Finest hotel ever

Unlike its old-looking appearance, the interior maintains cleanliness and interior design are better than most other 2~3 star hotel Although the bathroom is shared, the bathroom also clean and comfortable The location is also a 5-minute away from famous tourist attractions, and there is a convenience store right in front of it, so accessibility is superior To sum up the above, I think it's okay to decide to stay without any concern, whether it's a family travel or travel alone

とってもオススメです！！

全てがとてもおしゃれで、特に1階のフリースペースが居心地が良かったです。ここでのんびりしたくなりました。コロナの影響か、客数は少なくて静かなのがまた良かったです。朝食サービスが停止中なのが残念でしたが、キッチンは自由に使えて有難かったです。シャワースペースもとても綺麗で、シャンプーやボディーソープも置いてありました。バスタオルも部屋に置いてくれてました。息子と行きましたが、二人ともまた行きたいと思っています。ありがとうございました！

ロビーも部屋もシャワールームもとにかくかわいい！シャワールームも清潔です。ゲストハウスなのでアメニティ類は無いです。夜寝る前にロビーで翌日の予定などを話し合ってましたが、オシャレな空間なので旅のワクワク感が高まりました。最寄り駅は南小樽駅ですが、散策がてら商店街を通って小樽駅や運河の辺りまで歩いてもいいと思います。一方、建物が木造で古いからか通路の声は完全に聞こえます。神経質な人はうるさいかも知れません。部屋に空調は無いですが、7月後半でも暑くはなかったです。

雰囲気のある大きなホステル。ドミトリーの部屋も、一つ一つのベッドがカーテンで仕切られており、プライベートな空間を確保できるのがよかった。また、共用エリアが広いのもよかった。トイレ、シャワーも数が多く、ゆっくりと入ることができた。スタッフもフレンドリーな方ばかり。美味しい朝食もついています(食パン、茹で卵、バナナ、コーヒー、牛乳、オレンジジュース、ジャム)。とても素敵な滞在ができました。小樽を訪れた際にはまたここに泊まりたいです。

편의점도 가깝고 관광지와도 가까워서 위치적으로는 좋았습니다. 다만 시설이 세련되고 예쁘기는 해도 전체적으로 편안한 느낌은 아니었어요. 목조건물이라 삐그덕 대는 소리도 심하고, 특히 호스텔에 묵는 경우 난방이 전혀 되지 않아서 너무 춥고, 침대 시트도 스스로 깔아야 하고, 칫솔 잠옷 등 제공되는 서비스가 거의 없어서 너무 불편했네요 ㅜ 비슷한 가격에서 다른 서비스, 물품들이 많이 제공되는 타 호스텔, 게스트하우스 대비 별로였던 것 같아요. 다만 매일 아침 무료로 제공되는 조식은 매우 좋았습니다 !
