    I stayed in this nice hotel for 3 days. Truly enjoyed its beautiful location close enough to the bus station, and Lake Towada or Oirase. Immaculately clean room. Everyone was excellent. No complaints whatsoever, the venue met requirements.

    Great value for the money, comfortable room with 100% cotton bed sheets. The location was perfect, just a short walk to Towada Lake for hiking. The staff at the hotel were incredibly kind and helpful throughout my stay.

    The breakfast could be improved with more variety. It was simply toast and cereal, and once the cereal ran out, there were no refills available.

    The bed was clean and comfortable, which was definitely a plus after a long day of exploring. The location was great, being close to the lake and other attractions in the area. I also appreciated having access to a washing machine, as it allowed me to freshen up my clothes during my stay.

    My main issue was with the lack of cleanliness in the kitchen and bathrooms. Both areas were quite dirty and in need of a thorough cleaning.

    The staff were super chill and made us feel like part of the backpacker fam. We got to do so many sick activities, like horse riding and hiking in the beautiful Towada region. The location was perfect too, with the lake and convenience store just a hop, skip, and jump away. We're definitely coming back!

    The one thing we wished for was a sick party vibe. Don't get us wrong, the atmosphere was great, but we were hoping for a bit more of a party scene with some late-night fun.
