Moja House

Moja, the host, was so kind. She is such a bubbly, free spirit. She speaks English amazingly. The home is a traditional Japanese house that has a gorgeous view of the mountains. I hiked shosan-ji with an incoming typhoon that approached landfall faster than expected and made the hike down mountain very slippery. I had my boss(because I didn't realize Moja had such brilliant language skills) call to ask if they offered rides or could recommend a local taxi service in the area. Moja came out to save the day, made a grocery run with me, and let me book another day to wait out the storm.

There is a washer and dryer, a kitchen with small fridge for guests to use, and a bus stop within 5 minutes from the Moja House.

We were greeted by our friendly host Moja. We were exhausted after 2 mountain climbs and so grateful to finally arrive. Quickly had a hot shower and then fed a fabulous Japanese meal with two Taiwanese guests, and our hosts. Moja Ryokan is over 100 years old and it was such a delight to stay here.
