In the snowy season of March,I was lucky enough to use it.I could have used a business hotel near Akita Station or Morioka Station, butI used Shogetsu Ryokan, which is near Tazawako Station (about 3 minutes walk).Near Tazawako Station,There are no other options for inns, soI am aware that I will be using Shogetsu Ryokan.The interior has been beautifully renovated,The rooms and hallways are all beautifully appointed.We have all the amenities you need for your trip, soI was able to stay comfortably.I left the inn around 5 o'clock in the morning, so I didn't eat breakfast.I was surprised at how large the dinner was.It was in March,We also had tempura made with spring vegetables.There seem to be some restaurants and izakayas that are open at night near Tazawako Station, soIt seems that some guests are using a combination of these things.There is a large supermarket called Bifre nearby,We also have Tsuruha drugs, etc.It may be a convenient inn due to its location.I also used the bath twice, once at night and once in the morning.Thanks to all of you, we were able to have a comfortable stay.I don't have any work at Tazawako Station,Also, if you have work near Akita Station,I am thinking of using Shogetsu Ryokan as well.

I used it for one night for work. I had a delicious meal♪ Both dinner and breakfast were delicious! Self-serve coffee and tea were also available.There is no toilet, bath, or refrigerator in the room. There is a TV, air conditioner, and fan heater. There are two bathrooms on the first floor, each for one person. Face and bath towels are provided.The washroom and toilet seemed to have been renovated and were very clean.There are also comics on the landing of the stairs, so you can take them into your room and relax.Thank you very much for your help♪

When I arrived in Akita, I thought that I needed to find a place to stay for the night, so I looked around a lot, but I couldn't find any place to stay.I finally found Tokoro Matsuzuki Ryokan, which was vacant😝It was a homely place, like a guesthouse. I didn't have time for dinner, so I went shopping at a nearby supermarket and ate it. I stopped taking a bath because it was similar to a bath at home. You can buy drinks and feel safe as there is a shared refrigerator that you can use freely 😅 Breakfast was delicious with individual meals. (/≧◇≦\)Thank you for your help😆

Comfortable, delicious, lots of food, close to the station, friendly, and relatively reasonable prices: it has all these elements. If you are a student with a little money, you will be glad you chose this place. Since many truck drivers and people in the construction industry come here, the male ratio is a little high.

It's a bit of a walk from the station, but there's a pub nearby so you won't have any trouble finding food.There was a bookshelf on the staircase landing where you could read manga as much as you wanted!
