“NOT for allergic people”
The photos look nice. DUST. Our room (303) was full of dust, but we didn’t notice it when we walked in. Only when we touched the bed, towels, and curtains did the dust immediately rise into the air, making it impossible to breathe (I got an allergy from the dust, by the way). We tried keeping the door and window open for a few minutes—no help. The online photos of Ohana’s rooms appear cute and clean, but they can’t show the dust level in the air. We tried using a fan (which brought mold inside) on the wall, but the fan made the situation worse: the room became even dustier, especially since the air was already dry. We saw so much dust in the air, I was sneezing all the time and my eyes were full of tears. The only way to cope was to wait outside until the dust settled, then we could carefully enter and try to sleep. It felt like no one had cleaned our room (303) before—“no visitors, no need to clean.” We felt like we opened a tomb that had been locked for years. During all three days we stayed, we never saw a cleaner. Other guests’ rooms, who had checked out, stayed with doors open for days. I didn’t even mention the toilet in the kitchen—just a few steps away, not in another room. During cooking on the stove, you can just open the door and do your thing. At least, thanks for a door. I can’t understand all the positive reviews online. We tried many hostels and guesthouses on our first trip to Japan. Unfortunately, this one is far from the best. The only positive thing about Ohana is its look. The hotel and rooms look really cute, but only if you view them from a distance, especially if you have a dust allergy. So sorry, Ohana.
