First of all, let's eat! The taste is good, and the portions are huge, like a buffet at an inn. And it tastes good!The master is also very friendly and fun.

I stayed here in September of R6.There was a building along the national highway. There were no shops around. Parking is available in front of the building.The building itself seemed to be a few years old, but it seemed to be kept clean, and I was surprised at how clean the communal washrooms and toilets were.The room was a tatami room, and although it had an old-fashioned feel with a fan on the wall, it also seemed to be clean. There was no refrigerator, but we were told that we could use the large refrigerator at the entrance of the building. Pensions generally have thin walls, but it was tolerable even for a baseball and soccer player.The bath was like boiling water, but there was a device called a hot spring bath in the changing room. I felt that there were a lot of tubs compared to the size of the bathtub.The food had a wide variety of items, and I also enjoyed the all-you-can-eat cheesecake. It's an all-you-can-drink Uri fruit drink, and although it's not as easy to drink as a commercially available product, since it's handmade, I was able to enjoy the original taste.The customer service was not very polite, but it was pleasant and not pushy, which is common among older people. I hope that you will continue to do your best and continue your business.

The hot water in the bath was good. My skin has improved. There was so much dinner that I couldn't finish it. There was unlimited fruit wine, and the plums were delicious. For breakfast, miso soup was served in a pot on top of a shichirin. It tasted warm. I was relieved to be able to enjoy nature in a relaxed manner. They let me stay in my room until my train time, which was helpful. thank you very much.

I stayed here after using Appi Ski Resort.It used to be a training camp facility for children.Baths and toilets were shared, but they were kept clean. The amount of dinner and breakfast was so voluminous that I couldn't finish it all. The food was homemade and delicious. I would like to use it again at an affordable price that does not require luxury.Dad's homemade fruit wine was a free drink. The cheesecakes had a variety of flavors and were delicious. I wish they would only sell cheesecake. It was rich.

I've been here many times already.I came to Hachimantai to stay here (lol)The inn is not suitable for people looking for a luxurious feel as the toilets are shared, but it is a very clean inn.The food is so plentiful and delicious, so I've made adjustments and come back to stay here.I was able to finish the meal for the first time!The photo is of breakfast. Breakfast is full with lots of hot food.My kids couldn't eat all of it, so I borrowed a plastic wrap to take home the leftover rice from dinner (rice cooked with maitake mushrooms, which was really delicious).There are so many manga that you won't have time to read them.The owner was also very kind and we had a great time.

I was looking for a nearby accommodation to refresh myself, and booked this pension, which had a 5-star rating despite nearly 200 reviews on a certain travel site. The building is more like a guesthouse than a pension, but the rooms, baths, and toilets are well-maintained, and above all, the taste and quantity of the food was by far the best of any destination I've been to.Dinner on this dayRice cooked with maitake mushrooms and grainsMiso soup with clamsPickled Chinese cabbageBoiled Koya tofubroccoli saladpork steakSteamed red fish in foil3 pieces of sashimicorn potagepineappleRare cheesecakeEverything was handmade by the owner and served freshly cooked, freshly steamed, and in perfect condition according to the meal time.I managed to finish the entire meal, but it was definitely too large for people with small appetites to finish.As I've said many times, the seasoning is great.I would also like to hear from you if you have a chance.
