Canada“We love the food! There was so much and the quality was good. Also, the bus stop was just outside the property, making it easy to take public transport there. We were able to visit Shirakawa-go and Suganuma World Heritage sites.” - Michel
United States of America“The room and facilities were very nice in the Japanese style, futons with quilts for sleeping. Best of all was the heating table with skirts and low chairs. Get your legs underneath that and stay awhile! We had a meal plan, breakfast and dinner....”
