Ten years ago, when I first got my driver's license, I also took Driving Camp in Tochigi Prefecture.
The teachers have a Tohoku accent and are friendly, and many of them teach in a very careful manner.
I have attended three driving schools before to get my license, but I think the teachers here are very good.
Sometimes we receive strict driving instructions, but I think that is necessary to learn how to drive safely before going out on the public roads.
The office staff were very kind and helpful, so I'm glad I chose this driving school.
The hotel was a relatively clean Route Inn Hotel, the food was good and I was able to spend two weeks in the hotel comfortably without too many inconveniences.
Unlike Driving Camp 10 years ago, I was able to get my license without much stress.

It was very clean as it had just been renovated, and I was impressed with the effort they put into cleaning and other efforts to maintain that cleanliness.
The toilets in particular were so new and clean that it was hard to believe they were in a driving school (lol).
For training camps, we stay at the nearby Route Inn Nihonmatsu (depending on the type of car we are taking?). It is a mid-range chain hotel, so it is very convenient (it is also a new building that opened about 3 years ago).
There are also convenience stores, home improvement stores, large supermarkets, and coin laundry facilities all within a five-minute walk of the hotel, so you won't have any problems even if you're staying for ten days or more.
The lessons were also kind, so I was able to enjoy Driving Lessons. I feel that the school is considerate in that they offer lessons and tests to students even on school holidays (Sundays and Mondays).
There doesn't seem to be any "factions among instructors" like you might find at driving schools in urban areas, and all the staff, including instructors and administrative staff, get along well, so it's literally a homely atmosphere.
Some people have written in past reviews that "their attitude is...", but I have never had such an unpleasant experience during my lessons. It is clear that they are conscious of the "praising lessons" that is the stance of driving schools these days. It seems that some of the teachers have taken etiquette courses. Since they are handling a weapon weighing several tons, I think it is inevitable that they will be instructed in somewhat sharp words.
The shuttle bus requires a reservation and has a limited number of services, so you might find yourself without transportation when you want to go out and play during your free time! However, this is understandable when you consider the facilities and cost.
I don't go to driving schools very often, but if I were to get an additional license for another type of vehicle, I would definitely come back to Motomiya Driving School.
