This is the cheapest place you'll get in this area by far. Nothing too fancy. It 's a bit older and dark with minimal lighting, but it 's not dirty. The bathroom cleanliness standards (for females, at least. I wouldn't know for the male bathrooms) are up to any modern Japanese standard. The beds are very soft and warm, which is a huge plus for the mountainous area. The blankets have down fillings for warmth, so another plus. They have a microwave and plenty of warm water, but no fridge dedicated to guests. Reception is lovely, lovely, lovely. They even played our favorite anime on Netflix once they heard we were anime fans. The location is top notch for convenience, as it 's right across the station.
