peaceful
Our corner room had a great view. The heating system and hot shower were very good compared to other old cottages I have stayed in before. Usually, winter houses are quite old, but the heating system here worked very well. There is a pick-up and drop-off service available, but you have to pay extra.
The only thing I would say this place needs is better cleaning — the common room floor and showers were not clean. our room was very clean though. common places were not.

The owner was awesome. Real nice guy. The property was older but well priced and everything worked.
Good location and was fairly priced.
Bathroom was a little dirty. Could use a deeper clean.

Disappointed in the overall stay at what should be holding higher standards for its guests.
The property and building itself is an old tradition house that has a lot of potential.
Communal lounge, and kitchen were large enough to accommodate all guests.
Rooms spacious
We were incredibly disappointed at the overall lack of care, cleanliness and quality of the house. It should be “hostel” rather than “chalet Myoko” to bring down expectations.
The kitchen was tidy however it was dirty and didn’t appear to receive proper cleaning. Guests are expected to clean up after themselves, which they do but that does not mean further cleaning should not be completed daily. The dish brushes, cloths and surfaces were filthy, it seemed safer not to use these provided items.
Floors in communal areas including bathrooms and bedrooms not properly vacuumed. We saw a small robot vacuum cleaner around the living room.
The bathrooms were the worst part of the stay. 2 toilet/shower bathrooms for the entire house that were never cleaned during our 3 days. Floor mats, hand towels not changed. Bathroom sinks covered in hair and other debris for days without being cleaned.
Toilet seat covered in urine stains. Showers with grime and yellow stains throughout.
What was the most disappointing was the owner was on site during our stay and had complained more about being responsible for the running of the facility this winter. If he cannot provide a clean and well run “chalet” how do you expect others to do the same. He was very persistent about separating rubbish etc but seemed to overlook the overall place being run down and filthy which was really disappointing.
His attitude made it feel as though we were all an inconvenience to him for arriving and staying there, this was also felt by other guests.
If you do not have a car, this probably isn’t the location for you. Nothing in walking distance and the price to have the owner drive you short distances is excessive (1,000yen per one way trip, per guest) although this is similar to the public bus. We were prepared for this and knew we were required to be fully self cater but others were not.

Extremely enjoyable, highly recommended!
Really charming little spot, warm and tidy!
Slightly off the beaten track but more than made up for with easy directions and Michael being amazing help!

We didn't have meals at the property, but both of the hosts were very accommodating and friendly. They went above and beyond to fulfill my family's requests. We had requested a bassinet/cot but were informed that it wasn’t available at the property. However, we were pleasantly surprised when we checked in, as the host had gone out of their way to borrow a cot from another lodge. We were very grateful for their effort in making our stay more comfortable.
The property was far enough from the town centre, but it was a bit too far from food and convenience stores. The bus stop was a good 5-minute walk away, though with limited services. We also found there were no available taxis due to a shortage of drivers, as we were informed by a local. As a result, we had to walk +20 minutes to and from the city centre with an infant, which wasn't ideal. Had we known this in advance, we likely would have hired a car for more convenience.
