I went to Hateruma Island looking forward to it, but as soon as I arrived at the hotel, someone half-sick said to me, ``We don't have a reservation, did you really call this hotel?!''I still had the hotel's number in my phone history, so I showed it to her, but she asked, "Is this really your number?" So I tried calling from the history column on the spot. Then the phone at the hotel rang, and when I told her that I was calling after all, she said something I didn't understand, like, ``Well, there's no need to be so angry. You're still young.'' There was no apology, and there was no other place to stay, so I returned to Ishigaki Island in tears. I don't want to give even 1 star, it's the worst.

There was no doubt that the people at the hostel were kind.However, it appears that the attached store is no longer open.The room was 6 tatami mats in size, but it didn't have a TV or anything.The air conditioner was a coin timer for 100 yen per hour.This means that the actual accommodation fee will be about 1,200 yen more expensive.When I put out the hamburger that I was planning to eat in the evening, it turned black because of small ants that I didn't know about. I was surprised to see ants coming out from under the tatami and forming a line. I tried to get some insecticide, but the people at the hostel seemed to be resting, so I just sprayed them with alcohol to disinfect their hands.The next day, my legs were bitten by insects.It's an inconvenient remote island, so you can't expect the same quality as on mainland Japan, but I would have liked to know this information in advance.

The rooms are clean for the price and you don't have to worry about sharing showers or toilets.However, I wish they had told me in advance that there were no towels and toothbrushes.The shop was closed when I took a bath, so I had to dry myself with a hand towel.He's just a kind old man.

You can tell us what you want or want to know!The facilities are very simple, like a training camp, but there are relaxing spaces such as terrace seats, making it perfect for a one-night or two-night trip!Also, the cleaning is done well, so you can feel safe in that area!If I had to be greedy, I would be happy if there was WiFi and hangers in the room!

The shared toilets, baths, and private rooms are all very clean.There are communal shops and bicycle rental shops nearby, making it very convenient.Since it's a remote island, I had given up on seeing some insects, but I was really happy that I didn't see any insects lol.The room was also a private room with a lock, so even though I was a solo female, I felt safe.I was able to enjoy the starry sky at the spot you recommended!I would like to thank the people at the hostel for being so kind to me.Please let me stay again when I go to Hateruma.
