A small inn run by a family. It is operated by 3 groups per day, and you can really relax like a vacation home. The breakfast and dinner meals were delicious with mild seasonings. I would like to visit you again.

As expected from a designer inn.The building is wonderful.There was no waste, it was clean, and it was very comfortable.There are 6 rooms, but only 3 are open, so I was able to spend my time without meeting anyone.You can see the ocean and the sound of waves from your room.It's the perfect place to relax and refresh without doing anything.The bath is also very comfortable and you can take a long, relaxing bath.Since we only stayed in 3 rooms, we had to take a bath 4 times, but it was great to be able to use them all for private use.

The location and building were as nice as expected.In particular, I was able to take a relaxing bath while looking at the horizon, which was very pleasant.However, the hospitality and food were a little disappointing. The people at the inn were kind, but the overall response was more like that of a guesthouse than an inn.I think I would have been happy if there had been a bit more hospitality with a smile or some small consideration. For example, when I checked in, the staff at the hotel didn't smile at me and couldn't carry my luggage, so I somehow felt sorry for coming.The food wasn't bad, but considering the price, I thought it could have used a little more effort and effort. I'm not looking for luxury, but for example, there were no hot side dishes other than rice and miso soup for breakfast, so I would have been happy if the grilled fish and dashimaki eggs were also warm.It's not that it was bad, but there were some things that were disappointing, so I'm giving it a 3 star.

It was a very nice stay. Originally there were only six rooms, but due to the coronavirus pandemic, only half of them were occupied. I rarely met other guests and was able to spend a relaxing time. The bath was small, but the water was quite warm. There is no open air. The food was Japanese food, but it was very delicious. There were flowers at the entrance of the room and bath, and each flower was different, so it was very nice and tasteful. I would like to say that the bathroom and washroom in the room could be a little nicer. I would like to stay there again if I have the chance. The location is amazing as you can see the sea.

It's been 2 years since I last visited Shirahama two years ago. Since it was winter, I was hoping that I might be able to eat some kueh, but unfortunately, it wasn't on the menu. …

A small but quiet room where you can fully enjoy the sea view, and an exceptionally high-quality bath. I wasn't able to see the sunset on the day I visited, so I'd like to visit again.

Originally, the inn only had six rooms, and on the day we stayed there was only one other group. |We each reserved our own baths, so we hardly ever saw each other, so it was very private. …
