“Great location and affordable base for exploring Shirakawa-go. The hosts provided helpful information on which restaurants were open, and we ended up at a lovely local izakaya in a traditional gassho house - delicious food and wonderful atmosphere! There was also plenty of useful information about Shirakawa-go at the accommodation, which was very handy.”
“The dorm looks so much better than in the photos and the bed is so comfy! They even give you an extra fluffy blanket for the cold (which you don't need because of the amazing heat pump).
Sada-san and his wife are amazing hosts. They anseered all of our questions and even drank spme.sake with us. I hghly rexommend this hostel for any solo traveller.”
“Everything, really!! Perfect location opposite bus station and short walk to thatched houses area. Lovely view at back overlooking river. Family who run it are incredibly gracious and friendly. The couple wrote to invite us to check in early at 12.30 and offered us a free tour with their father! The food was unbelievably top notch. Wine/alcohol matching if you wanted. Everything had been foraged in the mountains or hunted by a family member, or prepared from first principles eg miso. All exquisitely presented and served in a beautiful room. We had a bedroom with bathroom facilities but there was an onsen-type bathroom for those who didn’t. Just perfect!!👌 watch your head though as building is old and door frames and beams very low!”
