Perfect. Perfect. Perfect. Spent our last night in Japan after a week of travelling. Had no issues finding the place, just use Google Maps. The mountains views from the property were amazing. We were lucky enough to have snow set in after we had checked in. The space was cozy and warm, the bedding so clean and comfortable. We took our own food from 7/11 because we wanted simple meal but could easily have cooked a full meal as they have microwave, oven and BBQ ect. The owner was so kind and gave us a warm welcome and explained how to use the heating. Everything was labeled in English which made things super easy. We really hope we can come back and visit again soon.

The place was really beautiful and clean. The owner even decorated the house for Christmas giving it a very welcoming vibe. The owners were really friendly and accommodating to our group of 10. The property is also huge with toilets with showers in every room which is a major plus.
The toilets in the rooms were slightly small so you have to be careful when using the showers.

I would recommend anyone to stay at this guesthouse, the house itself is wonderful, the bedroom’s are large and comfortable, the bathrooms are clean and the jet bath is an added bonus. The location is amazing with so much to do around that area, lots of hikes and places to cycle and enjoy the scenery. The hosts are amazing and couldn’t do enough for me, they really went above and beyond. I hope to come back in the future and stay here again. Thank you so much for everything.
Nothing, it was perfect.

Everything, if you want to explore a serene place. With utilities needed, it's all in one place. Friendly for all foreigners, small or large groups they can accommodate. All amenities, and goes an extra mile to refresh all products daily.
Can't mention a single thing. Amazing!

The staff were incredible, especially Ryota who gave us lots of advice and help getting around the area, told us about the best restaurants and sights. The stay was great as they were incredibly considerate and had lots of amenities such as pool, table tennis and old games consoles like a PS2 and Famicon.

The building and the furniture were all high quality build, and the layout felt open in a refreshing way, except the sleeping loft which felt adequately private and comfy.
Having to leave!

The owner had renovated as if he was staying, so it’s well though through and his passion in the interior and appliances is very visible.
Could have more lighting in the the bedroom.
