Youtei - Hostel

People are very kind and location is excellent. We ate at the restaurant most nights and really enjoyed everything we ate and drank!! Shabu shabu, ghengis khan, hot pot, cheese fries, beers on draft and the recommended sake!

All in all my mates and I had a great stay, we paid for a private room and paid almost the same amount you would for those little cubicles. Great option because we got to have a bit more privacy. The property was a great little hostel, they have two toilets, one in the restaurant and one in the back, a shower/bath for guests staying at the hostel. Fridge for your food from Seico or 7/11. There was nice big sinks for all your toiletry needs, as well as a washing machine and dryer (cost 1000¥ to use). All the staff are really friendly, they know minimal English so be prepared when you speak to them. They run the restaurant from about 5pm - 12am as well as Karaoke until about 2am-3am, we couldn’t hear it in the room but I can’t say the same for the cubical. Great stay and would recommend it to anyone looking to stay on the cheaper side of accommodation in Rusutsu. It was 3 min walk to the resort or to Seicomart.

Awesome place with a great vibe and great people! Super close to the mountain… literally a few minute walk and also a minute away from a great onsens in the Rusutsu Resort. Had so much fun ridding the mountain and meeting travelers!

Basic place, but really fun and close to the resort.
