    Really enjoyed my stay - staff are awesome (Hiromi, Nori, Misato); 500 Yen meals are delicious. Drying room for ski gear is a real plus. Beds are comfortable & rooms have good heaters. It's the first hostel I've stayed at in Japan that has a good lounge and bar area! Just be aware it's a bit awkward/costly getting there from Hakuba TRAIN station (shuttle buses dont run throughout the day, so taxi is only option at approx 1300-1500 Yen). Buses from Tokyo arrive close to hostel though.
