The hostel is near the train and bus station and has private rooms and dormitories. There's a communal kitchen and lounge and if you stay for three or more nights you may use the washing machine for free. …

They were super charming. The location is great and the common spaces are cool. Very clean rooms. Perhaps the bathroom could be a little more spacious and be a shower tray instead of a bathtub but the truth is that it is 100% recommended.

We stayed in a triple with a private bath. Towels and bedding were provided. The location is great, close to the bus/train station and within walking distance to the sites. The staff was super kind and helpful and the place has a community/traveler vibe. There is a shared living room, dining room and kitchen where you can have a cup of tea and chat with others. I traveled with my kids and felt safe and welcome.

Great hostel and the people working there super helpful! I was travelling solo and i had a great time for a few days in Takayama.The train ride is also stunning!I highly recommend this place and taking day activities to near villages/hikes areas. I went to Kamikochi to hike and see monkeys (1.30hs ride one way), visited a natural onsen in Hirayu and to the folks village (10 mins bus) In the evenings the city center is quiet and empty but no problem as you will be tired from the excursions and looking forward to see your bed 😀 and loved the hida beef!!!
