    Good value for money. The room was fairly big for this type of hotel Staff is helpful but don't expect to get a long discussion.

    15 min walk from Kawaguchiko train station (but okay for Backpackers). WiFi okayish.

    Old but gold. Spacious room on 4th floor with Mount Fuji view from the hall. Very functional and clean. Good bed and quiet at night. There is a fridge. Friendly and helpful staff.

    It was cold at night. The air conditioner didn't provide enough heat, so I woke up shaking. I put on my thermowear and slept peacefully. Just wear some clothes and you'll be fine.

    It was a very cozy spacious room for a good price. We stayed there for 1 night to go to caves in the morning.

    Couldn't find the pyjamas, might need to ask but I didn't bother as I stayed only a night. Bed was a bit hard Room outdated.

    Spacious room. Very affordable, good value The view of Mt Fuji from the corridor was awesome. Staff (the senior gentleman) was helpful and tried his best to communicate in English. I really appreciate it

    Wifi is very weak. Bed sheets look old and is not comfortable. Pillows are flat. Staff is helpful but not friendly.

    The hotel is not very far from Kawaguchiko station if you could follow the short cuts. We could see Mt Fuji from the hall’s window and looks huge from the side of the entrance. We did not see any restaurant nearby but 7-Eleven is about 200 m away.

    Wished they offered shuttle service to the station. While the station is within walking distance - as mentioned - it was challenging having to drag 2 piece of luggages through the bumping uneven road while navigating my way back to the station.

    It was fairly close to Kawaguchi Station - about 10-15 minutes - but can be challenging while dragging your luggage cos of the uneven road at some parts. I was able to check-in an hour before check-in time. Different staff had varying degree of the English language abilities - as such - had to depend on Google Translation most of the time but that wasn’t bad at all. The room was spacious than the usual budget hotels. There was a microwave oven in each level to share - this helped especially if you want to walk to a shopping mall about 500 meters away to get your bento/ take out. There is a kettle in the room. No coffee available and tea bags are available at level 1. Breakfast is available for an additional charge of 800 yen. From the pic in the lift - didn’t look that good - so I passed. There are washing machines (200 Yen) for each load and dryer (100 yen) for 20 minutes. They only take 100 yen coins. There are 2 drug stores very near the hotel - very convenient if you want to grab some drinks, toiletries, snacks, etc.

    Hotel is out of the way if the hustle and bustle of Lake Kawaguchiko. It's a reasonable trek to the lake but the scenery during the walk makes up for it. You are supposed to be able to see a towering view of mt fuji from the road in front of the hotel but unfortunately during the 3 days we were there it was foggy and we could see anything. When we come back to Fujikawaguchiko will definitely stay here again, hopefully it's sunny this time so we can see mt fuji.

    Only thing would be maybe have some instant coffee or tea in the room so guests don’t need to go down to the front desk in the morning

    The property has a very late 70s wooden vibe. It was lovely and the view from the balcony was amazing

    No microwave in the room (one outside in the hallway). The bathroom smelled TERRIBLE. Like an unwashed condom (no joke). There was black mold on the bathroom ceiling. There was a cooktop, but no pan.

    Beds were comfy with lots of soft sheets. Location was decent, 14 minutes walking from Kawaguchiko Station and 1 minute walking from Welcia. Also, great unblocked view of Fuji san
