The best place ever!!!
This was the best place I stayed at in Japan. Host is very helpful, friendly, considerate and speaks very good English. I felt like it was my home after the first 24 hours. If you are a cat lover this is the place for you, but if you are not, that is fine too as the cats can be kept away from the accommodation. My daughter has an allergy to cats but this posed no problem at all. The place is decorated beautifully and is as clean and modern as any place you will ever find. The Japanese are very clean-living people but this place was at the next level. Immaculate!! We were helped with our daily activities and having someone speak Japanese making inquiries on our behalf with local business makes life so easy if you do not speak Japanese. The other great thing about this place it was so easy to mingle with other travellers as the atmosphere just lends itself to that sort of socialising. You are also well away from the tourist areas. we did one day of skiing as the Shinkansen (bullet train) is easy to get to and cuts travelling time down to nothing. It was just the best place in every single way!

The hostel is very comfy, with a warm and inviting atmosphere. The owner is extremely friendly and helpful. The cats are super cute! And the bed was really comfortable - enough that I wish I had a bed and, sheets and comforter like that. It is a little distant from the Niigata city center, but still very easily accessible. ...also, if the weather is clear, there are beautiful views out the window

Nice Guesthouse atmosphere
This Guesthouse is surrounded by natural environment and traditional Japanese village. You can breathe fragant smell from trees & flowers, enjoy birds' song, taste the ocean wind along the beach. By t way, House owner can play piano and the house was decorated in an artistic with cat style as they're also cat lovers.

全てにおいて素晴らしいのですが、タオルの柔軟仕上げ剤の匂いがキツイのが残念でした。私は柔軟仕上げ剤でかぶれそうになるので、そこだけ改善していただいたら嬉しいです。 施設も、そしてオーナーさんのホスピタリティあふれるおもてなしに脱帽です。猫ちゃんも本当に可愛くて、皆さんにお会いできて、幸せだなあと思いました。本当にありがとうございました。

このたびはご宿泊、ならびに身に余る高評価とあたたかいコメントありがとうございました。タオルの柔軟剤、大変申し訳ございませんでした。今回かぶれてはいらっしゃらないでしょうか? これまではタオルの香りがよかった、というお声を多々いただいておりましたが、こういうお声もあることもわかり、大変勉強になりました。おっしゃってくださりありがとうございました。シーツは大丈夫でしたでしょうか?同じ柔軟剤を使っておりますが、洗濯機の種類が異なり、タオルの方は柔軟剤の濃度が濃く出てしまったのかもしれません。タオルの方の洗濯機は柔軟剤を薄めて使うようになっておりますが、今後はもっと薄めて洗濯していきます。シャワー上がりの気持ちのよいはずの時に、不快な思いをさせてしまい、本当に申し訳ございませんでした。他はご満足いただけたようで、ホッとしております。猫もかわいがってくださってありがとうございました。
