There is a roadside station near JR Onagawa Station. I was worried about the black mold on the bedding, but I had a comfortable stay.

I went with a bike stay plan!I was able to get a maisonette type room.I feel like I earned it. Up to three people can stay.It's so beautiful that you can't believe it's a trailer house.It was. The room itself is not largeIt makes sense considering the price. YupoppogaThe location is good as it is close and you can walk to the port.I think it's very good.However, the surrounding shops are closed at night.

It was my first time staying in a trailer house, but it was just like a normal business hotel. The difference is that the ground contact surface is a tire, so the footsteps echo. I had everything I needed. There is a hot spring right next door, and it's next to a roadside station where you can walk to the sea, so there was plenty of food (please note that there are not many restaurants open at night).

It was clean, quiet at night, and very comfortable. Rooms facing the railroad tracks may hear some train noise, but there aren't many trains, so I think it's okay.I also liked the greetings and cheerfulness of the female staff at the reception.
