The cottage is quiet and in a great location, close to the national park and the shops in Volcano Village. We especially appreciated having a deep bathtub to use after a long hike. The bed is comfortable. There is a scary note about not using the heater and the microwave at the same time, so we were really careful! The place is basic and no frills. You need to eat at a counter as there's no table. If you're content with a small, not fancy place, this is fine.
