Cosy and warm but expensive at peak time for basic accommodation far away from services.

6.0

The couple that run the accommodation are very sweet, helpful and happy to drive us around. The heating was good and it was very warm and cosy.

As we were there at peak time for skiing, we paid a LOT of money for what is really VERY BASIC accommodation that is not well serviced. As there is no food apart from a basic breakfast (extra cost) available at the property, you have to go out to eat and there's very little around to walk to, you really need a car. There's no kitchen facilities for guests apart from hot water from a machine and a shared fridge, so nowhere to assemble a meal or crockery or utensils to use. There is no shower in the hostel and you have to use the onsen over the road, which some guests might not be comfortable with, although we quite liked.

The hosts were absolutely charming. However, getting a good night's sleep was next to impossible.

6.0

The couple running the pension were super nice and hospitable. The onsen across the street was warm and a great touch after skiing. The wi-fi worked quite well. There was a common room which was good to get out of the room. It was walking distance to restaurants.

The beds were so uncomfortable. There was no shower in the actual pension. You had to go across the street to the onsen to clean up. The walls were thin enough to hear someone snoring in the room next door. Also, you can hear exactly when everyone wakes up (around 7 for breakfast) as the doors slam and the floors creak.

This place is super cute and the location is great. The hosts are maybe the nicest people you'll ever meet. So helpful and gracious. I'd happily stay here again

Everything is a little dated though still clean. The showers across the street in the onsen isn't ideal but it works fine. Onsen could use some love

clean, comfortable, good location for Myoko Kogen

10.0

My sister and I went to Myoko Kogen for a ski week. We stayed at this Pension. Papa was so generous to pick us up at the train station and return us at the end of our trip. He was also really good about helping us to the 2 neighboring ski resorts. I will say if you want to ski Seki or resorts outside of town, he unfortunately doesn't have time. The bus system wasn't working either. The breakfast was standard, good for the value and prompt. The location was walking distance to places to eat and a bus stop. The hosts were extremely kind.

Pension was perfect for what we were looking for. I didn't like that the bus system that was suppose to be available, was indeed not and we got stuck skiing the local resorts only. That has no reflection on Papa's experience, just general to the area. If I go back, I would definitely stay there again.
