JAYS VINTAGE STYLE — Local services in Fujikawaguchiko

Writing a review for their accomodation spot above the store - Attire Labo!

This place is absolutely amazing - even better than the pictures, trust me. It's located after 2 flights of stairs, right in front of the host's shop ‘Jays Vintage Style’.

The location is fantastic, with convenience stores and restaurants nearby and we walked from the Kawaguchiko train station with 2 huge suitcases, which took us about 9 minutes.

There's a lovely terrace outside on the deck before you enter the place, where you can see Mount Fuji perfectly and take great shots. When you walk in, the biggest highlight is the space and the decor. Everything was spotless and the space felt just like a home!

The living room is gorgeous, with beautiful timbers, a vintage table, low seats, and a long wooden seat with cushions. The amenities are top-notch, including a robot vacuum, a washing machine and a separate, spacious toilet and bathroom. The kitchen is amazing, it is spacious and comes fully equipped, and the microwave even plays music when you turn it on! (We’re definitely getting one for our home; we loved everything!) There’s a room downstairs with plenty of space, featuring 2 large single beds that comfortably fit our luggage and a baby cot. It was perfectly dark for our baby to sleep! Upstairs, accessible by narrow stairs, are 4 more beds and a swing with a stunning view of Mount Fuji.

We absolutely adored this place. The host was very friendly and helpful, even offering to carry my bag upstairs, since I was also carrying a baby. Highly recommend it!

Vamos por partes ¿Merece la pena coger una bicicleta para recorrer el lago? Sí, rotundamente sí. Ahora bien, si no cometéis los errores que cometimos nosotros 😅. Ir a la pagoda bien, ir a oshino hakkai no se os ocurra. Hay un desnivel tremendo y tendréis que ir gran parte del camino por ciudad, lo que entorpece la experiencia. Directamente desde la pagoda merece la pena ir hacia el lado y rodearlo (eso si, no a través del túnel) Por otra parte experiencia de la tienda. A ver... Tienen buenos precios. 600 yenes por hora una ebike y 2500 todo el día hasta las 19.00. Para los precios de la zona está bastante competitivos. Ahora bien, perdimos uno de los pedales de la bici (y no dos porque nos dimos cuenta a tiempo) nada más llegar a la pagoda, apenas recorridos 3 km. Tuvimos la suerte de hubo alguien que nos pudo dejar una llave para poder volver a poner el pedal y que no lo perdimos en plena carretera, porque podríamos haber tenido un accidente o haber tenido que volver varios kilómetros con la bicicleta a cuestas. El resto de la bici se veía bien, el asistente eléctrico se nota y mucho y no tuvimos ninguna otra incidencia, pero no puedo puntuarlo mejor. Nos pidió disculpas al llegar a la tienda pero ahí se quedó todo. Fueron amables, eso sí, pero ya está. En cualquier caso, si no hubiera sido por eso, o si nos hubiera ofrecido alguna compensación, la experiencia...

My first time here, they helped us call a taxi and let us go to the roof while we waited. My second time, I bought a keychain, and they gifted my girlfriend and me an acrylic keychain as well. Staff has always been nice and helpful. The store is very cool and nicely decorated. The designs and brands they carry are super cool. 10/10 would...
