The property is around 3.9 km from The Japan Ukiyo-e Museum, 29 km from Canora Hall and 600 metres from Matsumoto Castle. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen, and luggage storage for guests. My stay at this hostel was wonderful. It’s beautiful and cozy, combining traditional Japanese decor with modern functionality. The staff genuinely care about making guests feel comfortable and ensuring they have everything they need. For me, the shared space is important, and it was very nice here – though perhaps a few more board games would be a great addition. The dormitory room was fantastic, with big, soft mattresses. I definitely recommend it!
