Definitely need to book restaurants in advance if you want to go anywhere to eat.

There was a language barrier with the owner but she was helpful and happy to use google translate to help us! There is a bus stop 30m away that goes to the ski hill so super convenient but otherwise the walk wasn't too bad either.

The stairs were hard after a long day snowboarding haha! But definitely helped keep us fit!!

We loved staying at Fujiyoshi. The warm snow gear room beneath was awesome, and we loved the ‘free corner’ where we enjoyed a delicious apple! The artwork, handmade quilts and old photographs really made it.

It is a shared bathroom, so for westerners, that is a bit of an adjustment, but it's no different than staying at a family's home, and it was super clean. The shower is down in the basement (his and hers). It also is somewhat shared. Since we stayed at a hotel with an onsen, we knew we were supposed to sit on the stool and shower sitting down. The nice part was the water pressure is good and super warm. We tried the japanese style breakfast - it was ready and lovely, but not necessarily what young kids like to eat (semi-hard boiled eggs, salad, yogurt, and bread) with coffee/tea.

Location is fantastic. It's on the shuttle route for the ski resort and walk to town where all the restaurants/bars/stores are located. The staff don't speak English well, but use google translate, so it's never an issue to communicate with them. When we arrived from the bus station, it was a "five" minute walk from the station to their location. It had just snowed feet, so dragging our luggage the last walk more like 10 minutes thru snow was NOT fun. We even had our bag with ski bag shipped there which was waiting for us when we arrived. When we left, we asked about taxi to the bus station. They were SOOOO kind and drove us there with all our luggage which made a huge difference. Location and cost was of great value. We went during high season when many places would not allow you to book for under a week. The ski resort was fabulous too. Cute town with many options for food/drink.

My children (14 and 12) were a bit anxious about the bathing experience but there is a lock on the door for privacy if needed.

Beautifully appointed Japanese tatami rooms, with private toilet and traditional onsen bathing experience. While it was fully booked, we only saw or heard other guests in the ski drying room. Overall, a lovely experience.

The property description stated free parking, but it wasn’t. There is a large parking lot in front of the property and it cost us 2000 yen for 2 days. The room heater shuts off after 8 hours, and when it shuts off it makes loud beeping sounds in the middle of the night.

We loved how cozy the property was. We didn’t know when we booked the property but the fire festival is held right in front of the property which is super cool. We watched the preparations from the property. There were traditional Japanese tatami mat rooms. It was our first time. The traditional breakfast (1500 yen extra) was delicious. The property’s onsen had hot spring water and it was clean. Wonderful staff! Super kind and helpful. The distance into the center of town was reasonable and not a far walk at all. The free skiing shuttle bus is super close to the property.

Stayed in the twin room with nice shower but a bit basic overall No sink in the bathroom so needed to go into the shower to clean teeth etc. The beds were very hard. No elevator which made it difficult to get heavy bags and ski gear up and down 3 flights of stairs. No food/breakfast service available. Whilst they had a small public bath, there was no onsen. Whilst it’s close to the fire festival grounds and a shuttle bus stop, it’s a bit of a walk up the hill into town. overall it was ok if you are struggling to find accommodation but a bit overpriced given the location, no breakfast, no onsen etc

Comfortable clean room with nice new shower. Clean and convenient ski drying room downstairs Easy check in with friendly owner. In a quiet part of town.

The water from the sink in our bedroom was cold water only. This was not the most pleasant experience when washing hands. For warm water, we had to go down the hall to the shared washroom, which is where we ended up washing our face and brushing our teeth. The hours for the shower facilities are 4pm-10pm, which meant not showering the morning of a long day flying back home.

The room was clean and spacious enough for all our ski clothing, including a small drying rack for wet neck ups and the included scrubbing towel. Towels were changed out daily and trash was emptied daily. Inside the room was a long wall of well spaced hooks to hang coats and towels. There's also a small bathroom with a toilet and sink inside the room, which was convenient. Often places in Japan have shared bathrooms so a private toilet was nice. The ski storage room had entrances both inside and outside the building. And the ski shuttle stop was just a few steps outside the door. There were also free apples available everyday and these were delicious!

It’s far from the ski resort; the Japanese tub was old, small and somewhat cold.

It was clean and the staff was really friendly.

We had difficulty communicating with our host to reserve a regular breakfast each morning. She apologised sincerely for not meeting our request.

The scrambled eggs and toast were good with a variety of breads to choose from.

Maybe a traditional pillow and some extra sheets (for pillow and bed) would have made for a cleaner feeling experience. The comforters looked well used - some additional fabric for the comforter and mattress would have been appreciated. The shower is co-located with the bath/onsen, which is hour restricted to the afternoon with requests for the morning available. I ended up using a separate hot spring for showing.

Very friendly service and location/access to the ski resort was great.
