The place was very near the station. Easy to take the train to Nagano for a ski trip. There are 24 hour eateries nearby and also convenient stores. The rooms are clean and there are plenty of bedrooms and toilets. However, only one shower. Check it was super easy and the place was easy to find. Bedrooms are comfortable, however the living space and the kitchen is very tight. If you just need the place to sleep, then this place is good for big groups. We arrived late, around midnight and caught the train at 11am the next day.
