Come on, brothersAfter watching the video and sharing the daily life of my Japanese neighbors, I was really moved by my experience of working and living in a foreign country.

The building used to be some kind of sanatorium, and is run by a very kind Korean owner. The Korean food dinner was very satisfying in taste and quantity. Baths and toilets are shared, but there weren't many customers so it didn't bother me.

It is located not far from the entrance to the Hira trailhead and not far from the beach. There is a small amount of parking space. It's family-run, and dinner and breakfast are available for purchase on site. …

I stayed here while traveling with a friend after being discharged from the military. The owners were very friendly and it was clean and comfortable.And there are many services. It was especially convenient because you could take a shuttle car from the station to the accommodation at any time. Shiga Prefecture is a bit inconvenient to use public transportation, but you can rent a car to get around. Unfortunately, we didn't have an international driver's license, so we couldn't rent one. There was also a small public bathhouse, so we went out and came in. You can relieve your fatigue, and in the summer, there is a swimming pool next to it, so you can swim haha.They gave me a yukata as pajamas, and the view was nice, and the mascot dog was really cute^^ I don't really write reviews, but the owners were so kind that I'm leaving it. If you're traveling nearby, it would be nice to stay here~

First of all, there is no place like this in the city for those who are tired from work. I was at a general hospital for chronic rhinitis and asthma, and when I stayed here, I never sneezed or coughed and I had a good night's sleep. The air was good, quiet, and the water was good, so my skin got better, so I came back. Since they are Korean, there is no need to communicate, and they serve both Japanese and Korean food. I always wanted to eat kimchi stew at the end of a trip, but here it is served in the evening. I hope many people don't know about this place, which is cheap and cheap. Originally, I was going to hide it and continue to use it, but it was soon exposed on other hotel sites, so I am finally leaving a review. I recommend it if you really want to rest and want a place with fresh air.
