The bathrooms are shared and our room was on the 2nd floor and the men’s restroom and shower were on the 3rd floor up stairs with no handrails. The restaurant does not serve dinner only breakfast for guests and you sleep on futons on the floor and no chair in the room

Only reason why I'm rating this property 3 stars instead of 4 is due to the body odor in the room and the fact that I was unaware of not having a private bathroom prior to booking the room. Other than that, it was a great stay.

The staff was very helpful, and the place was very well kept. The only problem is the bathrooms for the men are on the third floor and for the women on the second floor. For an older man who gets up a lot to use the bathroom, it meant climbing stairs Every time.

Strongly not recomeended

Don't be fool up by the name Ryokan, it's merely a hostel. Shared small shower and toilet. No lift but staircase, be careful if you bring big luggage. Most importantly we paid 32k YEN for 2 persons which can stay much better accomodation in other cities. Think twice before you make reservation with this place.

Very near Nakatsugawa JR station with friendly staff and 7-11 not too far. The corner room I stayed at had no dark curtains though - the room lit up pretty early in the morning. Shared bathroom was alright, as well as common water dispenser and microwave. Free welcome drink is nice!

Good base for Kiso Valley

Good base for a stay of a few days in the Kiso Valley - including for a day walk on part of the Nakasendo trail. Just a short walk from Nakatsugawa JR station. One suggested improvement: Provide inside slippers for tourists with big feet - those provided were impossible given I take a size UK12 shoe!

階段が狭くて、ちょっと急｡大荷物を運ぶのが大変｡というのが唯一の欠点かな～。それ以外は、快適でした。コスパ的にも良いと思います。
