Staff were great when booking us a big traditional room as a double without ensuite on the second floor. it was a big room., toilets down the other end of the hall. Staff knowledgeable on the area. Within quick walking distance to the station. Wifi on every floor. The showers are on the ground floor which could be inconvenient if you have to walk all that way but we decided to enjoy the neighbourhood sento and area onsen so we didn't have a need to have a shower. The convenient store at the station is the closest one and we went there a lot to get water, breakfast etc. Although there are supermarkets not far from there. This is the 3rd j-hoppers I have stayed at, they are fairly much the same.

Traditional room was clean and comfortable. The woman at the front desk was extremely helpful with travel arrangements and spoke very good English. Takayama was a lovely town. Only minor complaint is that the front desk is not staffed all day and the luggage storage room is unlocked.

Takayama is a small town so you better stay in the strategic location so I'd say to choose J-Hoppers.
Rooms are basic & clean. We stayed at the traditional room and it's so big!
overall I love my stay at Hida-Takayama. People there are very polite & friendly.
