This was the most magical onsen I’ve ever been to. Pretty remote and difficult to get to if relying on public transport/taxis, however once you get there it’s so warm, inviting, and luxurious. The onsen baths are a mix of separate genders (mostly inside) baths, but also a spectacular outside onsen for mixed genders; the staff at reception will give you a covering garment for this. The dinner and breakfasts were truly delicious and filling but we enjoyed dining in the provided yukatas. The real draw of this place however is the birdwatching opportunities. The main lobby boasts a huge window to a bird garden which is teeming with various species. There is an owl that often visits and perches right outside the window. The staff can also call your room during the night if it appears and you’re desperate to see it!

Full self-service hotel, so there is some trouble in Checkin because I didn't pay attention to the email, but fortunately, I can contact the staff remotely. Please be sure to pay attention to the message sent by the hotel in advance. The hotel itself is very fashionable, the container is changed, the car is parked at the door, and there is a convenience store across the road. The room equipment is OK, the heating is strengthened, and it looks like it will not be cold in winter.

I made a mistake and booked a smoking room, and I entered the room on the day, but I couldn't stand the smell, so I immediately called the front desk and asked for a change if the non-smoking room was vacant. We responded immediately. Thank you. This hotel is a business hotel of the type like an inn where you can take off your shoes at the entrance. The front desk will wipe the caster of the suitcase. The room also has a bathtub and shower, but there is also a hot spring. The rooms are clean and well cleaned. However, when the outlet was subtle and the air purifier line was touched, I had to be careful not to get caught in the line. It was good that the room clothes were like samue and easy to wear. The toilet was new. I didn't use the shower, but since the washbasin is a business hotel, I think any type is the same usability. The dressing room is clean. The washing area is about 5 people. It's not that big, but it was very good with high temperature (42 degrees) and low temperature (38 degrees) inside and medium temperature (40 degrees) in the open-air bath. There was also a sauna. It was a pity that I couldn't use it in time. Breakfast was 1100 yen (until 22:00, from 7:00 in the morning). It was quite cheap and delicious from the content. Free coffee is placed at the rest area on the way to the hot spring. I think it's only in the morning. It was a very good hotel.

This hotel uses a self-check-in system with no staff on site, which was a bit confusing. It took me a while to find the hotel's password in my email, and then I had to take a self-photo to get the room key. For someone in a hurry like me, it was quite frustrating. The shared bathroom and shower were also unexpected, though thankfully clean. However, I'm not used to public showers, so I didn't shower that day and just went to bed. It was an okay one-night stopover in Nakashibetsu.

This guesthouse has a wonderful location. We could hear birds singing from the forest behind it. The facilities and amenities are minimal, but if you accept that, it's perfectly fine (a hairdryer would have been a nice touch). The home-style breakfast was delicious. The dining room had a fireplace, which was lovely. We were able to take a nice hot bath, and above all, it was inexpensive, so we were very satisfied.
