Guest rooms will provide guests with a dishwasher. Feeling Like a Part of Asuke – A Heartwarming Stay Located just a 10-minute walk from Korankei, the hotel offers excellent access, making it an ideal base for exploring the area, especially during the autumn foliage season. The owner’s warm and welcoming personality adds to the charm of this stay. They shared many insights about the history and highlights of Asuke, making me feel as though I had become a part of this beautiful town. I stayed in a single room, which was spacious and comfortable, offering a relaxing experience. The restrooms and shower facilities were clean and well-maintained, and to top it off, there was even an open-air bath. It was the perfect way to unwind and soothe my travel fatigue. This is a place I would love to return to as a base for exploring Asuke.

Location is perfect, next to the station (and bus stop for Snow Monkeys, ski resort) as well as a convenient Lawson. There's water, tea and coffee and a fridge for guests.

Located in Numazu and with Senbon Beach reachable within 500 metres, 沼津ライダーハウスしんちゃん provides concierge services, non-smoking rooms, a garden, free WiFi and a terrace. The property is set 21 km from Shuzen-ji Temple, 28 km from Mount Daruma and 39 km from Hakone-Yumoto Station. Private parking is available on site.

Each room is fitted with a shared bathroom with a shower and a hairdryer. Guest rooms at the hostel include air conditioning and a desk. Owners were super friendly, very communicative (they spoke some English, Google translate was handy) and very approachable with any request we had (they lend us futon with blankets for our car sleepover) Accommodation was nice, clean and tidy. We slept in traditional Japanese styled room with comfy futon. We stayed in classical room upstairs once, both clean. Wifi available. Shared area had fridge, microwave, kettle and toaster/grill, which were enough for us. I think they clean the shared area every day. But there was no cooking area nor plates nor cutlary. The owners were kind to lend us plates/bowls when we asked them. They didnt charge us anything extra for this. Location was also good. Despite the train station being bit further (20min walk), beach and Numazu port was closeby. Shop was located just next door, some small restaurants and convenience stores were around. The best home-like stay we had in Japan so far. We felt really welcomed.
