What a Gem of a Hostel

Having run a hostel in the past, I can appreciate the effort that goes into providing a welcome atmosphere and these folks have it down! Excellent location and easy access to tourist bus. These folks even provide complimentary shuttle service to the train/bus stations! Fantastic!

The staff was absolutely wonderful and took the time to show us around everything. They even provided us with a list of transport options and restaurants nearby. They offer a free shuttle service in the morning to the train station, too. The building itself was in great condition too, and the rooms were really nice. The only issue we had was the beds were very, very firm, so it was difficult to sleep on. That being said, if you’re okay with harder mattresses, this is the perfect place for you!

You truly can't get any better than here

Great place in every way. Not a single issue, and everything is labeled in several languages which made using the bidet a bit easier. The biggest thing is how incredible the manager (I think) is: besides being friendly and helpful, when he saw the bags we were gonna carry all the way to the bus station, he just went and drove us there himself. By far the best experience staying anywhere, and if I'm ever back in Japan, I know where I'll be staying. Thank you for serving us during our stay, and I look forward to coming back again some day.

Loved my stay (in the female only dormitory) - the bedroom, shower rooms and toilets were soo clean, very impressive. Did not use the kitchen much, but was not able to find green teas or coffee - maybe I just did not know where to look. Met friendly fellow travellers . Front desk host helped me with my luggage (rooms are upstairs) This place is great, quiet, and located near Hida No Sato - BUT rather far from downtown Takayama. I missed the bus from and to the station… and had to lug my ever heavier roller bag. Better time management would help avoid this problem. Overall, a great place to stay.

6人部屋の女性ドミトリーに一泊しました。 ２名のスタッフの方にお会いしましたが、お二人ともとても気さくで親戚の家に遊びにきたような、そんな感覚を覚えました。ルームは３つあり男女兼用です、台所には一通り料理に必要なものがあり、お茶やコーヒーもいただけます。新しく、綺麗でおしゃれというところではありませんが、とても丁寧に施設を清掃されていたり、維持されているのがわかります。滞在している他のゲストの方も挨拶してくれる、なんだか心温まる場所でした。 一泊だけでしたが、チェックアウトの朝、オーナーさんの庭で採れたミニトマトがテーブルに置いてあり、とても濃くこの夏で一番美味しいトマトでした。
