What a find! A beautiful traditional Japanese house - very old, yet very comfortable and spotlessly clean. I felt transported back in time. The house is an easy walk from Suhara railway station, there are restaurants close by and a fabulous supermarket down by the highway. An elderly gentleman checked us in and out - with lots of help from Google translate!

Nothing to dislike!

The host was very pleasant as he showed us his traditional Japanese home with a hearth, tatami mats, post and beam structure, etc. He has done a beautiful job of combining tradition with modern updates in the bathrooms and kitchen. The AC was already on upon our arrival in the sleeping/eating areas (important in August when you have high heat/humidity). Great value for this experience. On the Nakasendo trail. This was the most beautiful traditional Japanese home we stayed out during our travels in Japan.

La maison est mag inique et le propriétaire très sympathique ! Merci !

This is not a top luxury stay. Rather it's a time capsule. The building is 150 or so years old and walking in felt like stepping into one of the many open houses we've been in on Shirakawa-go or the Hida Folk Village ... but you get to sit around the low table, lay out your futons and actually spend a Night in the Museum 😉 So authentic. The host was super friendly and flexible. He and the cleaner came to bow us away in the morning. Lovely ppl, lovely place.

If you're not into laying our your own futon, or if you want 5* amenities, this one's not for you. But it was very clean, had everything you need including 2 (count them...2!) Robo-toilets!
