Good location. Next to the beach. Buses run from the front. A short trip to the store. The best thing was our own Onsen on the terrace.

Stayed with a friend after the Benkei Festival.The next day, I decided to stay at this hotel to participate in beach yoga at Shirarahama Beach. This hotel is in a great location, about 3 minutes walk from Shirarahama Beach.Although it is an old hotel, it was kept clean, and the facilities and customer service were good. Some rooms come with footbaths, some have shampoo bars in the hot springs, and some have showers at the entrance to wash their feet. Check-out was at 11am, so I was able to enjoy the hot springs after yoga and relax.One thing I was a little disappointed with was that the facility was old so the toilet had a strange smell. It is a Western-style toilet with a washlet, so there are no functional problems.

Since it was the off-season, we were able to stay there quite cheaply. The open-air bath attached to the room was quite spacious and relaxing. There was no food so please be careful.

The hotel location is perfect💯! Just across the road is the white sand beach, and there are many gourmet restaurants behind the hotel! Right in front of the hotel is the bus stop: Bailangbang. The room is large enough. The only small drawback is that the room is a bit old. It is recommended to bring a private bath in the room.

The location is great, right in front of Shirarahama beach. It's an old inn, so it has a nice atmosphere. In particular, the hot springs are open 24 hours a day, so you can take a bath anytime, sometimes around 2am. It's like having the open-air bath all to yourself! It's the ultimate luxury.When you arrive, you may be able to check in first and park your car in the parking lot in front of the inn. There is a parking lot in the back, so you can basically park there and enter the hotel by trudging along the hallway from the direct entrance to the inn.It's basically a Japanese-style inn, and some rooms are equipped with semi-open-air baths, which can be quite erotic (lol). Especially during the coronavirus pandemic, contactless was recommended, so I was particularly taken care of by that room.However, I often stay at Shirahama-kan, which has an open-air bath that is open 24 hours a day. In the summer, there are many beachgoers, and there are outdoor sand showers, so I think this is an inn located at Shirahama Beach in the summer.The inn is located in the middle of Shirahama, so it's quite convenient as there's everything nearby. There is also a shampoo bar where you can choose shampoos with various scents.

It's right in front of Shirahama, and the hot springs are boiling.This time, we had a room with a small open-air bath. What's more, I started hearing the voices of grasshoppers at night, and was able to experience the beauty of nature and get rid of my fatigue.Good service, rich. Clean well.Also, it would have been great if the footsteps of the guests (especially children) on the second floor didn't sound like the rumbling of the ground. Did the window on the verandah shake considerably from the vibrations of footsteps? Since it's an open-air bath with a nice atmosphere, it's quite a waste.I complained to the receptionist after 10pm, but the response was smooth and helpful. It seemed like he was used to it.Also, the service was perfect, including inflating the float.
