I'm almost 60 years old. Half a month left until I return to workThe plan for one night turned into 10 consecutive nights!?In my normal life, I can be a little shy.Would you like to ask the hostess of the inn to have dinner with you despite your late arrival?Start by saying! It was my first time to eat at a guest house with the innkeepers and guests, but every night I had conversations with new guests from Japan and abroad, regardless of their age, until late into the night, and the conversation changed as the guests changed each day. Long live the extra night ♪♪ It was one of the most important memories of my life.It's a guest house with dialogue.We met each other on the first night2nd night with best friend3rd night with familyI heard that many people were so interested in the story that they decided to stay overnight, and I wanted to feel myself from the fourth night onward, so I stayed for 10 consecutive nights until the day before I was due to go back to work!Even after checking out on the last day, I still didn't want to go home, so I left my luggage at the inn.Even though I only speak Japanese, I enjoyed lunch and sightseeing with the foreign guests, and said goodbye to the inn before the evening.During our stay, there was a time sale on flights to France.Even though I had no experience traveling abroad alone and could only speak Japanese, a Korean guest interpreted for a German guest who had lived in France and listened to his story. I went to the liquor store near where I lived to ask for details, and even I felt safe going there by myself❗️With such baseless confidence, I bought a ticket to France!At first, the inn felt like home, but as we stayed longer, it felt more like a villa.Before I knew it, I was having fun together like the people at the inn, and in the morning at the inn, I was talking with a foreign guest couple for an hour and a half using a translation app.At night, I played silhouettes on the beach with the landlady and foreign guests under the light of the red crescent moon and the early morning sunrise.There were also a lot of miraculous events♪Relaxing island timeWhen I was at the inn on the top of the hill, I could hear the music from the cute little fish shop 🎵 coming from downstairs around 10am, so I hurried down and went to buy some. The fish shop I come to twice a week in a light truck has been there for a long time, so I've bought it three times.It's cheap, fresh, and delicious!An okonomiyaki restaurant where you can interact with your neighborsPick wildflowers, eat wildflowers, and enjoy hot springs.Nice cafe/Café Tennin-an, Kasu udon, Chirimen soft serveAn award-winning liquor storePalm reading on the way to the hotel(Yes, I see! I have some advice to be careful)I lived in a town with a calm atmosphere, a view of boats that looked like something out of a movie or anime, and many nice days where I cherished conversations, and I made many friends in the neighborhood, and even started talking to them at the supermarket. I did.10 consecutive nights with the help of the landlady HimachamaA wonderful message from the owner, Acchan✨I learned a lot of hints for myself, and the way I feel about my daily life and the way I think about my future lifestyle has changed!Thank you 🍀Just like with books, what you feel at the time changes over time.Every time you visit this inn, the way you feel about it will change as you get older.I want people who hit this spot to visit and come back again and again to be healed.I look forward to discovering what is truly important and who you really are~✨

This is a wonderful inn where you can relax and enjoy a relaxing time with a variety of people!At night, we had lots of conversations around the dinner table with the guests and staff, and we became good friends, and then we went for a walk to the convenience store in the evening, or just sat in a daze at the beach. . .In the morning, I sit on the verandah of the inn and gaze out at the sea and city views, and during the day I chat and take naps on the tatami mats of the inn, take walks around town, and help the staff. At least it's really refreshing.When we say farewell to each guest, it feels like a once-in-a-lifetime experience.The personalities of the staff and owner are also really charming.It was such a wonderful inn that I would want to ``return'' rather than ``visit'' again someday!

It's a great place to be able to interact with a variety of people even if you're traveling alone. The owner and his wife are also very friendly and charming.I highly recommend staying for 2 nights or more instead of just 1 night!

I decided to stay because the concept was interesting, and I stayed for 2 nights because of the consecutive stay discount.It was a relaxing place where I was able to chat with the friendly staff and other guests, eat dinner together, read a book, and relax.It was a guest house that had a strong sense of home and made me want to come back again.

Best place of all our Japan travels! You get to experience the real rural Japan - with a sake brewery, a karaoke Café and Okonomiyaki :) But the best part is eating dinner together :) Finally a guest house where you actually meet Japanese !

We stayed for 3 nights!The contrast between the sea and the island is so good that it really feels like Setouchi!It’s interesting because everyone talks about it 🙌I was the only one when I stayed, but I also had the opportunity to eat with locals!When I was finally leaving, I revisited a nearby okonomiyaki restaurant, and the owner remembered me and was kind to me, and I even asked an acquaintance of the owner who was there to take me to Kure Station. I had something to offer! thank you,,If you're tired of living in the city, please give it a try.

Thank you for staying with us for 5 nights and 6 days.I had a nice, relaxing summer vacation where I regained my sense of self.At this guest houseSleep well, walk well, read booksHe values ​​his unique "three extra" moments.It was exactly as I expected, it was a wonderful guesthouse and a place where I could spend a relaxing time.A quaint old house, a tatami room, and a nap in an old-fashioned fan is the best!In the morning, I went to see the sunrise on a charinko, and in the evening I took a walk while looking at Ondo Bridge.Also, as soon as you enter the guesthouse, to your right is an exciting bookshelf lined with good-looking books that you've always wanted to read.I read this while lying down in my tatami room (lol)I had a really rich time.For dinner, we all ate delicious food prepared by the helpers, and shared half-price side dishes we bought at a nearby supermarket. Try making shaved ice.There were many people from overseas and young people, and it was a very stimulating and fun time.During the day, you can reflect on yourself and have a good time full of discoveries, while at night you can gather together and feel like you're in a warm home.There are so many wonderful places in Ondo and the neighboring islands that I couldn't go around all of them lol.The cheerful owner Acchan and the people I meet tell me all about the wonderful things lolI also got to dry the umeboshi lolthank you very much! LOL Blessed with nice weather and everyone taking care of me, it turned out to be the most delicious thing ever (LOL)I really recommend staying for a long time.It feels like “nourishment for the soul.”Oh, one thing: the toilet is a pump-type toilet, so people like me who aren't used to it might be surprised at first (lol)But half-washing? So, it's not that much of a problem.Thank you for the wonderful time and meeting!

Due to my schedule, I could only stay for one night, but I felt that it was a space where I could travel as if I were living there.It's a space where people who value dialogue can gather, where you can quickly get excited with other guests and staff. It was not a so-called ``inn'', but rather a ``share house'' experience where everyone was having fun and creating a life on the spot.I regret that it was a waste to stay just for one night. I ended up leaving after feeling like I had gotten to know the other people a little better. We recommend a trip where you can relax for a long time and gradually understand more about the people, the town of Ondo, and yourself.

I stayed for 6 days.The owner and landlady were very kind and hospitable to us. Staying in an old private house gave me the nostalgic feeling of visiting my grandpa's house.There was a shared meal system, and the curry and rice that the helper made was very delicious!The view from the room was amazing, and I would love to go there again. We recommend staying here for a long time.
