Owner is a sole-proprietor, and she has several buildings where she uses for her hotel. The downstairs of the main hotel is for eating, live music (usually jazz), and for drinks, small bar. She took well care of me, we went together for a few errands, and I picked up a cold virus, so she took me to the pharmacy, and the option of going to the store, also went to the laundromat, as one dryer she has is broken, but for a few hundred yen, the coin laundry dries it in half an hour. Room was clean, plenty of dishes, and a massage chair for unlimited use. I will definitely stay here again. Authentic rooms.

Live Cafe no Umi is a chance to stay in a traditional Japanese home and experience home cooking and true hospitality. This is Keiko’s family home so it is very traditional and that includes a shared bathroom and toilet, but it is set up in a very easy way. The stairs are very steep, which is completely normal in Japan but worth being aware of. Our room included a small kitchenette which was handy, but we paid for breakfast (1,500 yen each) which was a huge, multi-dish affair presented beautifully like in a fancy ryokan. The downstairs is where Keiko serves meals and also is the location of the Live Cafe. We heard a jazz quartet rehearse while we were there - it was a fun chance to hear local musicians. If you want a regular hotel and its amenities, there are some in Itiogawa. If you would like to experience real Japanese living and people, we could not recommend Live Cafe no Umi and Keiko’s hospitality more.

This is a quirky little place with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The owner was very welcoming and provided special mochi as we were staying on a festival day. Shared bathroom and toilet, clean and the water was hot! Comfortable beds and a quiet location. We enjoyed our stay, parking available. Our room was up some very steep stairs .. if this is a problem for you enquire before booking.

　急遽糸魚川に宿泊することになり、駅前のビジホが一杯で、こちらを利用。相部屋にはしない方針、とのことで、ゆったり一部屋使わせていただきました。 　現地払いで、現金希望。カードも使えるようだが、そういわれたら現金で払うしかない。お風呂とトイレは共用。どうも二部屋しかないようなので、お風呂は声をかけてから使用。wifiはアドレスが二つ提供されているが、一つは使えない。もう一つはカフェのもののようで、夜中すぎると使えない。オーナーさんが寝ている間は使えない？ 　長期滞在だと洗濯機もあるので便利かも。ビジホがなくて、という今回の場合は価格がビジホと変わりがなく、バス・トイレ共用（それほど困らなかった）、wifiが使えない（不便）、朝食なし、なので、ビジホのほうがいいかな。

楽しみ本線、日本海

９月２３日の土曜日に１泊しました。オーナーの女将さんが、非常に感じが良くてチェックイン時にはほっとしました。またこの女将さんは英語が堪能で驚きました。この日はデンマークの親子とドイツからの男性と朝食が一緒でした。私も英語は得意なのでたくさん会話を楽しむことができました。とりわけ、朝食は品数が非常に豊富で感動しました。近くにマリンドリームという日本海のカニが非常に安く食べられるので、１度は行く価値が非常に高いと思います。さらに近くの国道８号線沿いの海岸道路は立地条件がとてもよく、車窓からの景色はamaizing と言うより他ありません。
