Great location close to all the small public baths. A bit far from the main station but still walkable or reachable by bus. The room is clean and cozy with very old Ryokan vibes. The hotel itself has a private bath and public bath with shower. Not very clean but ok. I guess depends on what time you use it. The breakfast is nice and simple, really enjoyed it. You can walk to the monkey park from here.
They do not have air conditioning or a heater in the room. This is the first time I’ve encountered this in Nagano or in accommodation around a ski area (I ski every week).
The floor heating is insufficient and does not warm the room at all. It was freezing at night. On top of that, the mattress is uncomfortably hard and the blanket is very heavy. Even after a long day of skiing, I barely managed to sleep. And the next morning, my whole body was sore.
Aside from the sleep issues, everything else was acceptable.
