I came with little expectations, but was really pleased with this hotel. The outdoor onsen is really nice. The corridor is a bit noisy when someone walks by. Some dust and spider webs in the top shelfs but nothing really bad

Bellissima struttura, ampia stanza tradizionale con tatami. Onsen a disposizione (due zone distinte per uomini e donne). Cena e colazione tipiche eccezionali. Bagni pulitissimi e comodi

古くても細部にまで心配りをされてます。共用トイレ、洗面ですがとても綺麗です。匂いもなく、ペーパータオルもあり、古い施設の個室バスルームより良いです。洗面化粧台にはLEDライトが鏡の周囲についていて女性のお化粧に気を遣ってるようですし、ドライヤーが1階に備えてあるが客室が近い２階の洗面台には備えてないのは騒音にならぬようかなと。食事は手料理で温かいものが提供されます。冷めた天ぷらなどはなく、小さい宿だからこそのサービスだと思います。メニューは多彩、量もしっかり。朝食のお粥はうれしかったです。家族経営の限界はあるものの一所懸命されてらっしゃるから、嫌な気持ちになりません。チェックアウトするとき早く出られた部屋のドアを全開にされていて、陽の入る窓に向けて座椅子を並べてるのが垣間見えました。お風呂のお湯も良かったです。

娘、孫の3世代で2泊利用させて頂きました。 上高地を始め長野の観光するにはとても良いところにあって、都内は猛暑日なのに、エアコン要らずの立地でした！ 老朽化は否めませんが、気にならない位の手入れが行き届いて、インテリアが素敵でした。

施設も清潔で趣もあって良かったし、スタッフの方もとっても感じ良かったので満足しました。 しかし、3組しか泊まっていないのに、3室隣り合わせで入れられてしまったのが残念でした。 一つおきにするとかしてもらえたら良かったなぁ。
