Prefect Place
The hotel is well located 3 min from the train station. 1 min from the bus station and 10 min walk from the old town the main attraction.
The room was spacy (suite style) and had a washing/dryer machine in the kitchen.
The bed was comfortable and the bathroom OK
Priced well and one last piece of advice:
If you are planning to go to Shirakawa-go do NOT book accommodation there. Leave Takayama early enough (bus ticket-buy a day or two in advance) and either come back to Takayama the same night or (on a later afternoon bus) or continue with a bus to Kanazawa (using JR pass is not worthy for such a trip)
