Really great hostel! The common areas and bathrooms were very clean, the room was really spacious and the mattresses were comfortable. We got a great view of mt fuji as well.
Only complaint would be the heavy smell of cigarette smoke, likely from the previous occupants

This was a cosy, comfy stay for 1 night. Although the owner couldn't speak English, and I can't speak proficient Japanese, the communication worked with the help of translation apps. Although it was snowing outside, the heating in the room warmed us up quickly. Note to say that the walls are quite thin, as you'd expect in a traditionally built Japanese building, so you can for sure hear other guests snoring. Didn't bother me at all though. Was a nice stay.

Nice house. It's on a major street, but the cars didn't wake us. Everything is 10 minutes walk away.

Definitely Stay Here Again
Breakfast was amazing. The staff was extremely helpful and welcoming.
We enjoyed the game room, playing pool and throwing darts.
Beautifully located by the lake, our room had a wonderful view of Lake Kawaguchi from our spacious traditional Japanese room.
The hotel has a morning shuttle to the train station, however the hotel was an easy 15 min walk from the station, Fuji Ropeway, and grocery store.
Coin Laundry was available in the hotel and they provided detergent.

It's close to the pagoda and there's a grocery store just across the street.
The floors really creaked so felt bad making noise leaving early in the morning. Make sure you check your email because that's where you get the information for check in. There was no one at the property to help with that when we arrived. They offered free parking but since no one is there when you arrive it's unclear where you're to park.
