The scrambled eggs and toast were good with a variety of breads to choose from.

We had difficulty communicating with our host to reserve a regular breakfast each morning. She apologised sincerely for not meeting our request.

Very friendly service and location/access to the ski resort was great.

Maybe a traditional pillow and some extra sheets (for pillow and bed) would have made for a cleaner feeling experience. The comforters looked well used - some additional fabric for the comforter and mattress would have been appreciated. The shower is co-located with the bath/onsen, which is hour restricted to the afternoon with requests for the morning available. I ended up using a separate hot spring for showing.

We loved how cozy the property was. We didn’t know when we booked the property but the fire festival is held right in front of the property which is super cool. We watched the preparations from the property. There were traditional Japanese tatami mat rooms. It was our first time. The traditional breakfast (1500 yen extra) was delicious. The property’s onsen had hot spring water and it was clean. Wonderful staff! Super kind and helpful. The distance into the center of town was reasonable and not a far walk at all. The free skiing shuttle bus is super close to the property.

The property description stated free parking, but it wasn’t. There is a large parking lot in front of the property and it cost us 2000 yen for 2 days. The room heater shuts off after 8 hours, and when it shuts off it makes loud beeping sounds in the middle of the night.

Everything was excellent

Nothing

Close to bus stop, had a reasonable drying room, room was as expected, staff were courteous.

No reasonably sized lounge area, had to hang in rooms (move all bedding etc aside). One room had a bad odour (the others were fine). Breakfast was very minimal (ie. two cocktail franks, a yoghurt, some lettuce, a juice, an egg and toast). Shared showering facilities had opening hours (which were in the evening, needed to contact reception to use it in the morning). Location was on the outskirts of town on the opposite side to the slopes, stretching the definition of ski-in (we were unable to as the roads were not covered in snow).
