It was about 5000 yen for a night without meals.I went by bike, but was it under the eaves? I stopped it. The people at the inn are kind.It is located in the middle of downtown Tsuyama. It's an inn that seems to have a lot of history and has a great atmosphere that makes you feel quite nostalgic. There is a mini garden surrounded by the inn, which also serves as a smoking area, but is quite distinctive. And it was even better because it was in a room overlooking us.There were a lot of elementary school students on the training camp staying there, and although I can't rate this as a ryokan, it was noisy and the atmosphere was half as bad.Clean bathroom and toilet. The room was also good

This is an old-fashioned inn located in the center of town from Tsuyama Station. The inside of the building has always had a nice feel to it. …

The food is delicious. Sozuri nabe was better than expected. I had soba served with shabu-shabu and topping of rice cake, and it was very delicious. A group of about 20 people used it just for meals.

This is the first time I have tried to stay in a traditional hotel. The hotel looks very historical, but it is kept very clean!!There were several packs of snacks on the table in the room, and there was a hot water kettle beside it. There was already hot water in it, and there were tea bags in the teapot. I almost missed it!!The boss is very kind and can use a translator, so language is not a problem~~

I visited you on a trip with friends.The inside of the hotel has a stylish interior that gives you a sense of history, and although it has a good old retro feel, it was also very clean and I was able to spend the night comfortably. Above all, the hospitality of a certain senior, the landlady, and the young landlady was so warm that even though it was my first time staying there, I felt as if I had been here for the first time in a long time, and I had a great time and had a great time ✨The Sozuri Nabe that I saw on TV was also really delicious. I highly recommend it🍲The bakery recommended by the young proprietress was also very delicious! I would love to visit you again. Thank you so much ♡

Thank you, seniors, wives, and mothers.At Otafuku-san, you can spend a relaxing time in a historic building. The Sozuri nabe for dinner is exquisite! I look forward to staying with you regularly in the future.

I used it for motorcycle touring with a friend.This is THE travel inn! When you walk down the hallway, there's a slight creak - in a good way. The bathroom and toilet are covered in nostalgic tiles, but they are so clean that they look like they were newly installed, and the miniature garden in the smoking area is a relaxing space. It was a nice and quaint inn that brought back nostalgic memories of visiting my grandfather's house when I was little.The pheasant hotpot for dinner and the soba noodles at the end were both delicious and went well with the local sake.If possible, I would like to bring back the ``breakfast'' service, which was said to be on hiatus.*The covered bicycle parking lot is a great point when looking for accommodation for motorcycle touring.
