Surpirse tourist tax on arrival. They assumed because we were of western orgin that we would only want breads for breakfast. They offered thr rest of their guests a Japanese breakfast (which we would have loved). The website didnt state they had cats. I am very allergic so it made for an uncomfortable stay.

Good location but grumpy managers
This place could be a great stay if the staff were a bit friendly. Not welcoming at all, and supposed to be a 'Guest House'. Very expensive stay for a hostel which can only be accessed by vehicle.

Interesting place | Fantastic views
I thought the place was nice. It's quite the distance away from the closest station and very far from the nearest city but if you like that sort of thing then it's perfect. The room I stayed in looked like it was infested with ladybugs but they don't really bother you once you turn off the lights. Having a car is probably better for this place since everything is so far away. There's no store or restaurant nearby so you'll have to eat at the hostel which I personally did not mind. The staff however, will provide a shuttle service to Mashu station if you let them know in advance. However, it seems like this place would be better to stay at in the summer since there appears to be a lot of hiking trails in the area.

nice place - good stay
booked this hostel last minute (8pm at night) because I happened to be nearby and I had a great stay. Building is much more interesting architecturally than the average hostel. Dorm room was very comfortable (4 beds and plenty of room) with inner spring mattresses (hooray!). Common room very pleasant, hostel will cook dinner on request (noodle soup) and good japanese breakfast. Beers and cocktails also available. All reasonably priced. Staff were lovely and happy to have a chat. We did some stargazing and they recommended the "sea of clouds" at a local Observatory the following morning (weather permitting). Only dislike for me was the shared japanese style showers (shy!) but the hot spring bath was nice. Very happy with and would stay again.

Nice place but limited English
This is a nice guesthouse quite out of the way. The staff are very accomodating and fetched me to and fro from the JR station multiple times. If you are on public transport, there is nothing much to see around unless you rent a bike. There are several good cycling routes along Kussaharo lake. Mashu is also accessible from here - get a ride to mashu station and transfer to public bus. Hostel staff speak limited english but they help as much as possible.

Quiet location near to sightseeing spots. Comfortable hostel, but shared bathrooms were on a different floor from the rooms which were quite inconvenient.

Guest house is located near Lake Kussharo. I rented a car, thus its easy to travel to the guesthouse. The guesthouse area is peaceful, cosy and countryside feel. Shared bathroom and toilet if you don't mind which is clean. They provide breakfast lunch dinner for a fee which is quite good. Would stay again during other seasons.

Tiny room, but great shared lounge and dinning rooms. The only meal we had there was breakfast, which was nice japanese buffet style. Onsen was tiny indoor bath in a slightly claustrophobic room, but nice and hot!

お手頃価格の温泉宿で星もきれいに見える
ユースゲストハウスですが、年配の方も多数でした。トイレは１階で２階がベッドルームですが、お風呂も温泉で満足しました。屈斜路原野は周りに家がなく、夜は星が見えそうなのでここに泊まりました。久しぶりにたくさんの星を見ました。

遮光カーテンで無かったためAM3:35の日の出から目が覚めた
遮光カーテンで無かった為、日の出のAM3:35から明るくなって目が覚めた。窓の開閉が出来ない。暑くて寝苦しかった。お風呂が温泉で少し熱めの湯でした。バスタオルとハンドタオルが付いていました。客室が全室２階でトイレと浴室が一階です。洗面は付いていたからまだ許せます。３０年ぶりのユースでしたが、客室は飲食禁止ですが、食堂ではアルコールOKなんですね。遮光カーテンになったらまた泊りたいですね。

低価格で１泊２食があり、食事も念のためカップラーメンを持って来ましたが食べる必要がなく満足出来ました。温泉の湯もあって、気持ち良かったです。翌朝の雲海ツアーは１５００円追加ですがとても良かったので、オススメします。
