Stayed on August 13th. The only good thing is the location. As other people have written about the accommodation, there is no lock inside the room, and there is only one hallway and sliding door. There is no toilet or sink in the room. The toilet and sink in the hallway were scorching hot, but at least the air conditioning in the room was strong. The only way to get to the second floor is by stairs.On the day of my stay, I received a phone call from the landlady at around 3pm and was told that dinner would be served at 6pm and that I should arrive by then. When I managed to arrive at 6 o'clock, I was told that the meal starts at 6 o'clock, so I would like to finish eating before taking a bath. ``Can you at least take a shower?'' I begged and reluctantly agreed. However, there is only one narrow cypress bath in the whole building (mixed bath), and it is so small that even two people cannot fit in it. The bathtub and bathtub are made of wood and are slippery. After leaving the bath in a hurry, he is led to the dining room on the first floor, but when he tries to enter the dining room through the door that the landlady passed through, he is severely reprimanded, saying, "Don't go through that!" There is a separate entrance for guests, but I couldn't see it from the building where I was staying, so I didn't know where to enter.There was a lot of rude conversation during the meal. I was told that many people from the same city as me were staying overnight, but I didn't know how to react. He then asks the question, ``You don't get a goshuin stamp, do you?'' If you are going to Hasedera Temple's morning practice (starting at 6:30), explain that the temple opens at 8:30, so you will need to go back to your accommodation, have breakfast, and then go to the temple again. It was a preface, but asking such a question is extremely disrespectful to worshipers who have come from far away. Is your husband in charge of cooking even while we are eating? They were talking loudly.However, in the morning the landlady was bothersome and didn't show her face, so an elderly man (maybe the landlady's father?) served breakfast. If you are the hostess of an inn, shouldn't you at least greet the guests as they leave the inn? That's what I thought, but I didn't want to see his face, so it was actually a good thing.Other people wrote that they enjoyed talking with the landlady, but I completely disagree. As long as the landlady is still here, I will never stay at this inn again. I have stayed at various accommodations, but this is by far the worst accommodation. I don't want to give any ☆ for the service.

I visited Hasedera Temple.Cutting kudzu in the hot weather was refreshing and a great way to get rid of the heat.

I stayed here because I wanted to see the New Year's Eve Kannon Manto Festival at Hasedera Temple. The food was delicious, but the room was old and cold. There is one bathroom. Shared toilet. There are no keys in the room. The host was kind.

I can't deny that it's priced at a tourist spot, but the noodles are delicious as they are Miwa somen. The shiitake mushroom topping is very delicious.
