The owner/staff was very helpful and attentive. If you want to go taste some wine in the area they will give you a free ride to and from any local winery. I highly recommend for solo travelers and groups alike.

I visited with two large bikes. I parked under the carport, but I wonder if it's up to two cars. They took us to the nearby Grape Hill and we were able to enjoy wine tasting with peace of mind.

Great accommodation. Every corner of the building has been carefully designed and is comfortable. There is a large lounge. Wine is also sold at low prices. There's no TV, no radio. If there is nothing else nearby, you can have a glass of wine and chat with other guests after dark. Yes, it's pitch black at night. I was a little surprised that the owner was very knowledgeable about the area and was able to answer any questions I had. You can also easily receive transportation to surrounding facilities such as Wine Hill, restaurants, and wineries. By the way, I walked back to Wine Hill, but it was uphill all the way, so I took a quick look. I can walk to the station, but it's not worth asking for a ride. There is a covered parking lot at the back of the building for motorbikes, so don't worry. I don't actually know the definition of a youth hostel, but it's fun to be able to communicate casually like this. [2023.05]

Generally similar to other reviews. The well-maintained building, the location overlooking the vineyards and city center, and the service provided by the owner (transportation to and from the hot spring facility, talk about the land, tourist information) all made it feel like a five-star property. The owner has a wealth of experience in mountain climbing, so it is recommended for those who like mountains, and of course, the inn is completely safe from the coronavirus.

I visited you at the end of May. This was my first time in Katsunuma, and the owner taught me a lot of information about Katsunuma's charms and trivia, and it was a truly wonderful trip. We were two women and didn't have a car, but they gave us lots of advice and gave us transportation, which was very helpful. The room and common space were very clean and comfortable, and the sunlight was shining in so it felt good. Next time I would like to visit in a different season and stay a little longer. I will definitely visit you again! !
