Cleanliness: Like most Japanese hotel, this hotel is very clean.
Location: It is about 3 minutes walk from the JR Karuizawa station. However, it is at a very quiet side of Karuizawa with almost no activity at all. There is a car rental shop diagonally across the street and it is besides many bus stops making sight-seeing convenient.
Rooms: The room is very small with a sofa and old furniture. Despite the small size and the old decoration, it has everything that you need. During winter months, the heater in the room is on which can cause the room to be rather warm.
Service: Service is good at the front-desk but some staff are unable to communicate in English. But overall, we are satisfied with the service.
Value: We stayed during the off-peak season and thus we got the room at very good rate. There is free internet access in the room. Overall very good value considering that accomodation in Karuizawa is generally expensive (there are other affordable ones but they are too far away from the train station).
