観光スポットまで徒歩圏内の住宅地にあります。坂の上なので荷物を持っての移動はやや大変です。札幌や新千歳空港行きのバス停は近いので電車よりバス移動がお勧めです。半個室のミックスドミトリーを利用しましたが一番奥のベッドで他より狭く照明のスイッチがベッドを超えた奥にしかないなど若干不便でした。インテリアなどは独特で物が多いのにまとまりがあって雰囲気は良かったです。

I wasn’t exactly thrilled with the idea of a shared bathroom but the description of the facilities and furnishings intrigued me. When I checked in at Little Barrel I was immediately enthralled by the uniqueness of the decorations. It was indeed a pleasure to stay here and the numerous photos I took of the place can attest to that. And the shared bathrooms that I was so concerned about? It didn’t turn out to be a problem at all. The common bathrooms are maintained at a very high level of cleanliness and equipped with the latest toilet features. So if like me, you are interested in staying in esoteric places you can give Little Barrel a try!

民宿古色古香,很有歐洲鄉村風格,很溫馨特別。房間乾淨溫馨,衛浴是共同使用,但也都很乾淨。入住第二晚因為較晚回民宿,櫃檯人員正準備離開,看我們在門前駐足了一會兒,還特別回過來確認我們是不是知道怎麼進門,非常貼心。希望下次還有機會來這裡感受小樽的冬天😊

도미토리에 묵었고요 대만족 했습니다 침대 푹신하고 시트 깔끔하고 공용주방도 편리해서 좋아요 여성샤워실도 깔끔함(개별칸 있어서 남한테 알몸공개 안해도 됨) 응대해주시는 직원분도 친절하세요 하루 묵었는데 다소 집처럼 느껴짐

You can hear footsteps, voices, and doors opening and closing, so it may be difficult for families with small children, but it was a very pleasant inn for adults to stay at. The shower room was small, but nicely appointed and had plenty of water pressure, so I was satisfied.
