Excellent services. Traditional breakfast is amazing! Food are delicious! Although the bathroom and toilets are share, however, it was a sparking clean. Around 6 mins walk to the Main Street for shopping and 10 minutes to the station. We love this place and definitely will be back!

This ryokan is in a great location in downtown Sendai, near the rail station and other attractions. The rooms are comfortable and clean, and breakfast is very tasty, with a wide variety of foods involved.  …

This family run business is ideal in terms of proximity to Sendai station and many restaurants and shopping. The room was small for 3 of us, but perfect. Everything is kept neat and clean.  …

We stayed for several nights as a family of 3 and a 3rd grade elementary school girl. The landlady is very kind and leaves a great impression. However, the service is not excessive, and they keep a good distance while talking to you, so it is very comfortable to relieve the fatigue of your travels. I can't say that the rooms and building are new, but on the other hand, I feel like the people at the inn are aware of this, and that they place an emphasis on cleanliness, so they're clean. For breakfast, you are served hot food after you sit down, rather than cold food, so be careful not to eat too much.I am grateful that I was able to find a really good inn.It's only my first night, and I'm looking forward to staying there tomorrow as well.

best calm downThe most fun thing about this business tripA ryokan is more relaxing than a beautiful hotel.Especially when it comes to a high-quality ryokan like this one.When you enter through the entrance, the dining room is on your right, and the bathroom/toilet (this is shared)There are stairs in the front, and the stairs split into front and back half way.When you get to the top of the stairs, you'll find your own room.Settle into the traditional equipment, with futons on the tatami mats and cushions on the table.The selling point of this inn is breakfast.I ate three bowls of delicious white rice (from Miyagi).And the family-cooked side dishes are more suitable for my taste than the hotel buffet.Sharing a bathroom and toilet may be difficult for women, but the landlady (?) is friendly and attentive, making you feel comfortable.

I stayed at Mr. Hanyu's ice show in April of this year.I was from Kansai and was wondering which hotel and inn to stay at, but based on everyone's reviews, I decided on Tsukasa's and it was a great decision.I stayed at my grandparents' house. There was a nostalgic feeling of coming here, and the landlady was very kind.The breakfast was really delicious and I ended up having a second helping of rice in the morning.It was so comfortable that I was planning to check out early, but I was able to relax and relax.Hanyu's ice show is hard to win, but if I win again, I'll be indebted to Tsukasa.

I really like it here. Although I can only speak a few words in Japanese, the hostess is very nice and I feel very warm. She also prepared different breakfasts for us for two days, all of which were very delicious.The room was very clean and it was very convenient to walk to the station.

We stayed here for 2 nights with a 1 year old child and 2 adults. The landlady had a very nice personality and I felt at ease and felt like I had come home. I felt really lucky that I was able to stay there because a 3-day weekend was canceled and a vacancy suddenly became available. My children were able to get along well with me and I was able to stay there with peace of mind, and the breakfast was also kid-friendly, so they were very happy. I want to stay again, so please take care of yourself and do your best.
