The room was a little old, the weather was bad, and we couldn't see the stars.I felt soothed by petting Hiro, the Akita dog, and listening to the old lady talk about astronomical observation and telescopes, and I feel like my sense of life has been affected in some way, and I'm sure it will have some kind of effect on my life in the future. I feel like doing itI think it would be a good idea to see the observatory even if it's cloudy.The building is old, so it can't be helped, but the air conditioning and toilet facilities have been properly invested in.It was a pension that I wish I could go back to on a sunny day.

It's a beautiful place with a view that makes you feel like you're in a landscape painting. Hot springs are good.The food was delicious and the room was nice and warm. I would like to stay again.

It was my first visit in 20 years. It was a warm and peaceful space, just like the time I stayed there when I was in my 20s. Hiro-kun, a large Shiba dog similar to the Akita dog, is a cute and chubby character rather than a guard dog, and is very gentle and intelligent. The food was delicious, homemade, and the quantity was just right for me. The bath is hot as it is from the source, but I diluted it with water so it wasn't a problem.The quality of the water was good, with lots of hot water flowers floating in the water. At the end of the second floor, there was a space with lots of books, lots of sofas, and cushions, and it was my favorite place to relax and spend a few hours before going to bed.The owner, the woman, was really nice, and after spending 4 nights there, I felt completely homesick (I didn't want to go home)...There are many CDs in the dining room, and good speakers play a variety of wonderful songs.Overall, the owner's story about his love of stars was dream-like, and he also showed me the astronomical telescope, which was a great learning experience. This is a very satisfying stay. I want to visit it every year.
