Four years ago, I stayed there for one night. But a nightmare awaited me.Even though it was midsummer, there was no air conditioner in the room, just a fan. Impossible. I couldn't sleep at all in my room, so I had no choice but to sleep in the communal space, which was the only place with an air conditioner. Why do I have to sleep in a place like this? . .The reviews are very good, but if you can sleep without air conditioning in the middle of summer, go for it. Maybe it's air conditioned now?

I had heard that I could park my car at the public bathhouse, but it wasn't open until 8:30pm (no mention in the emails), so I had to go to the parking lot in front of the station, which meant I had to walk quite a bit.Although I had booked a private room for two people, it was difficult to call it a private room because I had to pass through the shared room and had to worry about going to the bathroom in the middle of the night.

Visited in November 2018It has a pleasant Showa retro atmosphere.The owner is also a nice person, and it was great to be able to have dinner with the guests that day.(I think whether we can have dinner together will change from time to time.)I think it's good that guesthouses come in a variety of styles, but I like cozy inns like Hatomugi-so!This is an inn I would like to visit again someday 👍
