Things to consider before booking this place
Caution to staying here.
Pros: almost secluded with nature; very nice storage container changed into a good mobile home stay; self operated.
Cons: NO shuttle/taxi/bus services to this lodging. (I even asked the manager/ possibly owner female Japanese woman, if she could give me a ride to the closest bus stop for the airport limousine bus pickup. This stop is at the VERY beginning of the ENTIRE area of onsens in Kurokawa onsens. The so-called bus stop that’s 2 minutes away from the lodging is out of service until 08/2025! This walk is 19 minutes without luggage! More with luggages and hills :) any who the woman I asked l smiled at me and said “no, thank you” and shooed me off.) Customer service is NON-Existence at container villa. Long story short on this MEGA con, get yourself a car because the little shops are far and open selected days. Bus doesn’t run that much over at the area they ONLY take CASH YEN. No IC CARDS started 11/15/2024. If you’re coming from Kumamoto city area there are only 2 buses that come out there… just get a car to go to kurokawa. Another CON: there is no lock on the female onsen door, which needs to be one AND a better dividing section of changing to get into onsen. Felt uncomfortable knowing anyone could pull the door open and can see everything from the outside in. Last con for me, but kind of expected the internet was very very VERY spotty. Hope you’re not relying on strong internet because that’s not the case if you have work stuff to complete.
