I used it for the first time as a family of 3 on August 11-12. As everyone has posted, I was very satisfied with the quality and volume of the food and the hot springs flowing straight from the source, but even more than that, when I was having trouble getting my car to start when I was leaving, the staff were kind enough to help me out. We are all very grateful that we were able to depart and return safely.P.S. Former car company staffI was afraid I didn't hear your name, but I followed your advice and was able to return home safely to Kashihara without turning off the engine on the way. On the way home, it became clear that the problem was due to poor contact with the remote control key (the key stopped working immediately, but after I tapped it a few times it started working again), and when I got home, I found that there was no problem with the spare key. Since I found out that there was no such thing, I decided to use my car during Obon as planned and then go to my favorite dealer. We would like to thank you again for replacing the remote control key and battery of your car.

It is a B&B with a hot spring. The husband and wife owners are traditional old people who are kind and do everything with care. By B&B standards, both the facilities and breakfast and dinner are excellent. It makes foreign guests feel like they are staying in an authentic Japanese home. It would be very unfair if you compare it by the standard of a hot spring hotel. The price is three times different and the manpower is completely different. Highly recommend this B&B.

After the second day of Nakahechi, we headed to Hirataniso from the Kumano Hongu Taisha bus stop.If you get off at Waraoguchi, one stop before Totsukawa Onsen, it will be right in front of you.It is very convenient for heading towards Gojo Station the next day. The bus ride is long, but you can also enjoy the ``Totsukawa Onsen Footbath'' and ``Tanise Suspension Bridge'' along the way. I was scared and couldn't cross...The hot spring at the inn was melty.There were no places to eat near Kumano Hongu Taisha Shrine, so it was a good idea to include meals at the hotel! !

You can enter the hot springs 24 hours a day! This is the best ^_^Also, the side dishes were plentiful and delicious both at night and in the morning. The salt-grilled amago and kamameshi were delicious and I ate too much.The only regret was that they didn't have shochu.
