hello, im 22 and I just went back from a japan trip. we stayed here with my friend when we were in nagano and i got to say that this was the best place over all the places / hotel we stayed in : the comfort of the room, the equipment in the room, the warm welcome of this lovely japanese couple. they were just so cute with us. they gave us info about all you can do around and in the city. They helped us organizing our hike in the nagano montains with info such as bus timing and what was the best hike depending on our request (long walk or not, if we wanted to see a lake or more forest). the husband is a ski instructor so he knows pretty much every mountains around. He even took us to the bus station with his own car 2 days in a raw 🥹. Summer or winter, either you are in couple or with a friend, i highly recommend this place if you want to get hit by the japanese sweeteness ✨Washizawa tachi onto arigato 🙏Nathan and Tom

The inn is located between Zenkoji Temple and the old Matsushiro Castle Town, so it was easy to get to both places.Also, although I could only stay overnight without meals, there were several restaurants and supermarkets nearby, so I didn't have any problems at all.When I was having trouble deciding where to go, I was really grateful that I could talk to the owner couple and they would tell me about various places and plans.

The friendliest and most accommodating hosts we had throughout our entire trip to Japan. The rooms were clean and lacked nothing. There was also a small bathtub where you could warm up after a winter day. There are many shopping options nearby. You can reach the city center by bus in 20 minutes. We highly recommend this accommodation.

Wonderful hospitality by the couple, especially the lady who was very friendly. You may be astounded by the modern Japanese architecture of this accommodation. I used a car and there was parking available. The lady went above and beyond in showing me around and giving advice!

Wonderful ‘home stay style’ four room hotel/bed and breakfast. Delightful hosts who go out of their way to make you feel welcome. It reminded me of staying with my grandmother when I was a young girl. Our every need was met and exceeded. The best food in Japan. Fresh local fruits and fantastic homemade breakfast soups. They accommodated my gluten free needs and we communicated well despite our Japanese that was limited to about three words, thanks to their English and enthusiasm. Beautiful new warm Japanese home with some antique sliding doors. Lovely woodwork and all kept spotlessly clean. A kitchen shared with the other guests and beautiful ensuite rooms with comfortable beds and Japanese ‘hot tubs’ for one. Bathe like a ‘snow monkey’ they explained. The location gives the opportunity to see Japanese life as the kids pass by in the mornings walking or biking to school and the local farms provide fresh produce. There’s convenient off street parking or a short walk to the bus into Nagano Station. The lovely hosts will help you with your transportation questions and needs. Stay here. It will be a highlight of your Japanese vacation.

Nothing more than amazing! The hosts, the location, the area that is Nagano. We absolutely fell in love with this place and Nagano! The hosts are one-of-a-kind amazing! And the quality of everything, from the rooms, the service, the water bottle, the small breakfast is superb! Run by a wife and husband that we would love to call family, it is nothing more than a 100% recommendation if you are in the area or make a detour please! Because for Nagano I can only say: visit it! We ate delicious unique oyaki at Oyaki Farm around the corner (recommend doing the Tour, recommend to make a detour to eat it), visited the amazing Shrines of Togakushi Okusha and drank amazing coffee (plus drip bags) at 戸隠珈琲豆焙煎工房「き楽珈琲」and ate delicious Katsudon at Meijitei (and bought the sauce). We stayed for 2 days, but it made our whole travelling complete. Next time we will stay longer to find our rest, so we will for sure be back. Please visit this place. Although the location needs some traveling to reach it, it is doable! We got out of Shinoi Station and took a cab for 12 mins (costs 2400 JPY). Alternatively you can take a bus from Nagano station, but it is a local bus and takes 35 minutes (costs 480 JPY). Keep in mind you can only pay buy cash and there is no refund as is how the Japanese bus works. A good pdf can be found online on how to use a Japanese local bus ;) (get a ticket at entry, and pay when exiting but throwing your ticket and money in a box :P)

Stayed at Nagano for 3 nights, and it was the best stay of our 14 day travel.The retired couple that ran the place was so friendly and hospitable it made us want to call them our godparents <3Place was quiet and peaceful, just a minute walk to A Coop, their supermarket and it was perfect for those that wants to enjoy cooking or heating up great homestyle Japanese food.Every morning they will serve a simple fruit, soup and coffee/tea breakfast and it just warms you up to the core. Everything is prepared in-house (literally) by "godmother" and the food is just OISHII 🥰10/10 will return again to Nagano just to stay in this peaceful, outside-of-town inn for a recharge from the bustling cities we are from.

I used it after visiting Togakushi Shrine in August.My tired body was soothed by the welcome drink, homemade dessert, and the stories and hospitality of the owner and his wife.The room was very clean and the bathroom and toilet were separated, making it easy to use and comfortable.It was like a trip looking for buckwheat flour all the way from Fukui, and with the help of my wife's information, I was able to come across a very delicious soba restaurant.Buckwheat flour was also requested and I was very pleased with it.Genghis Khan is also famous, so I was very happy to be able to get some Suffolk lamb at the roadside station in Shinshu Shinmachi, which I thought could only be eaten in Hokkaido.I received the Nagano sweet ``Saraband'' as an emergency ration (lol) on my way home from a typhoon.This was my favorite sweet when I was a child, and I was very impressed that it was a Nagano sweet. I will buy in bulk the next time I visit Nagano (lol)It was a very nice inn where the personality of the owner really shined through.I would like to visit again.thank you very much.
