Guest Reviews
Hostel Murasaki
Hostel MurasakiStaff were excellent and the kitchen/free snacks were great. Thoughtful touches like free earplugs.
Loved the 100-year-old traditional house charm; tatami beds and electric blankets made for a cozy sleep.
Stairs are steep and bathrooms are only on the ground floor.
Great location walkable to both the train station and old town; friendly staff.
Rooms near common areas have paper doors, so noise carries easily.
