A great place for families. They have fishing and you can shoot off your own fireworks nearby. They have a great buffet for dinner with an emphasis on seafood. The staff are very welcoming and friendly. The facilities are a little dated but clean.

Traditional Japanese style hotel. You can enjoy onsen & swimming pool although not tattoo friendly. (There are also rooms with private onsen.)Dinner buffet had an amazing variation of local seafood that you can cook at your table.We enjoyed some classic famicom games in the game room too.

I made a reservation after seeing it introduced on YouTube.[Good points]I went there for the buffet, so I was glad to be able to eat fresh seafood from Izu.It was great because I could grill the meat and shellfish whenever I wanted!It was really nice to have a free table tennis table. There was no one waiting and there was no time limit, so I was able to enjoy it for a long time.And it was nice to be able to enter the outdoor pool even in September. I thought I wouldn't be able to go in because the sea and pool season was over, so I was very satisfied![Bad points]During the buffet, I saw that the plates that were placed were often missing.I was very curious about this as I work at a restaurant. It is better to throw away a chipped plate and replace it with a new one as it is dangerous and can cause injury to small children or customers.Also, all the customers were rushing to pick up their buffets, so I was worried about children and elderly people getting hurt. If possible, I thought it would be a good idea to limit the number of people allowed in at a time.There were insects in the room.First, when I was shown to my room and opened the door to the Japanese-style room, a large insect appeared right in front of me.Was it a coincidence at first? I put it in a bag and disposed of it.But the next day, two spiders came out from the ceiling. I was still alive, so there was nothing I could do about it, so I put up with it.The building is a bit old and I think it can't be helped that there are insects due to the location, but I would like you to be careful in the future to prevent this from happening again.

Basically, everything is a hotel built in the Showa era.This was my second time there, and I always went during off-peak periods (this time it was early September, early September), but there were many guests staying.I think the selling point here is the seafood barbecue type buffet.The baths are broken in some places, but if you don't dislike the luxury or Showa-era feel of the facilities, you'll be satisfied to a certain extent.A surprising number of young people came as well.If there is one thing, there is an all-you-can-drink chilled oshiruko (welcome drink), but it's extremely bland, so I thought it would be nice if the quality of that drink was higher.Breakfast was an extension of the night so there was no shellfish, so I was satisfied with the amount of food. The quality of the food is probably around 6 on a scale of 10.The curry was delicious. It's not that popular, or rather it hasn't decreased that much, but maybe it's because there are so many other types that it's hard to get around to curry.

I stayed here yesterday for one night with two meals included. We checked in at 16:00, but there were already quite a few guests in the hotel.Regarding the parking of motorcycles, a guide is always waiting in the parking lot to guide you. You can park your bicycle under the eaves, but there isn't enough height to park your bicycle, so it might be difficult for people like Big Off.As for my room, I didn't find anything unclean, and the air conditioner worked perfectly, but it was a little noisy. You can spend a quiet time without any noise from the room next door or above penetrating, and the sound of ripples is so soothing. As far as my preferences go, the bedding is basically a futon on tatami mats without a mattress, so I woke up mid-sleep because it was uncomfortable. I suddenly doubled up my extra mattress and it turned out just fine.The bathing facilities are as shown in the photo. The number of showers is small compared to the size. You might not be able to use it when it's crowded, and the temperature of the bathtub is a little low. I don't mind it because I like it warmer than Achi Achi, but people who like Achi Achi may not be satisfied with it.The food, which is the mainstay of this hotel, is so good that there is nothing to complain about. There was no shortage of items and they were constantly replenished, so I have no complaints. I think breakfast was better than dinner. However, there was a line to enter the dining hall, so if you want to eat quickly, you can line up early. If you eat normally, you will be full after eating for an hour.Regarding in-house/front desk services, first of all, except for inbound tourists who don't need to be accompanied by someone to guide them inside the facility. I thought it was a bit strange that the bill was paid at the time of checkout rather than in advance, but the service was polite.Overall, I have no complaints about the main meal. However, in terms of the overall evaluation of the accommodation, I have to lower the star because the facilities inside the hotel were very old and the common areas were unclean. As for whether or not to use it repeatedly, I think it's a matter of "let's do our best." Even if one person uses it, I don't think it's commensurate with the usage fee. I might come again if there is a repeat use benefit.

The morning and evening buffet is really good!Recommended for those who want to enjoy this first.What I was concerned about isslippers! This may not be a problem for young, healthy people, but it doesn't absorb shock and doesn't fit easily, making it difficult for people with joint or back pain to move around. The yukata was cute, but I was wearing sneakers.Also, the mat in the changing room was too slippery.I thought it was dangerous.Also, maybe it was due to the typhoon, but the hot water in the public bath was too lukewarm. The air conditioner was running hard in the changing room, so I couldn't get out because it was too cold, so I took a hot shower before getting out.The foreign service staff also tried their best in Japanese, and I would like to thank them for their careful service and meal preparation.
