I used Plus One, which allows you to stay with your pet. This time, I only stayed for one night, so I only had a short amount of time to relax inside the hotel, but the cleaning was thorough and I was able to spend a comfortable time there. There was a wide variety of food and I thoroughly enjoyed it. If possible, it would be helpful to have a dog run in a corner of the building where pets are allowed. The staff and everyone are so kind. I want to repeat it.

I stayed for one night on a weekday Friday for glamping. It was raining and it was difficult to move to the restroom inside the hotel. There was a free drink bar inside the building, and there were many places to relax. The public bath was also large and nice. It was a happy buffet of various dishes including seafood in the morning and evening! Next time I would like to stay in a room inside the hotel.
