The room is clean and tidy with Japanese-style tatami mats. There is a toilet and a washbasin in the room.Bathing is in the bathhouse on the lower floor, with a simple soup pool attached.There is a ski drying room and even equipment for ski maintenance.The breakfast and dinner provided every day were delicious. I looked forward to the dishes every day.The owner of the hotel is very kind and can communicate in simple English.You can contact us for pick-up and drop-off on the days of arrival and departure.Although the location is in a relatively peripheral area of ​​Nozawa, in the morning you can actually walk a few steps to the lift or take the shuttle bus for two stops to the longboard area.It’s not too far if you take a slow walk in the evening and go to the lively area.I'm already looking forward to staying again next snow season

Great traditional tatami mat, Japanese futon and rice paper slider rooms.Has great staff that genuinely care and take care of you.You get free breakfast, a hotel onsen, ski racks and dry rooms for your equipment.It's a short 2 minute walk to the first chairlift and you can also ski back down right to the door at the end of the day.Next door to Olive rentals and across the street from a karaage food truck and traditional Japanese restaurant specialising in Okonomiyaki.Something that made our day was when it came time to leave, they offered to drive us to the Nozawa-Iiyama bus station in town so we wouldn't have to walk in the snow. Very very helpful and their hospitality is not something you see very often in other accommodation.Would definitely come back and stay here again in the future.

This is a so-called ordinary guesthouse that has been around for a long time. However, what can I say, I felt a sense of confinement, or rather a gloomy feeling, as if I was doing this because I wanted to run a guest house, and that was quite painful.

The owner and family of the B&B are very friendly and can speak English and Japanese. There is a clothesline, toilet, flush toilet, and heater in the room, which is very convenient for skiers. The breakfast and dinner dishes change every day and the cuisine is great! The bathroom and drying room are both large and can be used for waxing. It is very close to Nakao no Yu, the circulation bus, and the Nozawa Cable Car. It is a highly recommended B&B!

Many mixed reviews on TripAdvisor and here in google. I wasn’t sure what to expect but the price was reasonable and I decided to take my chance. After all, no place can be that bad in Japan. So glad we decided to book with them.Considering its location and the price they charge, this place is amazing. It is about 10-15 minutes walk to the main town. A ski rental shop is 10 steps across the road. One of ski lift is just one big block away. And if you want to go to the ski school, the free bus shuttle is also only a big block away (see map highlighted in green parking lot 2).The owner Sato-San is the nicest guy. It was snowing hard the day we arrived and he personally came picked us up at the bus station. There is onsen right in the facility after the public shower. The place is spotless clean. He helped us make multiple calls to the ski school and nothing was too much to ask for. Breakfast is included and the Japanese white toast is the so soft. Breakfast is typical ja speed breakfast. Often includes rice, miso soup, a small yogurt, milk, juice, egg, and a small piece of fish usually.There is a washing machine for use. Only need to pay 100¥ for detergent. No dryer, but the heater in the room will dry most travel friendly clothes overnight.If you are confused on how to get there, just email them and Sati-San will give you clear English instructions.There are always nicer and bigger places if you want to pay more. But we love the hospitality and our simple tatami room. For what they charge, it’s of great value.Train to Iiyama station, walk outside turn left and you will find a bus station to go to Nozawa. 600¥. Have change ready since bus tickets are sold by machine and does not accept large bills. Please find attached the bus and train schedule. Nakao bus station is the closest.Attached map:Berg Marukaneya highlighter in blue.Ski life and shuttle (parking lot2) highlighted in green.
