Mash Cafe & Bed Nagano Hostel

The hotel was newly built and very clean. There were plenty of bathrooms and toilets, so no need to wait in line. The free drink corner was a great perk, offering unlimited tea, coffee, milk, and soft drinks. The location was perfect, close to the train station and within walking distance of the temple and other attractions. The staff were friendly and helpful.

The slippers should have been provided for every guest, as some were wearing outdoor shoes in the sleeping rooms and bathrooms. This made the cleanliness of the sleeping area questionable.

The value for money at Mash Cafe & Bed was fantastic. The room was clean and comfortable, with spacious bunk beds and plenty of storage space for luggage. The hotel's location was perfect, just a short walk from the train station and close to attractions like Zenko-ji. The staff were friendly and helpful, making my stay even more enjoyable.

The morning meal could have been better with more breakfast options available.

The location was convenient as it was super close to Nagano station. The beds were spacious and comfortable, great for a restful night's sleep. I also appreciated the free drinks available, and being able to use the restaurant lounge even after it closed. I would highly recommend this hotel.

During my recent stay at Mash Cafe & Bed, I was impressed by the helpfulness of the reception staff. They provided me with all the information I needed upon my arrival, ensuring a smooth check-in process. The self-contained bunk beds offered a sense of privacy in the large dorm room, and despite the hostel being quite busy, it was surprisingly quiet. The location of the hostel was fantastic, being very close to the rail and bus stations. The value for money was also quite good. The seating area in the cafe provided a comfortable and relaxing space, and I appreciated the complimentary tea and coffee.

Though there were a few drawbacks, such as the small communal area, the lack of hostel management resulting in neglect of certain areas, and limited space in the lockers, overall I would highly recommend Mash Cafe & Bed.

I stayed at Mash Cafe & Bed for one night as a solo traveler. The hotel's location is super convenient, just a short walk from the train station. There are also several 100 yen shops nearby, making it easy to find anything I needed. The staff was friendly and the washrooms were clean and well-maintained. I appreciated the amenities provided in the shower room, including soap, shampoo, and conditioner. The bed had a locker, a small light, and two sockets, one of which was a USB port. a great experience.

I do recommend this hotel.

The location was perfect, right in the city centre. Our dorm room was like a capsule hotel, with individual pods that had all the necessary amenities like plugs, USB ports, lights, and hangers. the lockers provided added security for our belongings. the free drink bar was a nice touch, and we especially enjoyed the craft beers in the cafe/bar on the main floor. the staff were incredibly kind, friendly, and helpful. Everything from the washrooms to the shower rooms and pods were clean. We would definitely stay here again. Cons: Everything was great! 😊.
