Shirabu Onsen Nakaya Annex Fudokaku

Absolutely wonderful service! From the moment we got out of our taxi to the moment we got on the bus to leave, the people who run the place where amazingly welcoming!They got out into the snow to greet us and instantly warmed us with a cup of tea in the anteroom. They attended to our every need, and when they heard that we hadnt had dinner, they insisted on cooking us a small meal for free even though as a business, the place doesnt offer any meal service. And when we left they gave us small souvenirs.The building is nice and rustic, and looks great with snow gleaming on its roof. The room was quiet, clean, warm, and very comfortable. The baths were pleasant, the inside one was open 24 hours a day, and the outside one had snow within an arms reach of the rim.All in all, we wouldnt hesitate to stay here again! Just look out for arrival time as bus service to the area ends pretty early (around 6 or 7 PM, I believe).
