It was a very old pension. It feels nostalgic somehow. The sea was right in front of me and I enjoyed the view! The personality of the owner and staff was also good. Breakfast was better than dinner.If you have already decided to check in, it would have been helpful if you had turned on the air conditioner in your room...(bitter smile)

It's a scam. I made a reservation through Rakuten Travel. To quote you, the plan says, ``Homemade, hearty home-cooked meals filled with the aroma of the ocean, including fresh locally caught sashimi, grilled turban shells, and daily seafood in tomato hotpot.'' There was no grilled turban shells, and the dinner was very simple with just the food in the photo and rice.The vegetables in the pot were only cabbage and no mushrooms, and although it was said to be homemade, the burdock salad for the appetizer was commercially made.I was very disappointed because the rice was different from what was planned.There was no hot water in the bathroom so I washed my face with cold water.There was a stranger's removed socks in the room under my yukata, which made me feel very uncomfortable.
