Mixed feeling about this … it’s a walk from the jr station in the center of the red light district, cheap accommodation, no big deal … but first room the WiFi signal was bad, staff was helpful and changed to another room, again later on the WiFi was not useable, surely the manager knows about it , was planning to stay extra nights but was not possible, next morning manager rely the apologies and room fee was refunded
The front desk staff were super friendly! I accidentally booked a smoking room, but they kindly helped me switch to a non-smoking one. They offer free ramen in the evenings, and there's complimentary whiskey, red wine, and ice cream in the lobby – I couldn't resist having ice cream twice, haha. The location is really convenient; Toyama isn't very big, so you can easily walk to a few famous attractions. If you're visiting Toyama Castle, definitely pop over to the city hall's observation deck for a panoramic view of Toyama, the distant snow-capped mountains are absolutely stunning.
This time, I used it to celebrate my mother's white life and my sister's Koki. The dishes were also very satisfying to come out so many times with elaborate dishes on the sashimi of Kitokito. My mother and sister were pleased with this surprise by booking a cake in advance in secret and using the service that arrived at the inn on the day. The location was very good and the color of the sea changed from sunset and the sunrise rose from the sea, so it was great. I wanted to come again.
The accommodation isn't far from the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route (about 30 minutes away) and is quite affordable. The room is larger than typical Japanese rooms, newly built, modern, and free from any musty smells. Free parking is available right outside the room. The soundproofing in the room is excellent; I couldn't hear anyone else. There's a mountain view in the background. Check-in with the staff was smooth and the service was good. I received a coupon for a free frozen meal. The room has a microwave, a refrigerator with a freezer compartment, a kettle, a hairdryer, an air purifier, a lamp, and WiFi. In the common area, there's a coin-operated water dispenser and a washing machine. Across the street is a gas station, and diagonally opposite is a 24-hour MaxValue convenience store where many items are much cheaper (e.g., mineral water for less than 100 yen).
This hotel is a perfect place for our one day stay. And one of the best things at this hotel is a very generous number of amenities provided to guests - bath pads, body sponge, toothbrush kit, and many others. Even though the location is a bit far from Toyama JR station, it’s not hard to find, and it’s quite walkable from the station. The lady at the reception was super nice. She reminded us of what Japanese are really like. If I get a chance to visit his tower again in the future, I would definitely come back to this hotel. 
2 minutes walk from Toyama station
Good standing ground
The view public bath is the best view!
The facilities in the room are old, but I was able to spend it without problems.
Breakfast is rice.
There are several kinds of rice balls and they are delicious.
This homestay is really very, very good value for money, a lot of space, there is a living room, dining room, a leisure terrace, a separate hot spring pool, comfortable and very good, especially thank you Amy and lalisa, their warm hospitality is really very satisfying, their dinner is very rich and delicious, The view of the dining is very good. You can directly see the snow-capped mountains on sunny days. If you have the opportunity to come to the ice again, you will definitely stay again.
First time to experienced Japanese style ryokan and it's wonderful.
I like the place, very near the train station and to my intended tourist spot.
I really liked their Japanese style breakfast, It was so good and healthy.
The owner both the mother and son can speak english and very accomodating, helpful and very nice.
I will come back to this place if given a chance.
The road from Takaoka station to the hotel is dark and a little difficult to understand.
When I requested that I change to a non-smoking room if there was a vacancy at the time of the reservation, there was a vacancy on the day and I changed it.
The receptionist was more polite.
The hotel is not a card key but a key type and feels a bit old, but the minimum is available and I didn't feel particularly inconvenient.
Very Good

GGuest UserThe facilities are a bit old and belong to a traditional Japanese hotel. The service is quite satisfactory, I feel that the boss is not enthusiastic, but the people are very good, everything that should be done is done, and the reminders are in place. There is also a problem with the curtain without shading, which is easy to be illuminated by the sun early in the morning.
Others are perfect, especially the quilt is very clean and has no taste at all.
TthewandercuratorHad a friendly welcome in this good value ryokan guesthouse, which seemed more peaceful compared to the large hotel catering to big tours opposite. Was given a spacious private tatami room with a hot water kettle, retro TV and a private wash sink. Ample female/male shared toilets per level and a public bath for showers at the lower floor. Half board meals are taken in the dining room which had a beautiful view of Toyama city and the bay - I felt lucky to witness a beautiful sunset at dinner time. Dinner was pretty good but the breakfast set was a little underwhelming in terms of choice. They could cater to my seafood-only dietary requirements but needed reminders at breakfast the next morning. Every night if the skies are clear enough, the owner/staff arrange a nice stargazing activity and you can try snow shoe-hiking for free in the day. (The snow still hasn't melted off the boardwalks in the Midagahara alpine marshlands in end-May.) The alpine bus conveniently drops off right outside the ryokan on both directions but does not stop to pick up passengers ad-hoc. For pick ups, you will need to book a departure time with the hotel staff during check-in.

SSPNice Japanese breakfast. Strategic location to get around Gokayama and Shirakawa. In front of the hotel is the biggest Gassho style house in Japan that has a long history of being owned by samurais and where the emporia family had visited many times and is considered a cultural heritage of Japan.. I would go back to this hotel because of its location.

Ssy8888First time trying glamping and totally new accommodation! This resort is by the beach and includes sumptuous bbq dinner! Good for 4 people with individual bed in room with all amenities except tv which is totally fine. It also has onsen tickets to nearby hot spring which is great!! Highly recommend when in Toyama if you drive!
Very good service and friendliness by host! 👍👍
DDinaDiStaff friendly, breakfast has been made early on request. Not very clean in the bathroom, and at night the ventilation in my room was ventilated but it is normal to stay for 1 night. Beauty and towels are clean!
There is a microwave, a teapot and a refrigerator in the common zone.
Go from the hotel on foot 20 minutes to the Tateyama station. Breakfast is delicious and satisfactory, and there are beautiful female portraits in the hotel)
