    Very cost guest house in a perfect location. Away from the tourists and in front of the best bagel place in town.

    I had a wonderful experience. The hostel is conveniently located not far from the bus terminal. The owner was incredibly generous, offering me a ride to Yubatake after check-in and suggesting some excellent onsens to visit. I enjoyed my stay here...
