Let me talk about the disadvantages first. When we just entered the hotel room, the sewer in the bathroom seemed to be under repair. A strong smell of stinky water came to our noses, so we immediately contacted the repairman to come over. He helped us to tidy it up and left, but I don’t know why this happened inexplicably. Is it the same for all Japanese hotels? Later, I asked the front desk and they said there were no other rooms. We had to turn on the air purifier for most of the day. Fortunately, there was no smell when we slept.
Then, the location is indeed a bit far. We only stayed for one day. There was only a shuttle bus at 9:40 in the morning the next day. For convenience, we told the front desk that we would take this bus to leave the hotel before checking in, but I don’t know if the hotel forgot to make an appointment or register for us. The next morning, we went to check out on time and almost missed the bus back. (Thanks to my friend’s last-minute sprint, the driver waited for us for a while, and then left on time.) It is recommended to stay for at least two days to be more relaxed.
Advantages, the location of the hotel is unique. It is right next to the Shirahige Falls. We can enjoy the scenery of the waterfall in the morning and evening. It should be the best location nearby. Then, the hotel's internal environment is also very unique. The lobby, restaurant, room, and even the elevator are all floor-to-ceiling windows, facing the snowy pine forest outside. My friends and I were very excited when we saw it.
Then, the hotel provides free shuttle buses. There are two buses to the hotel and one to leave. Just get on the bus at Bus Stop No. 1 outside Asahikawa Station, which is very convenient.
Then, the hotel's open-air bath is also great. It is real hot spring water. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to soak again in the morning when I was in a hurry to catch the bus the next day.
Then, I want to praise the hotel's restaurant. We ordered breakfast and dinner. In addition to the common Western Japanese cuisine (all tasted very good), the grilled wagyu and sukiyaki for dinner were also very good.
Finally, the hotel also provides an activity to watch the Qingchi at night (free). After the bus took us to the vicinity, we could see the lights of the Qingchi in a few minutes on foot. We played for 45 minutes on the return trip, and the experience was not bad.
In summary, except for the sewer problem in the room on the first day, the hotel is very good in other aspects. There are not many guests, and the environment is quiet. It is quite suitable as a hot spring hotel for leisure and vacation. I heard that you may encounter little foxes nearby.
