Great place with amazing service!

The lodge is run by a very friendly lady who was very accommodating. The rooms were very clean as well. Restrooms and showers are shared between rooms. There is also access to a communal microwave and refrigerator as well.

Nice owner, perfect location, varying breakfast

The owner was extremely kind. There were some bags in the room, but I suppose they weren't there because it was dirty but rather being in the mountain and log-house. The first-day breakfast was sort of whatever but the second day was very nice. The location was great. The owner was very kind to also offer transport means too. Overall, we are very satisfied.

回りが山なので静かです。 ペンションで木造作りの為に多少は隣、上の部屋の音が聞こえます。 Wi-Fiが完備されています。 エアコンは無く扇風機ですが、夜は涼しいので網戸でも少し寒く感じます。 共同風呂なので、朝風呂は予約制です。 トイレは2つあり、どちらもウォシュレットです👍 オーナーがとても優しいです(^^)

One night during a trip to Nikko

We have a family stay during a trip to Nikko. The Hotel is far, and the road have many hard curves, but it was easy to find and worth the cost. The room is big enought to 4 people, warm, comfortable beds and the breakfast was very good and complete. We rented a car, and the parking is at the road in front of the hotel, and free.

口コミと全然違う

部屋がジメジメしていて、ベットのシーツも掛け布団もしっとり。寝れないので、自分のバスタオルを履いて寝ました。貸し出しのタオルもジメッとしていた。素泊まりで13000円。ありえない。次の日に用事があったから仕方なく泊まった。 最悪⤵️。口コミと全く違う。
