K's House Ito Onsen - Historical Ryokan Hostel

I stayed in the most expensive premium Japanese-style room with river view, but I couldn't sleep properly because there were multiple rooms upstairs and the ceiling was banging all night long. The old house was not soundproofed at all. If you want to experience a Japanese-style old house, you can come here. If you want to have a good rest, it is not recommended. It is really impossible to sleep!

I found a big cockroach when I went up the stairs, but the old house is indeed like this. Overall it is very good, the roommates are also very friendly, and the wooden room is very atmospheric.

How can I put it... If I were young and came to Japan for the first time, I would have loved it here. Because of the novel experience, I stepped on the creaking wooden floor in a century-old building and looked out the window at the reflected pines and cypresses, the stream with floating ducks, and the distant mountains. But, maybe my expectations were a little high or I was used to staying in good Japanese-style hot spring hotels, or maybe it was because I didn’t book a room with a private bathroom. This was my first youth hostel experience in my life, and the overall feeling was average. Because the first floor has been renovated, there are many spaces for gatherings or resting alone. Each window has a view, creating a harmonious and comfortable Japanese leisure atmosphere. There is even a computer (but of course it is not easy to use or turn on). The small kitchen is big enough for one person to boil water for making noodles and tea. Room, average. It may be rainy for days and there may be insects. The public restrooms are cramped. It’s also strange. I have stayed in various Japanese-style hotels that have been renovated from century-old houses. Some of them also use public restrooms. They are all old but clean, comfortable and interesting. I even stayed at a Nagano temple overnight, which was extremely simple and very comfortable. comfortable. But Khouse found it uncomfortable and unhygienic. Of course, foreigners like this kind of place, seeking cultural curiosity, gathering and chatting on the first floor, and sleeping on the ground floor at night. Some foreigners who are not familiar with Japanese hot springs enter the pool directly. Comparative diaphragm response. In short, it is recommended to more cautious travelers who have never experienced a Japanese-style old hotel. The price is really not expensive, so don’t compare it with hot spring hotels that cost thousands more. It doesn't mean the same thing. The Dongkai Pavilion next door has the same style. It has history and culture, but I personally think it is a bit too old. Eating nearby is convenient. The eel rice opposite requires reservation at least one day in advance (peak season). It takes 4 minutes to take a taxi from the station and 8-10 minutes to walk. Overall 3.5 points, most likely it's my own problem. But my daughter also feels average. Youth hostels are still suitable for young foreigners and foreign families who are visiting Japan for the first time.

It's a very Japanese-style hotel. You stay in a Japanese-style room. There are tatami mats and a coffee table in the room. To sleep, you need to take the mattress and bed from the cupboard. It looks very clean. There is a relatively large balcony outside, equipped with two wicker chairs and a glass round table. It is quite good to sit for a while and look at the river view outside the balcony when you have time. It has a different feeling. Be careful to close doors and windows at night, as there are more mosquitoes in summer. There is a private hot spring on the second and third floors, which is a small private hot spring. It is said to be a hot spring but it feels like a bathroom with a small bath. However, it would be nice to be able to soak alone for a while. But if you want to go out of your way to soak in a hot spring, it’s better to go to a specialized hot spring store. The bathroom is public, toothbrushes are charged, washing machines are also charged, luggage can be stored for free, and the kitchen and microwave can also be used for free. In addition, it is said that this house is a hundred years old and is a tangible cultural property. I have not verified it specifically, but it does seem to be quite old. Overall, this is a good choice if you want to experience a one-night stay in a Japanese-style room.

I feel comfortable. There are free hot spring baths. I am particularly satisfied with the fact that there is a free private hot spring. The accommodation is on the ground with tatami mats. The disadvantage is that there is nothing interesting in the city itself. I just go to the surrounding areas, so I can only stay in the inn at night.

It's quite pleasant to live in an old house with a century-old architecture. The rest area on the first floor is very comfortable, but it's really life-threatening for girls to carry their luggage to the third floor. The toilet is quite cramped.

I stayed here for two nights. The Japanese wooden ancient building is so delicious. It has hot springs and is great value for money.
