ロケーションは良かった。
静かなロケーションの割に、隣の部屋が深夜過ぎまで騒いでうるさく眠れなかった。

Nous avons eu l'impression d'être dans une petite maison de campagne en bord de lac. Il y a même une petite plage juste en face !
Très agréable surprise de constater la grande taille du logement.
Les futons étaient confortables, le logement propre.
Nous y reviendrons entre amis avec grand plaisir
Il s'agit d'un logement japonais avec le strict minimum d'équipements et évidemment quelques insectes mais c'est la campagne ! Rien qui ne gâche l'expérience

We got a room with its own toilet and bathroom for a great price. Traditional tatami style room makes it feel very humble and homely. The staff was very friendly and accommodating - they drove us to the station very early in the morning.
The young patrons were lively and a little loud late into the evening. We didn’t really mind but since we wanted to get an early start the next morning, it was a little challenging getting to sleep early. It was very minor but if I were to pick something I didn’t like, this would be it.

Clean bathroom and toilet. The cottage we stayed in was near the parking and easily accessible, important for us because we were with a baby.
We could negotiate an early check-in.
The place is in front of the beach indeed but the beach didn't look so clean, maybe ok to just look at the scenery but not for swimming. Instead, we went to Omimaiko to swim.
It was difficult to find the hostel, maybe some clear signs along the way will help.
