This is one of the most unique places I've stayed at. It's what I imagine living at a Japanese grandparents' home in the county side would be haha. It is old so it's a bit rickety on the stairs. It was also cold (though we happen to be there at the coldest time of winter) so we basically didn't leave the kotatsu when we were there. The futons were very warm though so we slept fine. Mitsu was a very attentive host and would often communicate with us to see how we were.
