Rusutsu Grand Cabin

快速人工協助完成Check In。三個大男孩們擠二樓的榻榻米房有點空間不足。但整體住宿體驗不錯。最緊要可以有投幣式洗衣烘衣服務！

老闆人特別好，住宿結束以後遇到麻煩也依舊很熱心幫忙

膝蓋受傷，飯店人員很熱心幫助我，非常感動。

Japan is one of a very small number of countries where I consider hostel-style accommodations. The Grand Cabin Rusutsu did not disappoint. I stayed in their shared room, in the style of a simple capsule hotel, with shared bathrooms and other facilities (there are also 'private' rooms but I believe they all share the common facilities). The capsule is quite private, with your own individual blind, a light, one 110V and one USB (A) socket; see attached photo. Shared facilties are impeccably clean (no idea how they do that). Surprisingly, although I was in a room with 19 other people, everybody was extremely polite and considerate. Most of the time you barely heard that there were other people around. The staff is very nice and friendly. Shuttle goes 3 times in the morning to Rusutsu resort (8,9,10am) and back 3 times back (I always took the first one, at 4pm, not sure about the other times). The Lawson conbini 2 minutes away is super convenient for food etc. There is a restaurant on the first floor which is open to the public. This is the 'grill your own meat' style. I tried it once and it was OK. I was the oldest guest (by quite a margin) but I did not feel out of place. Had nice conversations with some of the others, about half from Asia (various countries) and the other half Westerners (Aussies, Canadians and a single American). Costwise, it is an enormous bargain compared to the Resort itself. In particular of course for solo travelers. If I come back to Rusutsu I will for sure stay there again!

Better than a hostel, much better than a cheap motel. Grand Cabin is a great place to stay for the budget conscious when playing on the mountain at Rusutsu. A modern fit-for-purpose building, with a huge drying room in the basement. Much more affordable than other on mountain accommodation, and the fantastic young crew of staff work hard to make sure you are comfortable and drive you the 8km each day to drop you off at the resort, and are always on time to pick you up at the requested time each afternoon or evening (highly recommend the night skiing too!). The common area is well stocked with Tea, Coffee, Sugar, Creamer and Hot Water plus a microwave for meals picked up from the nearby convenience stores (we found it worth the short walk to 7-eleven which had more variety than the closer Lawson Station). The bathroom area is well set up and very private, with extra security for the ladies, and complimentary toothbrush/paste, hair brush, razor and vanity packs. Our room was very quiet and comfortable, we will be back!
