This hostel is located very close to Zenkojishita temple. Although the space is a little cramped, the hostel provides all basic necessity items like laundry, shared kitchen, free tea and coffee. They even provide free toast in the morning. They have a small bar in the lounge area where you can have Sake and interact with other guests. Value for money place.

For the price, this is really a great hostel and place for stay for the short term. The staff are very friendly and approachable, and always greet guests warmly. The place itself is an old wooden Japanese house, but nicely maintained and cozy on the inside. Decorations are cute as heck and gives the whole place a nice chill vibe. They also provide each guest two free toast with different jams and butters, and coffee in the morn for breakfast. Only potential downside is that the bunk bed can be a little hard. Everything else was A++.

This is a lovely hostel pretty close to Zenkoji (about a 20 minute straight walk from Nagano station). Sweet wooden house and clean. The staff speaks good English and were very helpful and kind. Free breakfast of one slice of toast and jam in the morning. Can do your laundry for 100 yen. The only downside is there is only one shower and toilet for the whole place and both are located downstairs while the rooms are upstairs. However, the place wasn't full when I stayed there and there was no issue. I think this is very good value for money and I recommend it as a place to stay in Nagano.

申し訳ないのですが、良く利用しているサイトからホテルが取れず、hotelsでゲストハウスを予約しました。 中は良く清掃されていました。 善光寺からとても近いので、観光にはベストな立地です。

ドミトリーが初めてなので心配していましたが、スタッフの方はとても親切で、建物も古民家の趣があり良かったです。古い建物なのでどうしてもドアの開閉音、階段のギィギィ音などがあり、神経質な方は止めた方がいいと思います。案外カーテン1枚でも自分の空間が保たれて良かったです。

, clean and warm atmosphere.

It is located in very calm area near by Zenkoji, old wooden house. Everything is tiny but pretty nice hostel with friendly and warm atmosphere, clean washroom and toilets, convenient kitchen.They have a washing machine but no dryer. こぢんまりとした居心地の良いホステル。古民家ですが寒くもなく水周りも清潔で快適。ただ2階のイビキが聞こえるほど音は響きます。海外のゲスト含め穏やかな人が集まってくる印象で、のんびり滞在したい方に良いと思います。
