Wei and Bunny are are incredibly friendly, helpful and accommodating hosts. Wei was generous enough to provide a pickup from the JR Hakuba train station and drop off upon checkout. Really great location as it is within 15min walking distance to the nearby Escal Plaza Goryu ski resort. There is also a convenient shuttle bus stop right outside to take you to the Escal Plaza Goryu ski resort. The room and bathroom were very clean. There is a nice open dining/bar area where you can eat and relax. It was a really nice cosy and comfortable place to say. Would highly recommend!

Overall this is a nice place if you want to ski/snowboard at the nearest resorts. The hotel location is nice, 15 minutes by walk to the ski resort or by bus shuttle (the stop is just near the hotel). There is a room for skiing/snowboards and for drying clothes (and there is a small clothes dryer in the room too). Breakfast is tasty, and coffee/tea is available for 24 hours in the kitchen area. Friendly and nice staff, when checking out - they suggest a free car transfer to the nearest but stop (very useful if you have luggage). Free Wi-Fi is available. Also, there is a smoking area on the terrace.

The sound isolation is not so good, you can hear people from other rooms. Hot water is not always available (in our case - not an issue, 10 am - 3 pm time when no hot water and we were absent at this time). Overall room is clean, but you can notice small spots somewhere, and there is mold at the window.

Breakfast was great. The hosts were incredibly nice. Wei and his wife were super friendly.

I wish they could sell more food at the lodge because it can be difficult to get to the convenience store if it's snowing or raining.
