Stayed in KURA room type for 3 nights this time(1) It can be reached within a 10-minute walk from Matsumoto Station. There is a 7-11 diagonally opposite. It is not too far to walk to Matsumoto Castle. There are supermarkets at Matsumoto Station and the bus station opposite where you can buy fruits.(2) It is very quiet at night, and the small kitchen supplies are quite complete. The important thing is that the contents of each drawer are clearly marked, which shows the care of the owner. He also responds to emails very quickly.(3) A small drawback is that there were mosquitoes on the second night, but the owner also provided electric mosquito coils

It was easily accessible from the city and perfect for a stay of about 5 people! We also had fun playing the game of life and playing cards. There was an air conditioner, humidifier, and refrigerator, so I was able to spend a fulfilling time without any inconvenience. thank you!

The house is really clean and beautiful. Maximum stay of 6 people. There is a kitchen and cozy living room. The homeowner also prepared a deck of cards for entertainment. The bathroom is equipped with a washing machine, prepared with brushes, towels and washcloths. Bedrooms are equipped with beds, blankets, sheets, pillows, and mattresses. TV in smart TV home.Actually, my group of friends and I really like this house. The price is too cheap when hiring a large number of people. The house is near Matsumoto station, around many shops and combinis.The only downside is that there is only 1 parking space and it's a bit small (only for Kei cars). However, there are many parking lots around the house so it is easy to find a parking space.I highly recommend everyone to stay here, from here it takes about 1 hour to drive to Kamikochi. There are many other tourist attractions nearby such as Matsumoto Castle (one of the 3 oldest castles in Japan)In general, I am very satisfied with the service here. If I have a chance I will definitely come back.

It was very convenient as it was close to the station and had a parking lot. The inside of the hotel is also clean and spacious. In addition, it's surprisingly cheap, so it's the best value for money.

Super awesome experience! Check in a bit late 10pm due to some road troubles, but the host waited and gave guidance patiently. Super completed amenities provide, kitchen utensils, and also worth the price. 10 min walk from Matsumoto Castle.

My first experience with a half-bow in my life. I am satisfied with my progress in improving each time I go. 😊I recommend it because you can go and hit it easily. 🏹I would also like to use the guesthouse if I have the opportunity. 😇
