    Best bunk beds, matresses and (supersoft) bedsheets I've had during my entire stay in Japan. Very comfortable, large beds and the indoor air climate of the dorms is well controlled. Bathrooms are clean and common kitchen is well equipped. Location is perfect, close to main attractions and still only 15 mins walking from the train station (but Matsumoto is not that big anyway). The street is a pedestrian little shopping street, so very quiet at night as well. I loved my stay and would recommend this hostel to anyone going to Matsumoto.

    A fantastic hostel - easily one of the best I've ever stayed in. The staff are so lovely and helpful, and the facilities are great. Everything is clean and comfortable. The hostel is also very quiet at night - I've never slept as well at a hostel as I did here. I can't fault anything, everything was amazing!

    The house was nice and it was sparkling clean. It had everything you would need in a house, fully equiped kitchen. Our host was very good in giving us instructions and information. I would definetly recommend this place. It is also within walking distance from the city centre, about 10 mins. It has a shopping mall 2 mins away and the station - 20 mins.

    Such a nice place, we really wish we could have stayed longer! The host had thought of so many things to make our stay comfortable, from the facilities they provided to the friendly notes explaining everything - especially important for those of different cultures like us! Great location and quiet - a dream. :)

    Very friendly hostel, in a great location not too far from Matsumoto castle. Rooms are Japanese style, with lots of space in the dorms. I had a large suitcase with me and there was plenty of storage space for it beside my futon! Lovely staff as well, great vibe in the hostel overall.

    The hostel is in a great location and so quiet. The staff are really helpful, but best of all you could feel the history of the place. We are a family of four (two boys aged 13 & 11) and all thought it was the best hostel we’ve stayed at - friendlier, more fun and better than many hotels. Would stay there happily again.

    Amazing hostel housed in building with a very traditional look, at a great location near the city centre. Bed was spacious and very comfy, toilets and bathrooms were always available and clean. Staff was very kind and helpful to point to good restaurants, bathhouses and things to see in the area. I also loved being able to take a bike to explore the area.
