Nice little village, beautiful landscape. About Seifu-so there's nothing more to say than perfect!!! The food was delicious, the rooms and the building itself are authentically Japanese and really beautiful. The hot spring was relaxing..... but above all the family and staff were so warmhearted, friendly and helpful. I've never stayed in such a great accommodation before. Thank you so much for everything!!!

We stayed at Seifu-so, Yudanaka Onsen, Nagano.

This hostel lies at the top of Hakone mountainous area, in Naka-Gora. Overall, a decent location for those who want to be in said area, however a location closer to Gora station would be better since the cable car does not start running until around 7:30AM. The hotel from the outside looks like it has seen better days. However, the Ryokan room for three was quite spacious and equipped. This hostel even has it's own natural onsen, and the sushi supper was genuine. Overall, a nice experience.

 
Stayed at  Shin Matsuba Ryokan, Iizaka Onsen Fukushima Pref.
