Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
Great location, you can't miss the hotel as it is right outside the train station. There is a covered walkway almost all the way to the hotel from the station. Automated self service check in and out works, and the characters that respond as you go through the process are a cute touch. We had the most staff attention during breakfast, which was Japanese style with a fixed set meal (we had fried herring, rice and a number of side dishes with miso soup and yoghurt). There is a manga corner if you can read Japanese.
This is a beautiful place to stay in a wonderful location! The hostel is the heart of an interesting rural community, with older longtime residents in tile roofed houses and younger artistic residents... musicians, painters, farm to table chefs, etc.
You can walk in the nearby woods. See old Japanese houses. And eat scrumptious food in the adjacent Cafe. Highly recommend staying for more than one night.
