Great value and attention to details from the hist
It was a great stay! Everything that you could need was provided! Very friendly environment both the staff and the guest! Special Kudos to Maya who manages the hostel very professionally and welcoming. She provided very useful information as well as the gentleman that was also there!
Zen Hostel is in a neat, old, traditional Japanese building. The lounge overlooks a pretty Japanese garden which can be viewed through the giant windows making it seem like you are outside.
The walls throughout the hostel are adorned with nice photos from around the world.
The floor in my private room was covered by beautiful tatami mats on which a futon is placed for sleeping. The futon was a little thin for sleeping on my side (boney hips) but was otherwise comfortable.
Everything is clean.
The heaters provided kept the room as toasty as I needed but the common spaces are pretty cold so bring warm jammies in the winter for the trip to the restroom. I don't consider this a negative for this hostel as I found it is normal for there to be cold common spaces in places in the low budget range (I wouldn't know about the fancy hotels in Japan).
The staff were super nice and speak English.
The breakfast options were yummy and reasonable at 600 yen. The dinner menu is limited but my curry was good.
The location is perfect, just 5 minutes walk to the bus and train station and close to all restaurants.
I definitely recommend this place!

Clean hotel, but wifi is slow and too far from metro or JR station
We stayed at a "private" twin room and once our door was opened by someone while we were away, and another time while we were still inside someone came into our room even though it was locked!
It was a mistake but I couldn't recommend the private room if you are concerned about someone entering the room.
Furthermore my girlfriend didn't think the room was that clean, personally I thought it was average.
Service was nice and it's not far from station. However this area doesn't have many stores or restaurants that are open. I chose to come here because my girlfriend lives close by, but hotels in Nagano city are much cheaper and cleaner if you book in advance. Unfortunately my girlfriend was a bit picky and didn't want to travel to Nagano so I ended up paying more money for less.
If you have the choice, stay at a hotel in Nagano city or choose this if you want to be close by some specific tourist attraction.
