We had the use of the entire house. We chose a property with a private onsen, which we enjoyed. The bedding was traditional Japanese and comfortable.

A very disappointed experience! I booked this resort on Hotels.com, which clearly mentioned the room was equipped with private onsen. However, when we arrived the staff told us that there was a failure on the water pump and they couldnt provide onsen water! The only solution they had offered was some PUBLIC onsen entries on its surrounding area…. This is totally unacceptable and disappointed that we drove so far to here and they couldnt provide this particular service, with no compensation and just this UNRELATED alternatives. Not to mentioned that those public onsen has time limitation which didnt suits our schedule(last entry at 8:30pm)! It was a nightmare that the temperature was below ZERO degree and we had to take a open air bath without the spring Onsen! Whats the difference than we go camping? I immediately referred this matter to the customer service at Hotels.com, but the result was not very helpful! They replied that on the special entey condition they have a footnote that the onsen was unavailabe due to the typhoon damage…I found it was really misleading that, 1st, on the room description, it had mentioned the room would provide a private onsen. 2nd, the picture also showed their rooms are providing such service. Honestly, no one would dig deep to an unobvious footnote! I really hope that they should treat this matter seriously, or this would greatly damage your reputation and service commitment!

Irresponsible Hotel left us outside in a typhoon

We booked the hotel the day of the trip as we had change plans due to Typhoon Haishen. When we entrance to the hotel was blocked with a rope and they did not answer the phone. There was noone to get any information, we did not get a cancellation or a notification. We were left in the typhoon with nowhere to go and struggled to find anything for hours during when the weather got really bad. We had to drive under fallen trees, get out of the car to pull branches off road and hide in someone’s garage in our car because of this hotel’s irresponsible act. They left us in a life threatening situation which is unacceptable. Hotels.com representatives did their best to help us over the phone while we were looking for another place. So thank you hotels.com for that.

很喜歡这間小屋kiri,很舒服，當天下雪，超喜歡这個電暖桌子，整個房子有暖氣很溫暖。屋子的露天溫泉十分好，水溫夠熱。正！（但洗澡也在室外，怕冷人仕注意！）一般煮食用品也齊全，我自帶便携爐打邊爐。服務枱的叔叔很親切及細心，入住時會詳細介紹大浴池和房子設備，還送了一支精美的筆給我，謝謝啊。還有，屋子外的可看到日出日落，星星也很美我下次到黑川必再入住（自駕的），很好的體驗：）

It was a really nice stay. It’s a wooden cabin in the hills. Somewhat rustic, laid back. The place is clean and very lovely to stay. Sleeping in the attic was interesting. Had wonderful time using the outdoor grill and also hotpot. Nice indoor private Onsen. The outdoor public onsen is pretty and relaxing to be in. The lady that serves us is friendly and cheerful. I love it.

Cabin in the woods

Cute cabin the mountains. Has private onsen which is very nice and relaxing. You will need a car to get here. There was a supermarket 20 minutes away. You will need your own food as it’s in the middle of no where- but that’s what staying in the mountains is all about!! The owner has a google translator to help with check in. Very comfortable stay.

프라이빗 온천 포함된 숲속의 집

료칸의 느낌이 있는 펜션 같은 코티지인데 개인 온천까지 같이 있어 무척 좋았습니다. 작은 주방도 있어 음식을 해먹기도 좋습니다. 상대적으로 저렴한 가격으로 숲속에서 힐링하는 느낌입니다. 다만 렌트를 하지 않고는 접근하기 힘듭니다. 하지만 그만큼 좋은 자연환경이 기다리고 있습니다. 오두막 근처에 산책하다가 말과 소도 보았는데 아이들이 무척 좋아했습니다. 숙소 주인분들도 무척 친절하십니다. 이번이 두번째 방문인데 첫번째 함께 갔던 엄마와 동생도 두번째 함께 간 남편과 아이들도 모두 만족했던 숙소입니다.
