Convenient and a good price. Relatively close to the morning markets. For the price you get a full room, very clean showers and bathrooms, and a good amount of space. Note that the walls are quite thin so you can hear other people pretty easily.

Guest House Ouka is amazing!! The rooms and common area are very comfortable. The staff is so friendly and accomodating. They have tons of food and entertainment recommendations on the walls so I didn't have any worries about how to spend my time in Takayama. Lastly, they had unlimited free tea in the kitchen.

Super clean and cozy place. They were great but Expedia wasn’t with this one. I thought I was getting single Japanese style room with share bathroom. I arrived and found out I’m in mix dormitory. Picture shows you single room and information was single room with share bathroom until I arrived there. I don’t think junk it had anything to do with the place. They were all great. Again, super clean. Thank you

Leider sehr hellhörig. Ich habe 3 Nächte gebucht. Wäre am 2. Tag keine lauten Gäste aufgetaucht, wäre alles Megafein gewesen. So hat es die Nacht eher erschwert... War für den Tag dann etwas unglücklich. Sehr freundliche Mitarbeiter und der handschriftliche Willkommensgruß war klasse.

距離車站步行約10分鐘的路程，位於市役所旁邊，隔壁就有一件可以免稅買東西的7-11；入住時櫃台人員非常親切，退宿當天寄放了一段時間的行李也非常幫忙；一樓交誼廳有可以自己煮東西的地方，很適合去超市買個飛驒牛回來自己處理吃一下；這次居住日式和式房間獨立衛浴，周遭都是2-3層樓房，房間往外看的視野還行，以CP值來說滿高的；這次待在高山的時間比較少，沒有好好的享受高山市，下次來還會考慮在這裡住宿。
