Hotel 2-Star di Iwate Prefecture, Japan

I stayed at this place during my hike through the Michinoku coastal trail. This is a good choice before you attempt Kurosakiso and Kitayamazaki coast. This can be reached easily from Horinai station. Cross the big bridge and walk a bit more, you can see the sign to the left. The hotel has nice indoor and outdoor onsen. Many locals come here to use the onsen. They probably have annual or life membership to use the onsen. It is a nice opportunity to chat with some of them. When I was there, it was raining and hence I could not enjoy the view, however, using onsen after hiking in the rain was quite relaxing. On a clear day, the ocean can be seen from the room window. Dinner can be ordered and is quite good at a reasonable price. The next day, the hotel shuttle dropped me to the train station which was quite nice, I did not have to walk in rain.

Ideal place to rest after hiking to Kurasakiso. The Japanese style room is clean, neat and faces the ocean. Light house and ocean can be seen from the room window. The light house, 40deg North symbolic monument, the Kurosaki bay view point are all at a walking distance. The in house restaurant provides dinner and breakfast. I do not eat meat or other seafood except fish, therefore it was a bit difficult for them to manage my needs. But the breakfast compensated for my dinner challenges. I liked the breakfast as there were plenty of varieties of items to choose from. The onsen also faces the ocean and is quite good. After a demanding hiking, onsen dinner and cold beer made my night enjoyable and relaxing. This is a very good place to stay, I highly recommend it.

Self-driving car ありで utilization. Parking lot は no material. It is a small hotel, but there are a number of rooms or more parking lots, so it seems that you cannot park your car. A system where you can give a card key at check-in and put it in a box when you go out and leave it as it is. You don't need to leave it at the front desk when you go out. Simple but no trouble. It is a little far from the nearest Ichinoseki station and the downtown area in front of the station (?), but it is a distance that cannot be walked. Is it a little closer from the east exit? It seems to be within the taxi first ride fare range. There are seven eleven and drug stores (food super type goods) within 3 minutes walk of the inn, and there is no particular inconvenience in shopping. The room doesn't feel that big, but it has everything you need to stay as a business and it's a good impression. There is no particular concern about beds and bedding. WIFI speed is no problem, and the sound of other rooms is not particularly heard and comfortable. Best environment if you don't ask for excessive service. Free breakfast is a system that takes bread, small bowls, yogurt (Danon), and beverages by yourself. It's simple, but if you don't need ”guts from the morning!”, you can even feel that it's just right. The price is the lowest among the hotels near ichinoseki station, and there is no shortage of service if it is a business use with a car. I think it will be a good choice for those who do not ask for extra service for accommodation. Personally I was able to stay comfortably.

The B&B is very close to Appi Plateau and provides ski pick-up and drop-off services. At the same time, other employees are also asked to take care of the pick-up and drop-off, so there is no problem for the B&B to go to the ski resort for easy skiing. The more problematic thing is how to get to the B&B. If you need to take a bus to get your ski equipment, it is quite a distance from the bus station to the B&B. It would be difficult to push your luggage for 20 minutes in the snow. If you ask the B&B owner to pick you up at the JR station, you will need to call to communicate, and there are pick-up time restrictions. The website does not explain this clearly. In addition, the communication between trip.com and the B&B is not very smooth. You have to confirm your accommodation by phone in person. The owner is also a chef, so he doesn't reply to emails very often. Trip.com AI online customer service cannot help. I think it would be ideal to drive here by yourself. I had a good breakfast and was ready to go skiing. But dinner is very simple and may be a bit full for some people. The B&B provides discounted ski tickets and ski equipment. Overall, I would be willing to stay at this B&B again if the problem of getting to the B&B can be solved.

This time I booked Arts Color, but I actually lived in the main building of the boss's other restaurant Life is Beautful( It should be called Beautiful Life~), the homestay is about10-15 minutes walk from Anbi Ski Resort & Bailu Hot Spring, not too far away, the key homestay dinner seems simple, but super delicious, there is a French restaurant standard, In the morning 8-9 o'clock & afternoon 16-17 there is a free welcome (Anbi Station or Anbi Ski Resort), B1 there is a loan cut wind, just like the size of Yangming Mountain's personal hot spring, but it is really relaxing to soak after skiing the snow. There is also a beautiful and atmospheric API House bread cafe opposite the hotel. There is a ROCKY BBQ restaurant next door. On this night in the countryside, such a store has been counted a lot, because there is really no nightlife here at this night. You can consider going to the Bailu Hot Spring for a soup (open until 23:00). This is a personal trip. The cost of one berth and two meals is NT2100/day. I think it is very good value, it is recommended, I hope that I can visit again not too long.

Very satisfied with the service provided by ホテルきくゆう, the room is well equipped and provides wireless network (WiFi), the bathroom provides toiletries (towels and shampoo, shower gel), the daily meals are attentive and delicious, the boss and the proprietress are amiable, for foreign passengers who have just arrived in Japan. Can immediately feel at ease. The hotel is in a good location, the train station is next to it, and the bus station in front of the station has almost every route, and can reach various places in the city of Farno. The sightseeing association is nearby, it is convenient to ask about travel and car information nearby, and you can wait for your trip slowly without hurry. Thank you for your help during my stay. I will visit again next time I go to Farno.

Номер просторный, есть стол со стульями плюс ещё 2 стула. Шкафчик, холодильник. Сейфа нет. Занавески пропускают свет, мешает спать. Чисто, но на стуле были забыты рабочие перчатки. Сам отель симпатичный – картины, фигурки. Хозяйка по-английски не говорит, но использует переводчик. Очень любезная и приветливая. Ужин и завтрак сытные (не шведский стол), но не очень понравился китайский ямс. Также не хватало десерта. По желанию можно сфотографироваться с изображениями персонажей из аниме «Haikyu!!», есть уголок с мангой. В 6 утра на улице заиграла какая-то музыка по всему поселению, для кого-то может быть критично. Было лето, поэтому в холле встречались жуки, но в номере насекомых не было. В целом – впечатление хорошее, останавливаться можно.

The hotel is very close to the station. It’s a bit old and the rooms are very small but it’s convenient and fine for sleeping and taking a shower.

For the price, this was very acceptable standard. Free breakfast and curry dinner. Has public baths should you want it. Huge comic book library if you can read Japanese. Around corner from jr Station or parking in front of hotel for small fee. Rooms were small but adequate. Very quiet.
