Fabulous Family friendly hotel with many large onsen pools.
Lots of space & activities for the kids too.
It can get a tad noisy at dinner in the buffet hall.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Not great for couples / friends travelling unless you have young kids.
Basically a mini resort hotel filled with families and young children.
Onsen was decent and the outdoor pool is nice. Property is in the middle of nowhere, about a 40min drive to the nearest town.
You do get a breakfast and dinner buffet included and while the food is fairly good its the same every day.
The outdoor onsen pool for kids to play is very good. However, we feel disappointed with the food. We had dinner at 6:30 (the last time slot offered by the hotel), at 6:50 some food already running out and no refill. I have visited Japan for many times and never seen this happens before. Something wrong with the resturant management.

Liked: Staff & service, room comfort
Family trip
Little but expensive compare with what they have served.
Long queue for self check in, early arrive if you want to join the activities afterwards.
Room is big but dust is easy found, air conditioning not quite function.
Great for kids, but most of the activities need to register & pay extra. Good place for dining with free playground, the outdoor onsen beach is nice but better to bring a footwear to protect your feet especially for children, the ground in the beach area is easy to hurt their skin due to they revamp with non-slip sand

Staff at the front desk was poorly trained and couldn't find my Expedia reservation at first.
Indoor play places weren't included in the hotel fee although I think they should have been.
If you are a non-smoker, do yourself a favour and skip this place. The hotel uses central air conditioning and the rooms on the non-smoking floor (level 7) smell musky with a stale cigarette stench. We had 3 rooms in my group and all the rooms were the same even when we changed rooms. In addition, most of the service staff were non-Japanese, they could not communicate well and did not appear to be well trained and quite rude. When I tried to gently share some feedback with the reception staff, she simply grunted and ignored me. Of the dozens of Hotels I’ve stayed in across Japan, this has to be the worst.
This is not the place for a relaxing vacation. We knew it was family friendly but this hotel purely caters to families with small kids. If you enjoy being woken up in the middle of the night by screaming toddlers and screaming adults, someone pounding on the floor or against the walls this is the place for you. Unfortunately the place is also filthy and smells gross. Mold in the windows and the bathroom, hair in the shower and on the floor, toothpaste spills from previous guests on the bathroom doors. The furniture in the room is fine but the bathrooms look like something you have in a hospital and not a hotel. The staircase and elevators are disgusting, no one has cleaned there in a long time and the smell is apprehensive. We were lucky to have a car and go somewhere during the day, otherwise you are stuck in your room or the onsen because there is nothing else to do for adults without kids. The food was decent and staff is friendly but that doesn't make up for the shortcomings.
very disappointed that this property was advertised at Expedia which we booked from Australia: limited vital information. We arrived to find that dinner was included in room rate. However we soon discovered that there is NO WAY to explore area due to limited transport options For eg only buses leave for airport and Sapporo at 10ish am, Return bus from Sapporo is at 1pm. No other way to get to anywhere if you don't have a car: a taxi to Sapporo or rusutsu could be up to $500 aud.
There is NO restaurants around other than hotel buffet dinner. We had two kids with us and there was NO LUNCH options to buy other than hotel shop selling snacks and chips, My kids had NO LUNCH for 3 days. Staff speak no English other than two Nepali and Sri Lankan staff we met, They seemed to know nothing much about how to get tranpsport or public transport.
The rooms were stuffy and HOT for 3 nights despite winter: we did not get any decent sleep. Windows didnt open. We complained to hotel and Expedia and checked out 2 days early, Hotel said they would refund as If Expedia sent them an email. We called Expedia multiple times before cancelling to confirm to them the answer from hotel: Expedia refused to talk to the English speaking reception staff when I called them. Then Expedia called us back to say no staff was speaking English. Few days later Expedia emailed to say hotel refused refund: after they had allowed us to cancel saying they will refund. Im still contacting Expedia but no reply
