In my limited experience, this is the best hostel I've stayed in. Like what one of the guests said, it has everything that will make any traveler's stay very comfortable. The owner runs the place himself and is very accommodating.

This is one of my favorite hostels I have ever been to. I felt very comfortable hanging out in the common area and the other guests and host were so nice. I definitely want to come back and stay for more than one night. If you are in Matsumoto I highly recommend this location.

Best hostel in Japan!
Excellent hostel in best location. The bedding is superbly comfortable, and the 4-bed family room with sleeping platforms was spacious and quiet. The showers are large. The kitchen is very well appointed, with a range of appliances as well as complimentary tea and real coffee. First rate hospitality from the host. I absolutely recommend this hostel.

ファミリールームは広くて、寝具もフワフワ。 部屋もすぐに暖かくなり、大変快適に過ごせました! 共有スペースも過ごしやすく、食器なども充実していて、コーヒーや紅茶も楽しませていただきました。 銭湯へ持っていけるシャンプーとボディーソープのセットもとても助かりました。 ありがとうございました!
