It was just relaxing from the moment we arrived and Max met us at the train station. He helped us make a decision about what to do, brought us directly to the fairy and took our bags home and suggested places to eat. It was a really lovely time. I would go back anytime. comfortable tatami room in a 70s... More

We had a great overnight stay in Uno Slope House after a visit to Naoshima. Max was very helpful with travel advice over the email at the time of booking that made our travel really easy. Shiori was most welcoming and helped us tremendously with picking our luggage at the station and then picking us after we arrived back at... More

Very convenient for visiting Naoshima (20 min) and Teshima (40 min), and probably other places too, and lots of useful information. Warm welcome (and helpful pick up) at the rail station on arrival and a delicious breakfast in the morning. Uno has a several restaurants and cafes to while away the evening.

Max’s place is a wonderful place to stay as feels like a real home & is great value. If Max isn’t in Japan his friend/caretaker Shiori is a real joy. She made it all just so easy for us as well as being a truly special person. It was also fun to eat at her restaurant and to have breakfast... More

We stayed here when we visited Naoshima and Teshima. It was totally convenient. Shiori was a really friendly and lovely host, and made it no problem to pick us up from Uno Station, drop us off at the ferry the next day, plus a trip to the supermarket. The house itself is really lovely, a genuine traditional Japanese family home.

I stayed for two nights and was the only guest. I was left in the house, once settled in, which suited me perfectly. I have lived in Japan and was comfortable doing my own thing. It was just like the occupants of the house had popped out for a moment. Shiori was back in the morning to make breakfast. I... More

A wonderful base for visiting Naoshima and Teshima Islands and the Inland Sea. Max is a great resource and host. The upstairs room essentially came with a private bathroom since it was right outside our bedroom door and no other rooms shared it. As all report, the breakfast is wonderful - walnut pancakes, wonderful granola from the States and fruit... More

We were very happy with our stay for a couple nights right after new years. Would happily have stayed longer. I'll remember the area well for its beauty, quiet, and friendly people. Staying with Max made the experience all the better. Many other reviewers have well-articulated why Uno (Park) Slope House was great value, comfortable, and memorable. Completely right on.... More

Uno Slope house offered us the warm comfort of a family home. Our genial host, Max, not only picked us up at the railway station but provided two nights of very pleasant accommodation. At breakfast we enjoyed chatting about many topics, including Max's film making and the history of the area where he grew up. He also gave us excellent... More
