I used it for diving.I originally planned to stay for one night, but when I told them at check-in that I wanted to extend my stay, they kindly agreed (this depends on room availability), but they were very helpful!Use room 205. The Japanese-style room is 6 tatami mats long, with a separate kitchen, bathroom, and toilet.I think it can comfortably accommodate up to 3 people.There is a side entrance next to the main entrance, and there is a shower where you can wash away sand from your feet.Great location, with restaurants, 24-hour supermarkets, and convenience stores within walking distance.It was a perfect stay.I would like to use it again (^^)

The location was very good just very close to Ginza street. Staff was super helpful as they helped us to book two restaurants for two nights (we would not be able as website only in Japanese). …

Up until now, I had only stayed in hotels, but this was my first time staying at a pension. I was worried, but the room was on the first floor, spacious and clean! There is also a refrigerator and a microwave, so I felt like I was at home lol. The sea is about a 10 minute walk, so after heading to the sea in my swimsuit, there was a place next to the smoking area where I could wash off the sand, which was very convenient! They even lent me a bucket to set off fireworks at night, and the staff were very nice! We were able to make some fun summer vacation memories. thank you very much.

It's a building that looks like a private house, like an apartment. It was great to be able to relax with my kids.There's a free footbath nearby, and it's downtown? I think it was about 10 minutes walk to the sea.When I was following the navigation to get to the hotel, I noticed that a landslide made it impossible for cars to pass, so I took a quick spin around. You cannot turn from the footbath to go to the inn.The host was friendly.

I used it for the first time last year. This is my second time using this pension this year (July 2023).This pension is the best.There seemed to be few guests, probably due to the bad weather and many cancellations, so we had a relaxing time.The host's response is very good. They will try to carry your luggage for you and ask you various things.You can rent a cassette stove, so we brought just the griddle and grilled meat, and we bought seafood from the market and brought it in for a party!We have all the cooking utensils such as frying pans and pots, and we have a refrigerator large enough for someone living alone, so we can chill the food we buy without needing a cooler box, and it also has a freezer.You can also borrow chopsticks, spoons, forks, and tableware. Chopsticks, spoons, and forks are disposable!There is a 24-hour Aeon supermarket nearby, as well as a Daiso.The rooms are well-cleaned and beautiful. There's no dust falling either.It's very close to Shirarahama!Before the season starts, there is a free parking lot near the sea, which is convenient.The person at the pension told me about it.If I couldn't park, I was told that I could use the pension's parking lot if there was space.Just those words make me happy.Some people seem to enjoy hot pot in the winter, so I wanted to go there for a relaxing stay in the winter.
