“Enjoyable Stay”
Like it that it’s close to everything, it has parking space (with extra cost) and there’s a ramen shop below (no smell or noise from the restaurant). It’s spacious and kids like the bunk beds.

“Lovely clean character accommodation in a great location.”
This was a great place to stay in Otaru. There were three bedrooms and one bathroom, but the bathroom had a separate toilet and wash basin so it worked well. Bedroom 1 has sleeping for 2 on a double bunk. Bedroom 2 had sleeping for 3 on three single beds with a raised platform, and Bedroom 3 had 2 single beds on tatami floor. Plenty of towels, pyjamas and amenities were provided. It was great to have a well equipped kitchen with a good sized fridge and cooking facilities. The area was very quiet, and we all slept well. Everything was clean and well maintained. We would not hesitate to stay here again.

“Nice and cozy apartment, with great ramen available just below.”
It was a nice cozy apartment, well-heated with plenty of facilities like washing machine, utensils, towels, etc. The hosts, based in the excellent ramen restaurant below, were also super nice.

“The room is unique”
The room is on the 2nd floor, the entire floor of the ramen shop. But there is no disturbing smell. Not far to walk to Otaru canal and other tourist attractions.

The property was clean, well-maintained, and had everything we needed! The location was great too, a short distance from the Otaru canal and Sakaimachidori.

“This is the last day of our vacation, but ended with a not very good experience.”
The location is good, and can have parking, although need to pay (but if the customer drive to eat ramen, the car park is free). The price is compatible for the location
