    Nothing. Everything was perfect.

    We enjoyed the dinner and breakfast (for a small top-up). The views of the mountains were great. The house was very warm and cozy. The hosts also did a great job with serving their guests and ensuring that we were comfortable during our stay. We also really appreciate the transport service to and from Nagiso Station. The house also has an adorable cat.

    Country living old Japan style - a wonderful experience

    Very little was a problem but I can see that only having one shower / bath might cause problems if there were more guests.

    Arrived on foot after a day of walking in the rain. We were made comfortable - wet clothes hung up, hot drinks provided. A decent if simple dinner of curry (good to have the 2 size options). Lovely tatami mat bedroom, but nice to have some sofas and chairs to sit on as wimpy westerners! Lovely atmosphere inside watching the rain beating down on the countryside outside. I could have settled in for several days! We were concerned that it was a little way from Nagiso town/station, but the lift provided solved that and the glorious countryside around was super - the view from the small kitchen balcony in the morning when the sun had come out again was lovely.

    Wonderful stay, located on the Nakasendo Trail. You should stay at least two nights for exploring the area and other parts of the Nakasendo trail. Rey gave is great tips what to do. Easy to go there by train, because they have got a free shuttle service. Thank you for everything!
