エアコンからポコポコと異音があってうるさい。 防音性が悪く隣室のいびきが聞こえる。 部屋に冷蔵庫やトイレがなく、共用トイレ内で寝ている客がいるなど迷惑な客がいた。

良かった点は24時間自由に出入りできるところで、夜間や早朝に写真を撮りに行くには便利でした。人によってはセキュリティの面でデメリットと感じるかもしれません。 一方悪かった点ですが、壁材が薄いのか、夜間ノイズがひどく寝付きに影響しました。

新しい設備で 掃除もきちんとしてあり 良かったと思います。 ただ トイレが1階にただ１つというのは ちょっと 少ないと思います……⤵️ 犬も泊まれて とても助かりましたが 他所である様な 足拭きや 水入れ コロコロ等 何も無く 残念でした… ちゃんと 料金を お支払いするのですから せめて それくらい 気持ちを感じたかったです。 スタッフさんは とても気さくで良かったです☺️

居心地の良いホテル

民宿とは思えない雰囲気の良いホテルでした。 素敵なスタッフの皆さん、可愛い看板犬、美味しいご飯に満足です。 また北海道に行く機会が有れば、また宿泊したいです！
まーくん, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice place, close to the train/bus station. Staff is very friendly; their English is a little bit limited but good enough to make it work. You can rent bikes for a little cheaper than the rental places around the train station. They're not especially nice bikes, but they'll get the job done -- I managed to ride to Shikisai no Oka and Shirogane Blue Pond with it (about 40km round trip). Rooms are basic but comfortable. Overall, good value for the money.

2/10 Poor

我比较懒，很少点评，但这一次真的是不吐不快。这家酒店位置一般，距离火车站步行大约6-8分钟。在这样的小镇属于很远，周围没有什么店铺或超市，大部分都在步行距离10-15分钟。说是家庭旅店，其实更像青年旅舍。一层楼所有房间共用两间淋浴和一个厕所，一个两人位的梳洗台和一个人餐厅（全楼共用），洗澡时间有限定，10点后不保证有热水。双人间的床非常窄，只有1.2m左右，被套是上面带个洞的那种，感觉很不干净。我们带着孩子，一定要我们加付两晚的儿童费用共约5000日元，但是没有加床，也没有提供任何额外的服务（我们的预定不含餐，早餐额外收费700一个人），最多就是多了一个孩子洗澡的水费。如果要用毛巾、牙刷、牙膏等洗漱用品全部都要额外收费，一件一次100日元。房间清扫也很马虎，被子都不铺，只是倒了垃圾。除此之外，居住期间我们没有感受到任何服务。一晚750RMB加上后来追加的大约900RMB一晚，这算是我在hotels上最糟糕最让人失望不满的一次预定。劝大家一定要谨慎选择。 Very small room and bed (1.2m). 2 shared bathrooms and 1 toilet for the whole floor. Request extra fee for our kid but provide no extra service. In total ~150USD per night for 2 adults and 1 kid without breakfast. Almost no room service during the stay except rubbish empty. Towel, teeth brush, and anything you may get for free from other hotels will charge at least 100JPY per time. This is the worst experience I've ever had on hotels.com. I will suggest you to take serious consideration before you make the reservation.

服務態度差，飲用水少，廁所少，不方便

CHENG-HSIUNG, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Very bad service attitude of Owner, worst in Japan

There is only one toilet shared by visitors within the whole building (~8-10 rooms?). The worst of all is the service attitude of whom I believe is the owner lady. During the first night of my two nights' stay, I asked for hot water to soak the fresh Corn which I bought from the market and surprisingly the answer was 'NO'. To avoid any chance of miscommunication and ask her again, trying to explain to her that what I asked for is Hot Water and her answer was an affirmative NO. Honestly I was shocked by her response and unfortunately I can confirm that this is not miscommunication, but truly due to her service attitude. For comparison I would to share a similar case with another pension in Biei which I stayed one week earlier. I asked for the same and the staff (another pension) not only give me hot water, but took the corn, boiled and packed very nicely before handed back to me.

近火車站，但共用廁所及浴室有點不便！

晚上需排隊輪流使用浴室，雖然話浴室開放至晚上10時，但過限時後仍可使用！ Good location.

저렴한 가격에 맞는 숙소

더블룸이었는데 침대가 너무 좁아 불편했고, 샤워실 2개, 화장실 1개가 있었는데 남녀 공용이라 불편했고 샤워할 때까지 기다리는 시간이 많습니다. 하지만 전반적으로 청결했고 관리상태는 좋았던 것 같습니다. 비에이역에서 가깝습니다 (도보 10분 내외).

8/10 Very good

Good location. 10 minutes walk from the station

- The environment is quiet. - Easy to get to the house if you know the way to get it. - The house is clean. Both hot and cold water are provided. - Unfortunately, street lamp is not sufficient. It is not good to walk in the street at night.

到火車站方便

房間整體清潔,新,出火車站轉左直行看見停車場,過鐵路軌直行過三個街口,轉右便是,步行約8分鍾,環境非常清靜.
