Very old. Mediocre cleanliness. Awkward trying to communicate with the owner/host. It was our least favorite place we stayed with in Japan. Should have been much cheaper considering the quality of the accomodations.

10/10 Exceptional

It's a beautiful Showa Era Ryokan that's over 70 years old. There is a 200 yen accommodation tax when checking in (this tax applies for all accommodations in Fukuoka), which I happily paid for as I want to support sustainable tourism). You leave your shoes at the main entrance and use slippers throughout the Ryokan. You are provided a toothbrush, yukata, and a prepared tea set that you can pour hot water in immediately to consume. I believe I met the owner's father, who checked me in. He was incredibly patient, introduced me to my room (which was clean and tidy), set up my bedding, and guided me to where the facilities were while explaining in Japanese with some English translations. The amenities are a little outdated, but in exchange-- the accommodation is affordable and breakfast is an available option. The walls are also a little thin-- so you will hear some noise from the outside, this did not bother me though as the area was quiet during the night. The check-out time is 10AM and I easily did so by leaving my room key in the basket at the main entrance. In summary, the Yamamoto Ryokan is an affordably wonderful and historic place to spend your nights. They have an instagram: @yamamotoryokan and a cute Shiba Inu dog named; Charmie. I sadly didn't get to meet the dog but heard them barking in the morning.

Nice place in the middle of the city
This place was perfect for my trip with my brother. The futons were comfortable and the room was clean. The tv only had 5-6 channels, but this didn't matter because we didn't spend much time in the room. Each room has a hardline internet connection, which allowed us to watch movies and there is wireless in the lobby. The showers/family baths were clean and so were the bathrooms. This is the perfect place to stay if you want to travel around the area and don't plan on spending much time in the room.

This is an older traditional hotel. We stayed in a family tatami room which was comfortable for sleeping and watching TV. The toilets were down the hall and the bath was quite a bit further. They charge extra for towels. It was hard to find anyone from the hotel most of the time. It's a 10 minute walk from the JR station and 10 minute walk to the Nakasu District and Canal City so the location is pretty good.

My first real ryokan
The smell of dogs in the entrance wasn't a good sign, although it didn't persist past the entrance area. The room itself smelt damp, although it was clean as were the toilets/washing areas etc. I asked about breakfast but was told that it wasn't available. The person I took to be the proprietor and his wife tried to be helpful, but the language barrier was too great. I will need to try another Ryokan before I know how this one rates.

Traditional feel.
The property is in a good location, close to the station and major attractions. Traditional tatami room and a family bath. Shared toilet was not a problem. Staff welcoming and helpful.

Room smell of dog pee, not worth the price
the worst night I've ever had in Japan for such high price, definitely not worth it. For Japan standards this is very bad. Even the bedding had stairs on them.

Rubbish
Utter rubbish for the price paid. Have had far far better for half the price. It's the kind of place back packers would look for when on a very tight budget except that their budget wouldn't come close to this!

Rustic Ryokan, The Yamamoto for Funky Travelers
The Yamamoto Ryokan was about a six minute walk from Hakata Station. Up the road a bit from Nakusa party area. The place is definitely family owned and operated. Rooms are small and basic and the bath is family style and shared down on the first floor. Great location and easy enough for a very low priced 6000 Yen to have my own tatami room with TV. It is on the rustic side and quite clean and comfy. I recommend it for business, backpackers and travelers who like to be out and about.

Genuine Japanese Ryokan in the city centre.
We, three adults, stayed in Fukuoko City for two nights at the end of a 10 day trip in Kyushu. Having dropped our rental car and heavy luggage at the airport, it was easy to find our way to the Ryokan by subway. We found the hotel quite charming. The welcome, the room and the facilities were just great for us. We appreciated the shared kitchen area as well as the shared family bath, and our room was comfortable and quiet. I would encourage anyone with an interest in experiencing genuine Japanese culture to stay at Ryokan Yamamoto.

True Japanese type experience
This is not for those looking for plush amenities, but it is great for those wanting a more realistic Japanese experience. Bathing facilities are family style baths( lots of hot water and able to streach ou and really relax after a hard day), restrooms down the hall. order breakfast the night before, rice, soup, egg, fish, meat, pickles, seaweed and nato ,when I was there. Rice and soup were hot every thing else was cold. There was also a raw egg incase you wanted to make Japanese egg rice. good tatami floors, comfortable futons to sleep on. Easy walking to Canal city (major shopping mall), Nakasu entertainment district and Kawabata dori (covered shopping street). comfortable walk to Hakata station (transport and shopping. Close to two major streets for bus travel and one on the subway if you don't want to walk. I did miss not having a refrigerator in the room, but will stay there again. If you are over 5'10" watch your head, there are a few low ceilings.

Combination of old and new
Ryokan is located in great place. It seemed to me like an old place which was partially upgraded - all the toilets are new ones western style with buttons, very clean. Person who met us did't speak English or even speak a lot at all. But on initial check-in he showed us around - where were showers, toilets, etc. and it was important, since building has 2 floors and to some places, you have to find a unique route, since often I found myself getting into places I shouldn't be. Some objects I previously took for granted, like freezer and hair drier have to be searched for too. This place is okay, but wouldn't recommend for long stays. My girlfriend disliked it though, because toilets and showers are shared, so it's not for everyone.

그다지 좋지는 않음
이 숙소의 장점은 저렴한 가격에 역 근처의 숙소를 이용할 수 있다는 것이고 그 외에는 전부 단점이라고 볼 수 있다. 방에 들어갔을 때도 머리카락이 떨어져 있어서 청결도 면에서는 불합격이라고 볼 수 있고 공용 목욕탕도 1970년대의 느낌을 연상케하는 시설이다. 다만 여관 주인이나 스태프는 친절한 편이고 일찍 와서도 짐을 맡기고 돌아다닐 수는 있다. 참고로 가을에만 와도 밤에 잘 때 추워서 얼어죽을 수 있으니 추운 시기에는 피하는 것이 좋다. 실질적으로 그다지 추천하지는 않으나 정말 역 근처에 저렴한 숙소를 원한다면 하루정도는 머물만하다.

매번 후쿠오카 올때마다 이용합니다. 가격 좋고 위치가 너무 좋아서 후쿠오카 타워도 한번에 가는버스도 있고 택시타고 콜비 포함 2300엔이면 공항까지도 갈 수 있어서 좋습니자. 다만 샤워시설이 적어서 불편하실 수 있는 점 참고하시면 좋겠습니다.
