The owner and his wife were very kind! He told me that the Milky Way looked beautiful, and he even took a photo of the two of us, including us, with a digital camera! They were very friendly and talked to me, which made my trip very fulfilling. The inn is clean and equipped with showers, making it a perfect place to stay! You should consider this when sightseeing in Shiretoko!

This is my first time traveling around Hokkaido, and the owner is very kind, and even when we were eating and drinking in the lobby, he spoke kindly to us.Through communication, people took free photos of the starry night sky and sent them to LINE.I believe that they are communicating with other users as well, and that they are providing excellent support to people other than themselves.I would definitely like to use it again when I come to Shiretoko.

It was my first time staying at YH, and I was able to spend a comfortable time with the best hospitality, clean living room, and utilities!Work took longer than I expected, so I had to check in after dark, but I thoroughly enjoyed the "starry sky" - other customers were also enjoying the conversation with the owner, and the restaurant was open until 9:00 p.m. The town-run hot springs were also recommended, but since it was after 7:00 p.m., we declined to go.However, if you wish, you can be taken to the JR station, which is amazing.If you wish, you can also take pictures with a DRONE. As you can request, it is an inn where you can make memories of your trip with the spectacular view of Mt. Shari in the background. <(_ _)>

My flight was canceled and I called to cancel my reservation on the same day, but they were very accommodating. If I have a chance, I will stay here again.

I used it to see Kaminoko Pond.As I was traveling by bicycle, I was feeling depressed due to the rain and wind, but I was greeted warmly by the staff.There is a charge for laundry, but I am grateful to be able to use it.Also, although I have forgotten the name of the station, we will take you to the nearest station and nearby restaurants.Personally, I didn't have any negative impressions like those written in the reviews of people who gave low ratings.This time, thank you very much.

Too far away, and extremely too noisy! The owner didn’t help me but asks me to sleep outside ! It was too cold and I almost die! I paid the money but no room to sleep!And I lost my Sony Bluetooth earphone! It was been stolen! And no one helped ! It is very dangerous for your life and money and personal item!

Although the living environment of the building is acceptable, I am disappointed in the idea of charging a separate collection fee for lunch box trash. It wasn't a huge amount, but I had never heard of an inn with such a policy, even overseas, so I was just stunned...Please note that there is only one shower and the hot water is weak and is not available 24 hours a day.The people at the hostel seemed very businesslike and not very friendly, so it might be necessary to make some adjustments.However, it is not good for people who want to sleep on a cheap and warm futon, and want to eat out in town and go to a hot spring at the same time. I also thought it was an inn.

People who are used to hotels and apartments may be reluctant.A 4 ton truck was parked.It's located far away from the city, so there's nothing around. The host will take you to the restaurant.The nearby hot spring facilities were nice.When I looked out the window at the inn, I saw a pet goat walking.My sister is playing Heidi.If you walk a little bit, you will be able to experience the vastness of the land.I couldn't see it because it was cloudy when I was there, but the starry sky seems to be beautiful. I wanted to look at the stars on the rental starry sky chair.

The perfect location where you can see Mt. Shari from the window. The room was clean, they took us to dinner and the hot springs, and it was a very reasonable and comfortable youth hostel ❤
