    Had a great time at Bandai. Wonderful hosts, amazing food, felt like being part of the family. Lovely experience in the countryside and still close enough to all amenities of the town and Triennale. Great value for money, great experience. Travelled by train and public transport, absolutely possible, but with a car probably more comfortable. Pick up from train station possible. Star of the stay was the amazing home cooked food. Amazing breakfast and dinner.

    Nothing to complain about, a little far from the main town but the owners will drive you

    Owners were extremely friendly and helpful.

    Best Hospitality & Best Breakfast

    The hospitality of this place is an absolute 10/10. The place is run by a friendly married couple. We were a bit early and they welcomed us and had our room, ready for us to use. We checked in fast and we went to the Tsunan Snow Festival, we came in back late at around 10pm and the wife greeted us and made sure we knew where the facilities were. The next day, we had a traditional Japanese breakfast and that breakfast is still the best traditional breakfast we have throughout the trip to Japan. The husband explained to us, that the rice was grown by him or his family (we were using language translate apps to communicate). We also had a friendly conversation about where we come from and our trip to Japan. This place completely blew all expectations that we had. We expected this to be just a pit stop on our car journey north (did I mention they have plenty of parking?) but it ended up being a place and a memory that we will never forget.

    The owners are supper helpful, we feel indebted for his kindness to drive us in snowy day to Urasa! 🙏🙏 the dining was splendid ! We travel by train, the last connection Liyama line is what really rural train offer to make every corner of Japan connected 🤓 The owner only communicate via phone, but it should not be an issue as the place is easy to find and they are always at the place. We feel like home !

    The steep stairs leading down to the 2 common bath rooms are a bit trying and risky for elderly people like me and my friends.

    There is a train station within easy walking distance, but to take full advantage of all that the area has to offer (especially if time is shorter), access to a car is will be an advantage.

    The proprietors are a helpful, warm-hearted couple with deep knowledge of the history, agriculture, and culture of the area. The Japanese meals served were varied and delicious! Accommodations were comfortable and homey.

    The home away from home I never knew I had. The owners treat you like relatives that have come to stay, joyfully and with affection. The owners showed great interest in us as guests and people, asking about our days what we enjoyed in Niigata and where we were off to next. The baths had two options, one a traditional onsen style bathroom and the other more like a traditional house, the owners filled the tubs allowing you to soak after your shower. The rooms were spacious, comfortable and cool with AC you could control yourself. For the first time ever, I can happily say I loved the bead pillow provided. The location is directly outside of town following the main road. It sits next to a creek and is surrounded by rice paddies really letting you embrace the Japanese countryside while still being a 10 minute drive from the central shopping and drinking area of Tokamachi. Lastly was the breakfast. What looks like a standard Japanese breakfast will feel you with love, each dish is carefully prepared and pleasently presented.
