Take a municipal steamship and cross to Katsura Island. The pension is run by a husband and wife, and is currently limited to one couple. I felt sorry because I was traveling alone. The room, bath, and toilet are all on the second floor. The room size was sufficient for one person. It is also recommended to take a walk around Katsura Island at sunset. All the meals are delicious and you can enjoy your meal while admiring the view. On the way back, I was able to be sent at a time that matched the time of the steamship I wanted to take. I had a great time from beginning to end.

This is a late reply, but I stayed last year in November 2022. It costs 520 yen one way to the island where the pension is located on a city-run boat.Rather than being a private company like the still-remembered Shiretoko sightseeing boat, Matsushima is a public means of transportation operated by the city with the responsibility of safety, and is rooted in the lives of the people of Matsushima, one of Japan's three most scenic spots.However, for tourists, considering sightseeing in Matsushima from the sea is an activity that can be done for a round trip of just over 1,000 yen. It's very cheap.When I arrived at the port and was about to walk to my accommodation, I was approached by the owner, even though I had not requested a shuttle.We were kindly provided with a car to pick us up, and we thought, ``I see!'' We looked at the map and thought it was sweet, but there were more uphill climbs than we had imagined, and if we hadn't been provided with a pick-up, we would have ended up at the hotel exhausted.Bad reviews on Google and Jalan. Looking at Mom's answers to that question, I have gathered information in advance that she seems to be a bit of a picky eater.However, I was actually looking forward to it as I thought that was the real pleasure of traveling.And then we were greeted by expectant mothers.“Oh,” I understood at first glance. This person is a "naughty person". You can already tell their dignity by their clothes and aura. I wonder what it is. I wonder if I should use the expression ``a person who is too well-bred.'' I felt so strong that I felt that my ancestors were probably members of the nobility.Now, my hobby is photography.I thought I was trying to talk to her, but the cameraman who was taking pictures of the inside of the building probably irritated her. After that, I guess I avoided him, and I never met him directly.If you want to open your mother's heart and have full interaction with her, I think you'll be successful if you approach her with the mindset of ``I'm going to invite you to my boss's villa and treat you to a home-cooked meal.'' perhaps.What exactly is a customer?There is also a saying by Date Masamune, who ruled Matsushima, where this pension is located.``If you are patient and gentle and come to this world as a guest, you will have no troubles.'' I think that's true. Rather, as a guest, it should be the guest's responsibility to abide by "manners," "morals," and "rules."Limited to 2 groups per day. Depending on the number of guests staying, it would probably be in the red compared to the labor force.It was a place to be thankful for, as it was run by a husband and wife who owned the restaurant, so they accepted even those who were alone.Think about enjoying life. Thanks to all of you, we were blessed with fine weather this time, and we were able to take some great photos. I will upload a photo, so please take a look.I wish Pension Onigahama continued blessings in the future.

Located on Katsura Island, it takes about 20 minutes by municipal steamboat from Shiogama Marine Gate. If you let us know your arrival time in advance, the host will come and pick you up. It's about a 10 minute walk, but I think it's a good idea to walk around the island.There is also a beach nearby, and it's fun to walk along the beach as there are lots of fallen seashells.The building is a white detached house, and an elderly couple will welcome you. There are 4 guest rooms, separated into a living room and a bedroom, each with approximately 12 tatami mats, so you can spend a relaxing time. It's a nice room with lots of sunlight and a view of the ocean from the window. The interior is also tasteful and makes you feel like you are inside a painting.Meals are served in the hall on the first floor, where you can enjoy a luxurious time with the tasteful interior and quiet background music. For dinner, we were served a course meal, and we were welcomed by an elegant-looking wife and a friendly host.If it's a warm day, I think it's nice to sit on a bench in the garden and forget about the hustle and bustle of the city and just enjoy the scenery.P.S. When it comes to evaluating people, it depends on their different sensibilities. It is natural that everyone is different in terms of birth and upbringing, way of thinking, tastes, and hobbies. Therefore, I would like people to judge things based on their own experience, rather than judging them as good or bad based on reviews.

We stayed for 2 nights and 3 days, and on the first day they came to pick us up from the ship and drove us there.The atmosphere of the inn was very nice and there were paintings that we had made ourselves. I had a full course dinner. We can't eat meat, but they were very flexible with that.There is a good atmosphere for both the couple and the sense of security that makes them feel at home.Please try it once! !

