Good space for the money
The guest house was clean and the owner courteous. It's a bit far from the main action in town, but it's a very good price.

Good little guesthouse, great quality for price. The owner is helpful and has a good sense of humor. Very good wifi and bathroom facilities, has a washing machine but no dryer and not enough adequate drying space to compensate but that's only a minor issue. The common room is also a little cramped - but not much you can do there either.

Good value for money
We stayed at Gekka for 3 nights. The place felt like home and the owner's love for music gave it a nice touch. the place was very clean and well maintained. It's an OK walk from the train station. Mind that the walls are paper thin, but for the price payed we had a good experience. when we left it was raining and the owner took us to the train station with his car- great hospitality.

コスパ良し。静かな住宅街
今回、５人部屋を予約したのですが実際は７台のベッドがありました。部屋は清掃が行き届いており寝るだけなら十分です。向かいにはパン屋さん、コンビニまでは歩いて１分です。高山の駅周辺までは歩いて２０分位かかります。

ottima guesthouse
Gekka è un posto piacevole, a pochi minuti dal centro ma in una bella posizione tranquilla. Il prezzo è veramente onesto e la camera è pulita e confortevole.

老闆的態度讓人不會再次前往
房間一切都ok，但老闆給人的感覺很不舒服，這就算了，明明還沒有到check out的時間，我們在客廳吃早餐，老闆開門摔門、用力的在打掃、用力的發出各種噪音，讓人全身不舒服，是個很不好的住宿體驗，從入住到離開，完全沒有放鬆的感覺

高山にきたらここですね
はじめてのゲストハウスでしたが、プライバシーもきちんと配慮していて居心地がよかったです。 寝室が保健室みたいに仕切りがあるだけなので、それが気にならないなら「決まり」ですね。

En la habitación común no se permiten ronquidos
Hostal muy acogedor y cómodo, perfecto para mochileros. Situado a escasos 15 minutos a pie de la estación de trenes y del casco histórico. En las camas hay cartelitos que te invitan a ir a una de las habitaciones de la segunda planta a dormir si roncas. Todo muy limpio.

設備簡陋不足
浴室只有一個，其他人使用時就連洗手盆及洗衣機乜—同被鎖上而不能用。一屋十多人不足夠啊。 入住後才告知如鼻鼾聲大要搬上二樓全無遮掩床位。 天！凌晨一時隣床日本客人執行李，嘈吵了半小時，不懂日文才不去投訴。 尚算整潔。

graziosa guest house
arrivati coi bagagli peanti in stazione abbiam dovuto prendere un taxi, chiesto al proprietario(che parla pochissimo inglese) per il villaggio di Hida e ci ha detto che distava 1km ed alla fine invece ne abbiamo dovuti fare 3 km,
