2-Star Hotels in Niigata Prefecture, Japan

The hotel is on the East side of the station which we hadn't stayed before. Its quieter then the West which was nice but still close to some restaurants and the main bus stops for ski resorts. Its about a 5 min walk from the station. We arrived and nobody was at reception and even dinging the bell we had to wait a while. It is a bit of a mess downstairs in reception with the owners clutter but that has nothing to do with your stay so not to worry. We did request a Japanese room if available but nothing was ever mentioned about that and we just got a western style twin. The owner didnt know much english so we didn't want to bother trying to explain. It was clean, neat and every day we got new towels, yukata, new tea, bed made etc. There is a dry room downstairs for your skis and boots and gear and everything was toasty and warm in the morning. You leave the key in the box when you leave each day and get it back from reception once you return, though if we went out for dinner again later or to the konbini we would just keep it on us. You have your own bathroom but they also have 1 Japanese Onsen and you can use it for private and lock the door. It was so nice to have private Onsen as we have rarely been able to have Onsen together in Japan as a couple. It is also a close walk to a Lawson so you don’t have to fight the other tourists for food at the 7 Eleven on the west side. Or you can go to Matsumoto KiYoshi at the station East side. The hotel was quiet when we were there. Perhaps there wasn't many guests or maybe they were just considerate and quiet people. I would stay here again for sure but would like to get a Japanese room next time.

I stayed at the Apa Hotel for the first time this time. The room was clean and the facilities were substantial, and I felt like an Apa Hotel.

Last time I couldn't stay at the Sanjo Festival because it was full, but this time there was a vacancy and it was saved. I always use it, but there is no complaint.

Above all, it was close to the beach, the view was good and the location was great. I was able to spend comfortably with a shower before and after check-out. The dinner with a big boat was delicious, and the free service of the ice and drink bar, and the table tennis table were also delighted. Only one thing was looking forward to entering the public bath with the child while watching the sunset, but it was a pity that the bath on the sea side was a man hot water, and it was not seen. With family, mothers often bring small children in, so I am glad to have a priority on women's hot water. It was a little sad because I felt the custom of old-fashioned male and female.

I stayed for sleeping in May. It was old but comfortable and the owner was also nice and good. It may not be suitable for a trip seeking healing or hospitality, but it was beautiful and I was satisfied. I think it's better to ski. It was about 30 steps from the dry room to the lift platform. but here you can pet It is necessary to be careful because it is not possible at present.

Very nice, bunk room good for school group or backpacker, with convenient infrastructure include restaurant, vending machine, microwave and public bath, recommend to drive there.

I was used when supporting the children's tournament. I arrived quite late, but I received a polite response. I'm glad I got rid of my tiredness in the bath.

It was a good hotel that I would like to use again.
