I always take care of you when I go skiing in Nozawa. You will be welcomed by a friendly host and his smiling wife. It's a very comfortable inn. It is conveniently located within a reasonable distance from both the Nagasaka Gondola and the hot spring town.

The inn is located a little before the ski slopes, up a narrow path next to Oyu.Anyway, the inn was warm and there seemed to be some regulars, but I was happy to see that they treated us just as kindly as we were visiting for the first time.The slopes and hot spring town are both a 4.5 minute walk from the inn, so I was able to explore a lot on foot. Since the inn does not have a hot spring, I took a walk to Furusato no Yu and enjoyed the hot spring. (You can get discount tickets at Yamaya Sanso)Although the toilet and sink are shared, it is very clean and comfortable.The food was seasoned just right and was very delicious! It was just the right amount to eat around the hot spring town after the meal 😋The apples served with the meal were so delicious! ! I would like to stay here again next year when I go to Nozawa Onsen.

It's a short walk from Nagasaka Gondola, which is very convenient for renting gondolas around the area. The food is delicious, and the rooms, toilets, and bathrooms are clean. I felt that the people at the hostel were very friendly.
