The owner couple were interesting people.I stayed alone, but I think it would be more interesting if you stayed with a large group.There were also plenty of books.

This school apparently started as a private lodging in Otoyo Town Kawaguchi Elementary School, which was closed in 2006.You can rent a barbecue set for 2,000 yen, but I forgot to tell them about it, so they had it prepared in a hurry. thank you.The school is built on a small hill and seems to have a history of 126 years.It's quite cool that there is a history of over 100 years in a mountain like this.I went there in the summer, and I could hear the chirping crows and was able to enjoy the wonderful nature of Satoyama.I think the children had fun drawing on the blackboard and running around the schoolyard.Hotels are nice, but wouldn't it be nice to stay overnight like this once in a while?

A wonderful place to spend the night. The owner is super nice and the location beautiful. It's rare that you get to spend the night in a school and it was a fun experience! I'll come again!

So long story short: they refused to give us a stay, despite that we had made a reservation by phonecall!! Guys just stay away from this hotel!We arrived at 3:00 pm at the Hotel. The guy there told us the price and that he knows we have a reservation but he needs to clean the room first. So we waited in front of the Hotel. After 30 min he came back and told us that we cannot stay at the hotel! (Don‘t know why, maybe he had no fresh linen or maybe some racist purpose? I really don‘t know)We arrived by bicycle so we had no other option to stay somewhere. We had to ride further for more than 30 km (after a lokg bicycle day) for the next hotel. Even the guy from the hotel had no further informations for us!Totally dissapointed!! Stay away from this place!!
