Even though it's a business hotel, the gap between the rice fields right in front of you is irresistible.Well, it's true that there are no shops within walking distance, but you can easily go to a restaurant within a few minutes by car or bike.Can you find a surprising place to eat? ?This logic cannot be applied to people on foot, so it is surprisingly convenient for people other than people on foot.The rooms are so clean that I have no complaints.

It was a quiet location surrounded by countryside. There are no supermarkets or convenience stores within walking distance, so I thought it would be a good idea to do some shopping before coming.Vending machines were installed and sold cup noodles and sweets. (More expensive than convenience stores)There is a tea and coffee machine where you can drink as many cups as you want.The hotel looks like a renovated building that used to be a community center or a nursing home, and the private rooms are spacious and you can change into slippers at the entrance, so it was comfortable to move around.The large public bath was large enough to accommodate about 4 or 5 people, and the water was slightly hot. Shampoo, conditioner, and body soap are well stocked, and there is also a shower room separate from the large bath, which was useful when you want to get things done easily.There is also a shared microwave and kettle, so you can bring frozen foods, cup noodles, etc. for dinner.

Children also use it on field trips for club activities.Looking for a cheap place that includes breakfast?This is how I ended up.There's nothing around.It was the bare minimum, but it was very good.The hot springs are warm, but the bottom of the bathtub is a diatomaceous earth mat.It felt good, like stepping on it.There is a washing machine and dryer in the changing room.The inside of the facility is also clean.Recommended for just staying overnight.Payment is made in advance.There are vending machines.As for the beer, Asahi and Sansan Beer?! There is one each.There are also cup noodles.Tea, water, and coffee are also available for free.It was a Japanese-style room, but there was a faint scent of cypress...There is a mini fridge.

Last minute reservation during Golden Week. There is no bath in the room, but there is a private bath where you can stretch your legs and take a bath.Although it is a business hotel, it was originally a welfare facility, and is fully barrier-free.The room is spacious and beautiful.Please note that there are no shops nearby.There was also a free drink corner.Card payments are possible, but PayPay payments do not seem to be possible.The staff also responded kindly.

It's a little far from Hitoyoshi, but it's quite convenient if you're traveling by car. The parking lot is OK for up to 4 ton trucks. This place is convenient compared to downtown.It's cheaper if you stay for consecutive nights, so it's perfect for long-term stays.

The location is about 5 minutes by car from Hitoyoshi IC, and about 1,500 yen by taxi. Once the Kumagawa Railway is restored, it will be a few minutes walk from Kawamura Station, making it an unexpectedly good location.However, since there are no other shops nearby, we recommend preparing the ingredients in advance.As for the payment method, I confirmed that QR code payment is possible.It used to be a day care building, soThe entire area is barrier-free, the entrance has a roof that allows cars to drive in, the washbasin in the room is large, there is a balcony terrace, and there is a large public bath (private rotation system) instead of a bath in the room.Disadvantages include poor soundproofing, waiting to use the washing machine and dryer at the same time as the private bathroom, and the fact that it gets cold in the winter and makes it difficult to heat up the water (depending on the location).Until the flood disaster in 2020, the restaurant was running an inn in Hitoyoshi, so it will be restarted in a slightly different location.I wanted to support them after learning about what happened during that time.

2023.10.14 Stayed alone. The impression is that it is a little far from Hitoyoshi city. This is an inn that stands alone among the fields. The customer service from the front desk staff is pleasant and pleasant. The room was a single Western-style room, and the furniture was new, well-maintained, and clean. The bath can be reserved for private use, but this was my first time using a large bath by myself. There are not many guest rooms, so you won't have to worry about people coming and going, and the hotel has a calm atmosphere.
