The location is convenient. It only takes about 6-9 minutes to reach Jinlin Lake. The room is comfortable and you can enjoy the pantry space in the living room, which is convenient for shopping and cooking at home. …

Transportation information:It's quite far from the JR station. If you have luggage, I suggest you take the bus back and forth. It takes about six minutes to walk from the bus station to the B&B. There is a slope and the road conditions are not good, so dragging suitcases will be a struggle. The bus frequency is not too frequent, but it is very punctual. It is recommended to take a photo of the bus schedule to keep. (See attached picture for bus schedule information) The actual location is in an alley, so you have to refer to the video provided by the store to find the location.advantage:1. The environment is warmly decorated and makes people feel like they are at home. Kitchen supplies are provided.2. You can take your luggage to the public area and store it in advance. Although it is unattended, the neighborhood seems to be in good security and no problems have been encountered.3. The surroundings of the open-air hot spring are elegantly decorated and consistent with the photos.4. The homeowner can communicate fluently in English.5. The guest room on the first floor is large.concern:1. It belongs to the type of B&B where the host will not stay in the B&B. The advantage is that there is no interference except for check-in procedures. However, staying alone in a strange house with many doors and a large house will still make you feel a little unsafe. Sometimes the phone at the B&B will ring, and I don’t know if I should answer it. (After arriving at the B&B, you can use the B&B phone number to call the host, and he will show up within five to ten minutes. The air conditioner is on during the day, so it is quite comfortable to wait in the living room)2. There will be bugs and spiders in the open-air hot spring area. After all, it is inevitable in an outdoor space backed by a mountain.3. No meals provided. There is no breakfast or dinner. There was "really" almost no food to eat around at night. I originally wanted to eat Kamakami Rice at 4:30, but the stall was sold out early. In the end, I just walked to the nearby convenience store five to ten minutes away to solve the problem casually.
