Ashinoko Port Villa Mirahakone

We stayed on the first floor apartment. No elevator but that is already stated on the booking site. One flight of steps wasn’t a big deal to climb. It was easy check in with pass codes. It was equipped with a kitchenette and came with toiletries and pajamas as well as house slippers. Lots of hangers, racks , and baskets to place your coats and shoes. It has 2 double beds and 2 more double sofa beds with bedding inside - we were a family of 4 adults and 2 children - it was a cosy fit. The apartment is old but it has been kitted out with modern amenities. The heater worked fine and room was a comfortable temperature. The best plus of this property is the location! It is only one minute from the bus stop where the buses go to Odawara as well as connecting to other bus routes around Hakone. It is one street behind the shores of Lake Ashi and the jetty where you can board the pirate ship cruise to Togendai. Lots of eateries and souvenir shops are open in the day but they do close early by 5 pm. There is a Chinese restaurant a short walk away that opens till 10 pm. The shop owner was so kind to work out a good meal for us based on the limited cash we had on us which was 6000 yen! There is a Lawson store round the corner where we could buy ready made meals. We had a couple of good nights staying in and eating snacks and drinking all kinds of Japanese liquor. Lastly the price we paid for the accommodation was so reasonable for such a high demand tourist destination. I would definitely stay here again if I ever returned to Hakone.

First of all, this is self check-in airbnb! And there were stairs to go up to the room! We had to climb the stairs with our luggage! Troublesome The place was dead at night. Nothing was there. Except Lawson but u need to walk quite far. This airbnb was in old, bad condition!!! Very dirty, the room was so dark. The bathroom was super tiny! The area was so scary! My son & I couldn’t sleep at night cuz we heard so many noises n so scary. My son even heard a scratch n scream voices in the middle of the night around 3-4am!! We couldn’t sleep at all. We couldn’t wait to get out from the place!
