Each room in a house is rented out.It was nice to be able to use the kitchen and washing machine.It was relatively beautiful.There are not many hotels near Awa-Ikeda Station, so it can't be helped, but considering the following, ¥3,700/night might be a bit high.-Walked for about 10 minutes on a road far away from the station and with few people.-Toilets, baths (no hot water allowed), washrooms, and refrigerators are shared.

[A shared house. More comfortable than expected 😄]Used for one night from '22.08.14 (Sun). Check-in will not be done at the house where you will be staying, but at a restaurant and bar called ``Heso Salon'' located 1-2 minutes walk from the arcade in front of Awa-Ikeda Station.The actual accommodation is about 10 minutes from the station. Exit the station, turn left, cross the railroad crossing...I can't explain it in words, so please refer to a map or something (sorry, sorry💦💦) Next to the inn is a similar inn called ``Heso Camp''.There are 4 rooms in a 2-story detached house🏠️. There are keys 🔓️ at the entrance and in the room, which can be opened and closed using the number you received at check-in. It would be a pain if you forget your number when you go out, so it might be a good idea to take a photo of your number😉Since it is a shared house, the following facilities are shared.·kitchen・Toilet (1 for women, 1 for shared use)・Bath (use time 5:00-23:00)・Washing machine (available from 5:00 to 23:00)Since it's a normal house, you can cook in the kitchen as long as you have the ingredients. Write your name on the refrigerator and put things in it (pen ✏️ included). There are two trash cans in the kitchen, one for bottles and cans and one for combustibles. Plastic and PET should be disposed of as combustible garbage.Bath laundry cannot be used late at night (due to noise). Only the shower 🚿 can be used in the bath (do not fill the bathtub 🛁 with hot water). Shampoo, conditioner, body soap, and laundry detergent are provided. No hair dryer or dryer.The private room I stayed in was 6 tatami mats long with a bed, air conditioner, desk (with outlet and lighting), closet (4 hangers), and 1 trash can. The lighting in the room is controlled by a remote control. 1 x Extension Cord 1 bath towel Wi-Fi available. No modular jack/LAN outlet. No clock.What you need to bring・Toothbrush set・Shaving (men only)・USB outlet・Bath sponge🧽I'm shy, so I don't like shared houses or guesthouses, but this place was quite comfortable (maybe because there were only 4 rooms and I didn't meet many people 😅)By the way, there is no check-out. It feels like it just goes out (it feels strange, but that's the format here).The following three points caught my attention.・A little far from the shopping districtIt's not ``10 minutes from the station through the shopping street'' but ``10 minutes from the station on the opposite side of the shopping street'', which is a bit inconvenient for shopping.This can't be helped, so I'm not complaining, it's just something I thought about (on the contrary, it's good for my health!!).・There is a sound when the door of the room opens and closes.It might just be in the room I stayed in, but it makes a ``Gee~~'' sound when it opens and closes. I was fine, but I felt sorry for the people in the other rooms 😢・Difficult to lock the shared toiletOnce you get the hang of it, you can close it, but I got used to it just before I left the hostel💦Even though I don't like this type of accommodation, it was such a comfortable accommodation that I thought I might visit again😄If I have a chance, I would like to stay again🙇
