I-link Hostel ＆ Cafe Shimanami

The absolute best place to say while biking the Shinamani Kaido! We stayed here for 1 night to split up the bike route and it was spotless (cleaner than a lot of hotels we've been at), staff were so friendly, and accomodations were amazing! (PJs, water, towels, soaps, razors). Absolutely stay here if you can!

This is a great bike hostel. It’s a hostel so you should expect all things that come with hostel life… with this in mind this place was amazing. Food was delicious. Room/bed area was comfortable and extremely clean. Bathroom/shower area were also super clean. Lastly location is perfect when biking.

This hostel was literally spotless; the showers, toilets, rooms were immaculate. They provided free PJs and amenties. I stayed in the bunk bed setup with my partner and it was lovely. There are two curtain-like screens that divide your room from the hall. However, I can't comment on sound isolation because we basically had the entire hostel to ourselves as we went during the off season of rainy June. The dinner (Nami course) was amazing and it was quite a bit of food which I appreciated after a day of cycling. Also, there was a Family Mart across the street, which was very convenient!

Don 't let the word 'Hostel ' put you off. Spotlessly clean hotel aimed at cyclists with excellent Japense food presented with a English menu. Plenty of lockers and access to a Safe. When their cafe is closed you can pop across the road to the Family Mart.

Really nice place for cyclists and worth stopping for food or stay overnight to break up journey on the route
