Pension Oz

The staffs are very friendly, the space is very cozy, I really like the design of this homestay, it has full facilities, and it is also very clean. It only takes about 5 minutes walk from Hatsuka Ishiguchi bus stop. You can choose to add dinner service for 1500¥ and breakfast for 1000¥ but you won't know what you will be served in advance, like the typical Japanese omakase style. I came in mid-February, the snow was very heavy so the restaurants closed very early, the homestay's 1500 yen dinner really saved my hunger.

The only thing I don't like is the bathroom. Since I'm a foreigner, I'm really shy about sharing a bathroom with someone. And you can only shower between 16:00-23:00. And since it's winter, when I step out of the bathroom to get dressed, it's really cold. That's the only thing that stops me from coming back to this homestay. If you're okay with this type of bathroom, I highly recommend this homestay.

It's walking distance from the slopes. Even though they weren't well versed in English, the staff were very helpful. The heater works well in the room.

The walls are quite thin so noise could be an issue. Luckily the guests were all very considerate.
