Exterior color decided on.
Finally, we decided on the exterior color. On the picture above, the second left is the one we chose. It took such a long time that I almost thought we'd never come to any conclusion and have to start with the unpainted building.
The only thing worrying me a bit now is if we can finish the painting work during the coming rainy season. We'll see.
Everything else is going well. Walking through the whole building, from the basement to the roof, I thanked its great location and big windows. All the rooms have a lot of sunshine and fresh air coming in. I was excited to imagine our first guests coming in to the furnished rooms and enjoying our hostel smelling "new."
Only two more months to the grand opening. Time flies.
Well, I'm not the only one working for the hostel, by the way. I have colleagues. Hiromi, one of my helpful colleagues, will write here pretty soon.
Comment
Hi Tomo: I stayed with you in December of 2006. I really enjoyed my stay and chatting with you outside of the hostel about bicycles.
You said (I was excited to imagine our first guests coming in to the furnished rooms and enjoying our hostel smelling "new.") It still smelled new while I was there for my stay. I m sure when I return that Sakura Hostle will still be very clean even if the new smell is gone.
