Nice traditional inn
Good location. Comfortable traditional Japanese beds. Little table in room and small clothes hanging area along with own sink. Shared bathroom was OK, no issues with queuing for the shower or toilet. There was a separate toilet for male/female. No outdoor shoes throughout the property, but slippers are provided. Shared lounge is spacious and had tea and coffee available throughout the day. Kitchen small but with a range of things to use if you wished to cook in. Big fridge for sharing, just write room number on your items. Knives were stick to magnetic strip on one of cupboard door (I missed that initially so used a normal knife to bluntly cut my apple). Easy walk to the main attractions and station. Lots of food options. The owner will provide you with a map with some reccomended food options. The restaurant next door is excellent, we wanted to go again, but it was closed on Sunday.

A delightful little inn!
This is a delightful little inn. The staff are welcoming, efficient and gave us great recommendations on where to eat and what to see. Our Japanese style room was comfortable, even large by Japanese standards. There is also a beautiful lounge for guests to use. Breakfast was great and is very reasonably priced. We would certainly stay here again if we were back in Takayama.

This was a very clean, but basic, accommodation. The location was excellent, and the mats in the Japanese room were much more comfortable than others we have stayed on elsewhere.

Like the inn and room we stay. Clean, tidy and the room is big. The property is near the old street and nearby have a lot of restaurants to choose and the food are tasty. The Inn allow us to keep our baggage overnight. This is much more appropriated because it make us easy to transit to Shinhotaka ropeway then overnight at Hirayu. We will stay here again if there is a chance to visit Takayama.

Best time in Takayama
The hostel is great !!! Very comfortable mattress. I booked for Japanese style with bathroom. The mattress is thicker than normal Japanese ones which is the best. This is individually, I can sleep better after the long day out and walk around a lot. Free tea and coffee located on 2nd floor, share kitchen and common area. I was walking in the back street across from the hostel and found the local restaurant that full of Japanese ppl. I went there for 2 nights durymy stay in Takayama. The food is fantastic, nice environment. Sit at the bar, chat with the local then drink sake with them. It was one of the best time I had in Japan. The worst part is hang over next day. Fully recommended this hostel!!!! Great location, an out 7 mins walk from Takayama station.

A gem
Don't be put off by the small entrance, you will find a gem here. The host was extremely friendly, even let us borrow a book to bring back home (I promised to send it back after finished reading it)! Great location, close to the center of town and JR station.

Excellent location. Small and homely and the owner is an expat and still is able to speak reasonable English, {just joking, he speaks excellent English.} Rooms are a reasonable size with good facilities. We had a room with a private bathroom and it was excellent. On 3 levels and only stairs no elevators, but that's fine. Nice lounge to sit and read or have a coffee.

Not the best Japanese style living experience!!
While we knew we had not booked a fancy hotel, as they were quite expensive in Takayama, we were quite taken aback when we realised how tiny the room was! The pictures were definitely deceiving in this case.also, the description mentioned shared bath but even toilets were shared, we were not expecting that. Lounge and lobby area was good and had that old Japanese feeling to it but rooms itself were below expectation the staff at reception while checking in was good but later never there and ater calling them couldn't help much. Our wifi never worked, not in the room nor in the lounge. And the staff dint even try to fix that
