Just what you need and close to a train station
IM is hard to find at first but once you have figured out a route it is super easy to the train station from the shop alleyway. Has everything you need, great wifi and a fridge however nothing to cook on. Great for location, has heating and wifi in rooms and the living area to hang out in. If you want a cheap place with basics this is the place to stay.

Stayed in a room with a bunk bed with my friend, beds were comfortable and we had a key for the room. The staff was friendly and the hostel was easily accessible from the station. There is an excellent Indian/Nepal restaurant in the covered shopping street just 5 min away.

My daughter and I enjoyed IM Guest House. She wanted a little more traditional place during our vacation and this worked well for us.

Good but not great.
Staff are friendly and the room is convenient enough. Could do with a few more details, lamps, tables tv etc. Current set up is more like a boarding house for students than a ryoukan. Once you are checked in you can come and go as you please, which was great.

不錯的民宿
老闆娘很熱情,會講一點英文,房間乾淨但浴室有點舊,隔音不太好所以晚上要小聲點以免影響他人,廚房用具齊全餐桌很大,附近有超市賣蔬菜,開伙很方便,櫃檯有寫老闆娘的聯絡方式,聯絡後很快就會來。沒有電梯所以住二樓的話要扛行李箱上去。

큰 추억을 선물해주셔서 감사합니다.
5박6일 여행일정 이곳에서 다 묵었습니다. 나미상이 너무 친절하시고 한국말을 잘하셔서 깜짝 놀랐습니다. 현지인 답게 나미상이 추천해준 여행지나 즐길거리들은 다 최고였습니다. 다음에 친구들과 다시 오고싶은 마음이 큰데 다시와도 이곳으로 숙소를 잡을것같습니다. 잘 지내다가 갑니다~

お金で買えないサービスがいっぱいです。
話していて楽しくなるゲストハウスです。最新の設備ではありませんが、料理をしたり旅行者と話をしたり、買い物を楽しんだり、、、、女将さんの情深さは大阪の人情を感じます。私が帰るときバイクで来ていただいて送るって言われて、本当に心からありがとうって言いたいです。安いだけでじたら、他のゲストハウスでも満足できると思いますが、快適で楽しく家族の一員のように心地好いサービスでしたら、このゲストハウスをお奨めします。
