The male toilet had a very bad smell as if the drainage wasnt working, was pretty gross every time to.use the toilet to smell it. Other than that its a great place to.stay ##### Dean Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wai Wan Oct 11, 2023 Liked: Property conditions & facilities I arrived to Happy Talk before the check in time so I dropped off my luggage around 12:30pm. I was in a hurry to get to Happo-ike pond by the cable car. At the end, the own drove me from Happy Talk to the Happo Gondola station so I could start hiking ASAP. That's very kind of him to do that 👍👏😊. His wife offered me an apple as a snack the following day. Yes, Happy Talk is a bit outdated but I was treated kindly. I would recommend this place to everyone. ##### Wai Wan Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Blair Jan 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Kind Owner I missed the shuttle to the ski resort and the owner was kind enough to drive me personally. ##### Blair Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### あつひろ Jan 3, 2025 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 都市街に住む者にとっては温泉までは雨でも雪でも歩かなければならないのは、想像より負担が大きい。シャワーで済ますという人にはこの上なく良い宿だと思う。 オーナーさんは良い人だし、ケトル・電子レンジが使えるというのもありがたい。総合では☆４です。ありがとうございました。 ##### あつひろ Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### ヒロシ Mar 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service 宿の人がすごく良い人で、また泊まりに行きたいと思います。 ##### ヒロシ Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### かずえ Mar 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 一人旅だったがオーナーが親切で旅の不安がなくなった。 比較的、古い建物だと思いますが、施設は清潔で古さを感じさせず、快適だった。 ##### かずえ Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Jarred Feb 16, 2024 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities The owners were lovely. Made an effort to chat and help out during the stay. The room size was also great for Japan, featuring two single beds and a couch (I was travelling solo). Unfortunately, the thing that will stop me from ever going back was the smell. There was a broken urinal in the men's bathroom and it made the entire place smell horrendously. I went to the supermarket to buy a big can of deodorant to use every time I walked through the place. Sadly no amount would fix the bathroom though. The place is very old and consequently it just doesn't feel clean at all. Hakuba itself is very spread out. The bus stops are all over the place, the timing is highly irregular and missing the one or two close stops means a 10-15 minute walk to the other ones. Make sure you get your hands on both of the bus schedules. Took a couple days to understand this. ##### Jarred Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Kyle Jan 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Excellent location quiet, close to the shuttle bus ##### Kyle Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tatu Jan 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Amenities The accomodation was perfect for a solo ski trip to hakuba. The location is alright, a shuttle bus bound for happo one leaves right next door. Most restaurants and convenience stores are within a 1km walking distance. The room was clean and comfy, although a bit old. Shared toilets bathrooms. Hosts were really kind and helpful. Be prepared to reserve time to find restaurants in the evening especially in Jan/Feb. Most restaurants were fully booked for a week in advance and walk in restaurants had long queues ##### Tatu Stayed 10 nights in Jan 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Sarah Mar 7, 2023 Liked: Staff & service For the price it was perfect. Close to the free bus stops and main bus loop.
