Guesthouse RICO

Super cozy vibe, with dinner options in the Café best fries i have had in a long time, if not even ever. But also a separate kitchen shower and toilet in the room. Its very spacious and the beds are fully covered in a curtain. They provide information and a luggage "locker" where you can lock them with a bicycle lock until you leave after check out. There is also a cute Bird that "manages" the cafe. I cam totally recommend it. It is located between both stations and close to the castle by foot.

Good place

One of my favourite hostels, I miss it!!

Everyone was really nice. Thank you!

Wow what an excellent hostel! Absolutely exceeded expectations. Cute, clean, trendy, and locals even hang out in the restaurant/bar!

The only place to stay in Wakayama! Wish we coulda stayed more than one night :)

It was amazing there! The people were really nice and helpful. From the moment I arrived, I felt comfortable and safe.

A great place to stay in Wakayama. I've been there the first day of my first trip to Japan and I felt easy. Thanks to all the staff.

Amazing facilities and amazing staff member! It's a pity we are only staying for one night. Their shower only open till 11pm, but we went to a nearby sento (440 yen) and it was great experience!

Happy 9th anniversary and many thanks for the sweets. Please, say ちゅんちゅん to きんたろう. Cheers!

Such a beautiful place and kind staff! The homemade cheesecake was delicious.

Honestly went to Wakayama city because this looked like a cool hostel (do I have too much time on my hands? Maybe!) but I was not disappointed. This little town was one of my highlights in Japan. Couldn’t recommend this hostel enough!

Loved the vibe downstairs, they had good cheesecake and the staff recommended some great beer. Felt a bit “hipster” which was kind of a turn off if that makes any sense. Overall really good but maybe just not my vibe totally. The bathhouse across the street was AWESOME and they don’t care about tattoos.

Mit sehr viel Liebe und Geschmack eingerichtet. Und sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Beim check-in habe ich eine Karte der umgebung gekriegt mit ihren Empfehlungen. In der Nähe hat es super leckere Cafés und Restaurants und ein öffentliches Bad.

Honestly ideal hostel. Chill, spacious, everything you want and need, bike parking garage, very friendly staff and guests, and cheap!

Truly one of the best hostels I've stayed at. Excellent atmosphere, awesome bar/cafe in front that lots of locals go to, and run by some great people. I don't normally leave reviews but I highly recommend staying here.

This is such a wonderful hidden gem! Rooms are spacious and super comfortable, they have beautiful coworking space and rooftop! I wish I could stayed there longer! One of best hostels I ever been! Also the people working there are kind, welcoming and extremely warm
