5/5
We stayed with 6 people from 3 generations.As soon as you enter the entrance, the kumiko work is very tasteful, and even though it is an old private house, the facilities are modern and comfortable.The living and dining area is spacious and I was able to spend a relaxing time.My grandchildren had a great time and I'm glad we stayed here.For dinner, I made a reservation at mahoro next door. It was a special, very delicious and fun moment that felt like a mix of Japanese and French style.

5/5
Used for workdays with co-workers.There are 3 private rooms (2 king-sized rooms, 2 double-sized rooms with separate toilets and washrooms), and a dining area where everyone can work together.There is a comfortable workspace on the veranda where you can work individually!The welcome sweets, matcha terrine and coffee, were a nice surprise.You can also drink beer and soft drinks for free as a welcome drink.It seems like you can also do yakiniku indoors, so I tried it! The hot plate should be designed to prevent smoke from forming👍The bath was much larger than it looked in the photo and could accommodate three adults.With more facilities than you can imagine, you can enjoy it even in private. I will use it again