Make a reservation at Jalan.After work, I bought some sake at a convenience store and had a drink with a friend before heading to the ship.When I tried to check in with an empty can because I didn't have a place to throw it away, I was told, ``We don't allow you to bring your own cans!''Even though there was no mention in Tojaran's explanation that you cannot bring in food or drinks, the landlady told me in a very harsh tone.Furthermore, if I wanted to leave the hotel key with me, I should have just told them, ``I'll keep it,'' but they insisted, ``I'd be in trouble if I lost it, so could you leave it here?!''The man who picked me up and dropped me off was a very nice person, so I have a bad impression of the landlady.I'm not saying that you should treat them as if you were a customer, but I would like them to choose words that are at least considerate to others.I was looking forward to the beautiful sea, nature, and delicious food on a remote island in search of solace, but instead, I became irritated.

It was my first time staying at a pension. I was grateful that you came to pick me up at the pier.However, the food was a little creative (I think it was close to creative cuisine), and for those of us who aren't used to eating that kind of food, it might not have been to our taste.Also, as other people have written, I sometimes felt that the hostess' customer service was a little harsh. Having previously worked in the customer service industry myself, I have never believed in the slightest that the customer is God, but I have sometimes thought that there is no need to say it that way. Or is that what a pension is like?

I am the person who wrote the review for Jalan.I can't reply on Jalan, so I'll write here.↓Written content below↓It was my second stay.When I stayed there before, I was impressed by the delicious food and the kind old man, so I wanted to go back. This time I used it on a women's trip around the age of 30.I thought I should go, thinking that the number of customers would have decreased due to the coronavirus, but I was hesitant to visit because I didn't want people from other prefectures to come, so I wondered if it would be better not to go.When I arrived while drinking beer on the ferry and opened the front door with an empty can in hand, the landlady suddenly scolded me, saying, ``We don't allow you to bring anything in!''I was suddenly surprised...After I rested for a while in my room, my friend said she wanted to go for a walk, so I went out. When I told the landlady, she said, ``I'd be in trouble if I lost my keys. Could you please leave them there?''I think there is another way to say it...My friend got annoyed and kept apologizing since this accommodation was my choice.I was sad because I had good memories from when I stayed there before.I know it's going to be difficult due to the coronavirus, but please do your best.↓Reply from the inn below↓Reply by: Pension OnigahamaDear Chii, Thank you for staying with us on September 17th. Please forgive me if I have caused you any discomfort due to my misunderstanding of words. However, how many inns are there that prefer customers who check in with a can of beer in hand? I think there are good manners for guests staying overnight, such as disposing of your luggage before check-in, and putting it in your bag even more if it's empty. It seems like the hours are too bright for a woman of a certain age to drink.It's not a place where you can just go out and make a room key. What's more, the fish on the holder was hand carved. There are no two items that are the same, so we cherish them. You have no position if your words are ignored. Is it because it is an inn on a small island? Is it because of the ease with which you came once?It is very disappointing.My reply is below ↓You came to pick me up at the pier, right?If there was a place to throw away empty cans, would it be in the car you're picking up?Or should I have just littered the dock?When someone told me, "You're not allowed to bring in anything!" and I replied, "Sorry, it's an empty can," you said, "That's a problem, isn't it?"Don't you have the kindness to throw it away?Since it's an island, I thought it would be a hassle to dispose of even an empty can, so I took it home.Also, is it weird for a 30-year-old to drink alcohol at 6:30 p.m.?I think it's a matter of personal opinion, but I think it's up to the individual to decide how they spend their holidays, how long they drink alcohol, etc.Isn't it okay to say "Please leave it there" when it comes to your room key? ?For many years now, we have provided a place where people can spend time on their own, whether it's a long-awaited holiday, a long-awaited trip, or friends, family, or lovers.I think it's good that accommodation facilities have rules as well. If you just do what your customers tell you, you won't be able to do business.However, what is the original purpose of accommodation facilities?I don't think everyone knows the rules for staying at this inn.First of all, why don't you write down the prohibitions of the inn (a rule book that has a lot of prohibitions written in the inn left in your room) on the accommodation site?

Katsura Island is a small island located 30 minutes by boat from Shiogama Port. ||It's a small island that takes 30 minutes to walk from one end to the other. ||The sunset from the nearby beach was beautiful. …
