P-Dash Garden — Hotel in Higashikawa

I would say it is good place for budget travellers, however as you need to hire a car to reach it§s location, I think it might be not fitting into this category. ||||It is really quiet and peaceful, basically located in the nature. In some rooms you can hear the river's flowing etc.||||I respect the person who manages or owns this house, and I think it is a good way of life to have such a business. The property has mangas (comics), CD collections, Japanese figures etc all over the place, which makes you feel like as it would someone's family house shared by guests. ||I think the rooms' furniture are collected one by one as their overall style do not necessarily match. And I like people who try to save stuff which still can be used and it gives an interesting feeling to the whole place.||My only concern was the cleanliness of the bathroom, which was a bit dirty, I think.

Stayed Saturday and Sunday night during a recent trip to Hokkaidō in a single room. The room, bathroom, shower areas were very, very clean and easy to access.

If you want a more convenient location geographically, stay at one of the business hotels near Asahikawa station. ||Although I visited during off-peak season this time when there frankly wasn’t much happening, I’ll be sure to come back in the future for lavender season and winter sports season....

We travelled in a family with small kids. We love the room arrangement, 3 double deckers, each cover with curtain and a light which given privacy, a sofa and coffee table in the room. The kitchen is fully equiped, but if you need to cook, have to prepare your own oil and source. The brushing and cleaning area is well maintained. Two shower rooms at first floor are big with 'pond', but we only used shower, My kids enjoyed played in the playing room, sorry for their uncontrolable high volumn if disturbed others during our three days stay.||||The living hall area is good to meet other travellers, equiped with tables, chairs, fridge, kettle, coffee and tea, playing cards and comics as well as heater.||||There was times bad smelt from toilet, maybe the ventilation need to be improved, or the W/C didn't flush properly by some travellers....||||All and all, this is the most sastified place we stayed during our trip...
