Tabi-shiro Guest House - 日本

Overall a good stay. Staff are really helpful with sightseeing tips and a good restaurant to find in Matsumoto. Interior looks really neat, i loved sitting at the bar on the 1st floor. The walls and floors are really thin so a bit of advice here is to be careful, you'll make a noise easily and disturbing other room.

This is such a wonderful place to stay. They quality of the room is fantastic for the price. It's in a quiet area by the station and castle. It's located next to many good shops. I love how personable then owners are. They will help you find suggestions for places. They are also great to talk with. This is such a wonderful place to stay.

Very nicely renovated guesthouse, with very friendly hosts. There is a relaxed bar at the entrance where you can get some local craft beer and hints for your next day. We stayed in a private room which had air conditioning and very comfy futons.

Overall a very nice place in a pretty good location (6 min walk from the castle, 15 min walk from Matsumoto station). Nice vibe. However 1. walls are very thin. You should use earbuds (provided by the place) if you are a light sleeper. 2. You cannot get a drink from the bar after 22:00.

The tabi-shiro hostel was one of the most hearth warming places I have been to. The staff is extremely helpful with every question you have and they will try their best so you feel like at home. And if you break down your english a little bit, they will be grateful to learn more english by talking to you, while you get a deep dive in japanese culture ; The hostel is very good located with 10min to the train station and 5min to the castle. Big recommodation. Big thanks to the awesome team at tabi-shiro for one of my favourite experiences in japan!!
