There were bed bugs, lots of them, more than one. The worst accommodation I've ever stayed in Japan. There is no heating in the public areas and it is very cold in winter. The hot water in the public bathhouse was very small and the temperature was low, and there was cold wind blowing in. It was terrible and I almost caught a cold. There were flying insects in the room. There is dust accumulation in many places. The tatami in the room was dented in places and the hardware was a complete mess. By the way, there is no hot water in the tap, only cold water. Sour and refreshing.

Unique experience & run by senior couple. Room is basic but the breakfast served is unexpected. Thanks to the owner & boss lady for the hospitality.

We really liked the hotel, it was very exotic for us, we swam in the onsen - it was magical, we slept on a futon for the first time in our lives - many thanks to the owners for their hospitality. Hello from St.Petersburg

I very much enjoyed my stay at this little gem in the beautiful Onsen town of Yudanaka in the mountains. This ryokan is owned by an older Japanese couple. It had a private Onsen on site, so if you are not comfortable with the idea of using a public Onsen, I recommend this ryokan for you. Do keep in mind, this is an old building and is not a flashy or fancy place by any means. My stay here was very comfortable, and it feels very homey and safe here. This place is located very conveniently near the Yudanaka train station (10 min walk) and the Snow Monkey park (10 min bus ride to the top- then a 30 min hike to the park). There are also very many site-seeing spots nearby. Shibu Onsen and the World Peace statue are both musts. If you are considering coming to this cute sleepy unseen town, I recommend staying here.

Owners are nice people. Seems family-owned, so very traditional and homely. However, facilities are extremely dated, and there were cobwebs everywhere, which made me highly doubt the cleanliness...

Relaxed, friendly service. A delicious breakfast. A good traditional experience with wonderful foot bath right outside the front door.

Amazing feel
Super cool older building. They could advertise the public onsen down the road better. Not much english, but its a very very cool place to stay.

Fabulous stay and fantastic hosts.
This is a fantastic stay. The owners are super friendly and helpful. The breakfast was exceptional. The onsen is great. Everyone should try and stay in a ryokan while in Japan. They were very kind in waiting for me to turn up and check in later (10pm). I would recommend 100%.
