“Warm, confortable and perfect for our large group.”
+Power Temple was warm, comfortable and had everything we needed. The staff were friendly and extremely helpful. The rooms and beds were comfortable and the common area was perfect for our group of ten. Importantly, one of our group had a skiing injury and the owners and staff could not have been more accommodating to our needs. I highly recommend this property as somewhere to stay where you get value for money and you are welcome and looked after. Thank you!
−The property was what we expected so there was nothing that we were concerned about.

“Temper Your Expectations”
+Outstanding Staff We had an amazing holiday at The Powder Temple, largely due to the exceptional staff and the welcoming atmosphere they created. I want to be very clear from the outset: the staff made this place what it was. Hannah, Jack, Freya, and the two Swedish guys were outstanding hosts throughout our stay. Their hospitality was genuine, warm, and consistent. Nothing was too much trouble, the property was always kept clean and tidy, and the overall vibe they created was fantastic. Chef Freya cooked great food, the two showers that were working were reliably hot, and having a bar on site was a nice bonus (although drinks were pretty exy).
−It’s important to temper expectations when it comes to the physical property and amenities. While this is on the cheaper end of accommodation, the facilities are very run down and, in some cases, felt a little unsafe. There were exposed wires (I’m not sure if they were live or not), a large heavy door in the dry room fell on me at one point, and the new dining area had multiple roof leaks. At one stage there weren’t enough buckets to manage the leaks, and unfortunately my little fella slipped on the wet floor. Also to note, there are a few odour issues getting around the place. The place definitely needs a lot of attention and maintenance. This accommodation is best suited to people who are regular campers , it’s really more like glamping than lodge-style accommodation.

“Was a good stay”
+You get what you pay for. The rooms were big and bed was comfy. Staff were helpful.
−Rooms were not cleaned once for a 6 night stay. You are also not allowed to bring food or drink into the rooms. There were also bugs in the room and no body wash or conditioner or shampoo in the bathroom.

“Bad”
+The staff were very polite and helpful.
−There were dozens of pests found throughout the hotel (ants and stinkbugs). There was an issue with the shower plumbing which caused the 1st floor and the shower rooms to flood eveytime any guest took a shower. This occured every single day. Everytime we would step out of our room we would be stepping out into a puddle. Also this caused the entire 1st floor to smell of mold, rot, and sewage as the drains would back up. Additionally, hot water was unavailable for a day due to the hot water heater giving out.

“I would not stay here again.”
+Nothing.
−The beds were extra small twin beds, and rock hard. Almost like a child's bed. The property charged an exorbitant amount of money over what a Hostel style hotel should charge. Additionally, they said that breakfast would be included and the kitchen was closed. There was said that dinner would be available and the kitchen was closed. When we arrived, the person checking us in asked for showers to be kept to 30 seconds as the bathrooms would otherwise flood. Signs on the bathroom doors said to keep showers to a minimum and that if you were looking for more bathroom time you could go to an onsen and pay for a shower. Additional signs around the property also said that they would charge a 1000 yen fee if you were found to have outside food or beverage on the property. The bathrooms were also co-ed, which there was never any mention of. I was brushing my teeth very early in the morning to beat the crowds and a man came out of the bathroom stall wearing nothing but his underwear. This could be very alarming for someone that was not expecting this to be the case. I would not stay here again with the lack of transparency. Additionally, this property should not be charging well over $100 US
