Really nice little guesthouse near to the Cable Car, has an amazing roof top terrace and social area below the house and a nice coffee shop next door

At booking, I had made a mistake in dates and asked for a small change but was refused, thus losing a night’s payment of about £70. When l stayed at the property, l was alone most of the time, so l know that the change of dates l had asked for could have easily been accommodated. When in Japan, it was extremely difficult to reach the property on the phone. I had to seek assistance from Expedia on every step. At the property itself, no maintenance whatsoever — garbage was not picked up a single time during my week-long stay. With the exception of a staff member called Yogi who tried to be nice,, the rest was disappointing. Expedia should not be promoting this place.

お風呂は使えません。ビリヤードと卓球を楽しめます。お部屋は清潔です。共用スペースで他の人もいるので気を遣います。トイレも洗面所も１つを使います。静かに素泊まりであっさり泊まりたい人、駅に近いのがいい人におすすめです。部屋にトイレがないのは不便ですね。

部屋自体は広くもなく、トイレ、バスは共用だったが、部屋数も少なく、旅行客が少なかったため、不便は無かった。とても安かったので満足です。強羅駅が最寄りだったのもよかった。

My family and I stayed at the Tsubaki room for two nights. The room is originally for three people but the hostel nicely provided another futon for a fee. It was so cold when we stayed at the hostel so we didn't get to hang out at the rooftop but we enjoyed playing pool and table tennis on the first floor. We also needed duct tape for my luggage--good thing they had one. The hostel smells nice, too!

Para nada lo esperado, reservamos una habitación de 4 personas aunque nos íbamos a alojar solo dos, pues la habitación era pequeña. En la descripción no mencionaba que fuera de baño compartido y para estar en invierno tenian la calefacción apagada y tenias que encenderla tu al llegar teniendo que estar en un habitación congelada hasta que se consiguiera calentar pasadas algunas horas, ademas la ventana tenia una grieta en el cristal.

Toutes les chambres étaient en piteux état et l’établissement sentait l’humidité et le renfermé. De la naphtaline partout pour tenter de masquer les odeurs ! De plus loger à Gora qui est une ville morte et sans aucun attrait n’est vraiment pas une bonne idée. Seuil l’accueil était sympathique.
