I stayed here on my way from Nagaoka to Aizu via Niitsu.I think it's a large facility that can be managed by two people.The room I stayed in was on the second floor with steep stairs, and it was a little noisy, so if you don't mind that, it's fine.There is also a cooler and fan.There seemed to be one other group of customers, but they seemed to have arranged for us to go to another building, so it didn't really bother us.I knew there was a table tennis table and billiards, so when I asked about it, I was told that the building itself had not been open for a while. However, since I had kids with me, I let them open it and enjoyed it.If you are unsure about making an online reservation, it will be safer to confirm over the phone.

This guesthouse in this out-of-the-way town is run by a cute older couple. He is an artist (sculpture). Visiting this tiny town in the mountains won't be everyone's preference, but we loved it.

I stayed here for the first time while on a mountain trip from Ibaraki. This is a photo of a monkey I encountered on the roadside on my way to my hotel. I especially enjoyed the meal with the husband, his wife, the gentleman guests, and the French ladies. Both dinner and breakfast were brown rice and natural foods and were very delicious. Above all, the personalities of the husband and wife were charming, and I felt as if I had returned home and spent time with my family. Also, please stop by when you go on a mountain trip. Please stay healthy forever.

2023/5/8 The three of us, three Taiwanese, were traveling by bicycle. We started from Kyushu Fukuoka Airport and rode through here for 29 days. We booked this B&B on booking yesterday."Hesaikan" is a truly authentic Japanese traditional B&B. The owners of the B&B are a 75-year-old couple. They treated us very warmly and gave us great convenience. The entire house, whether it is the living room, dining room, The kitchen, bathroom, second floor guest room...we were all allowed to use it. Thank you very much!

I stayed here while riding my bicycle from Fukushima to Niigata. A place surrounded by very beautiful nature. I met an antelope on the way there.There were a lot of monkeys, but they were small and for some reason they didn't attack me, and when I heard about them, they were just eating vegetables.I had my bicycle stored at the inn, and the owner and his wife were kind and warm.I made a reservation on booking.com, and although I made a mistake on the date and couldn't change it, I called the inn directly and they helped me.This is a wonderful Japanese inn.Towels are also provided. There was also body soap, conditioner shampoo, and hair dryer. You can also cook in the kitchen. There was a small store nearby that sold vegetables and other ingredients.There is a piano and a guitar. The husband is an artist and there is an art museum nearby. The statue of Hope in Shibuya is the work of the owner.There are many photos displayed inside the inn, and it's fun just looking at them.If you like guesthouses, you'll love it.

The accommodation itself was great.They are the best unusual couple.I do not recommend it to people who are not good at speaking,This is the perfect place to stay if you love traveling.I definitely want you to use it as a reference.The official website written on this Google map isIt was not authorized by the store owner.This site is probably made with good intentions.The owner of the review is not the person himself/herself,That's also the owner and his wife.I showed it to you in a funny way while drinking lolEveryone's opinions (good comments)I delivered it,I own the site and the owner.I made it official (?) of the shop owner.This is not only an official website but also an authorized website!I find it strange that people come from overseas for some reason.When I show you the site,I was happy to see old photos.It can sometimes be difficult to make reservations online.Let's all call!
