 of 1948) at least 5 days before check-in. For foreigners who do not have a residence in Japan, we will require copies of all guests' passports. Please note that if we do not receive the above guest list information, we may decline the stay. A security camera is installed at the entrance of the building.

My work: BandS KUMAMOTO
I spend too much time: Band music
Hello, my name is Ken. After the earthquake in 2016 here in Kumamoto, there has been a shortage of accommodation and rising prices, which encouraged me to start hosting with Airbnb in order to welcome more visitors and offer affordable place to stay. I myself now use Airbnb accommodation whilst traveling to live like locals! You may just come back to sleep in a pricy hotel, instead, why not to experience more and enjoy the taste of local delicacies…. in Kumamoto, my city. I like 80's pops. Daryl Hall & John Oates, Prince, Bee Gees, Miami Sound Machine, Michael Jackson, Madonna, sade, Cyndi Lauper, The Police, Stevie Wonder, I am performing with these cover bands. 熊本では大きな震災以降､宿泊費が高騰していると聞きairbnbのﾎｽﾄを始めました。 自分自身もこの数年､旅行時にはaitbnbを使っています。 旅行中のわずかな時間｢寝るだけ｣のことに高いお金を使うより､美味しい食事や､旅でしか味わえない体験があると思います。 そんなことに､私の地元でお金を使って欲しいな･･･と思っています。
