"We were not in the main hotel, we were sent to the "annex" across the street. It was not clear when we booked that we would be in this other building. This annex is more like a run-down hostel than a hotel, right down to the pair of used underwear hanging by the shared sinks. The common areas in the annex did not have heat. And the heater in our room could barely keep up with the drafty windows. The wifi was nearly non-existent and barely strong enough to send emails. The onsen was in the main building, while the washrooms in the annex had a strong sewage smell. The hotel is a 5-10 minute drive from the main village, so plan accordingly. The area around it is quite nice and quiet with a couple of little cafes. The suggested walking time to Iwatake ski hill is an ambitious time; it took us twice as long to get to the lifts. Overall it was pretty disappointing. "

"The property is nice, the onsen is a terrific feature and the staff were excellent and helpful with our many questions for inbound/outbound travel. However, for upwards of $400 per night, the dining options were rather basic and, given the hotel's somewhat remote location, the sporadic shuttle schedule and drop-off locations made the ski resorts somewhat of a challenge to reach."

"Friendly staff. Good location for the shuttle bus and good Onsen. "

"Clean, very comfortable, good breakfast buffet, and hospitality of all staff "
