This is a quirky little place with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The owner was very welcoming and provided special mochi as we were staying on a festival day. Shared bathroom and toilet, clean and the water was hot! Comfortable beds and a quiet location. We enjoyed our stay, parking available. Our room was up some very steep stairs .. if this is a problem for you enquire before booking.

　急遽糸魚川に宿泊することになり、駅前のビジホが一杯で、こちらを利用。相部屋にはしない方針、とのことで、ゆったり一部屋使わせていただきました。 　現地払いで、現金希望。カードも使えるようだが、そういわれたら現金で払うしかない。お風呂とトイレは共用。どうも二部屋しかないようなので、お風呂は声をかけてから使用。wifiはアドレスが二つ提供されているが、一つは使えない。もう一つはカフェのもののようで、夜中すぎると使えない。オーナーさんが寝ている間は使えない？ 　長期滞在だと洗濯機もあるので便利かも。ビジホがなくて、という今回の場合は価格がビジホと変わりがなく、バス・トイレ共用（それほど困らなかった）、wifiが使えない（不便）、朝食なし、なので、ビジホのほうがいいかな。

実家は東京ですが、色々と充実しており、1泊でしたが、大変満足な旅となりました。朝食も気を使っていただき大満足でした。オーナーさんの素晴らしい事。ワンコと猫を連れて行きましたが、不具合なく過ごせました。トイレシーツは忘れずにお持ち下さい。又、機会がありましたら、こちらに宿泊致します。ありがとうございました😃

楽しみ本線、日本海

９月２３日の土曜日に１泊しました。オーナーの女将さんが、非常に感じが良くてチェックイン時にはほっとしました。またこの女将さんは英語が堪能で驚きました。この日はデンマークの親子とドイツからの男性と朝食が一緒でした。私も英語は得意なのでたくさん会話を楽しむことができました。とりわけ、朝食は品数が非常に豊富で感動しました。近くにマリンドリームという日本海のカニが非常に安く食べられるので、１度は行く価値が非常に高いと思います。さらに近くの国道８号線沿いの海岸道路は立地条件がとてもよく、車窓からの景色はamaizing と言うより他ありません。

古い通りに面した情緒ある宿

糸魚川駅から徒歩圏にあります。カテゴリーは民泊というか民宿というカテゴリーにあります。食器やオーブン、冷蔵庫のついている部屋があり今回はそちらを利用できました。洗濯機、乾燥機もあり便利に使わせていただきました。レストラン＆CAFEが１階にあって食事は朝も夜も頼めば利用できます。朝食を頼みましたがフルブレックファストと記載がありましたがその通りです。 建物は古いこと、部屋の快適度はホテルをイメージしすぎると期待に合わないかも知れません。普通です。 道路に面していますが交通量は少なく静かで全体的に快適な時間を過ごせると思います。また利用したいと思います。
