It's super retro❓, so if you don't like old things, this is not for you. It's been cleaned thoroughly, so there's no problem. Since I was staying without meals, I didn't eat, but I don't have high expectations. There are no towels and tissues in the room. There's no toothbrush cup either. It was a good decision to bring my own.The room was spacious and nice.

It has the atmosphere of a guesthouse. There is no hot spring, but you can walk there because you have a discount ticket for the hot spring. When I said I wanted to eat Saga beef, I bought it at a butcher shop and the landlady cooked it for me. Although it was an extra charge, they were very kind.

It is said to be a former red-light district inn!It's an old inn that you don't see very often, but does the inside of the inn have any traces of a red-light district? ?Looks like the owner is working alone. The room is ok if you just want to sleep (lol).To be honest, there are some parts that are dirty (toilet, sink, refrigerator), so if you are a nervous person, you won't want to stay! Breakfast was simple but delicious!

I was skeptical that it was still open because there were only old reviews, but it was business as usual.During the three-day weekend in October, when all the other inns in Takeo were fully booked, I took a gamble and called here and found that it was empty.5,500 yen per night including breakfast.It's good that the price doesn't change even in high season.The bathroom and toilet are shared.I didn't use the bath because I went to the public bath across the street from the inn (I think that's probably the only customer there).The room and toilet were cleaner than I expected.Yukata, towels, toothpaste, teapot, and refrigerator are also provided.The breakfast was simple, but it was enough to satisfy those who think that rice, natto, and miso soup is enough.

It was originally a red-light inn called Manchurou, and has a history dating back to the Hanazono red-light district in Sasebo City, Nagasaki Prefecture. At the beginning of the Showa era, a red light district was opened in Horai-cho, Takeo Onsen, and Manchurou was built where Bunmeiro was located.After being classified as a red line, and after the prostitution prevention law came into effect in 1958, it became a ryokan (traditional Japanese inn) where people were taken in, and now it continues to operate as a regular inn.Inside the building, you can see the remains of a red-light district, including a Taikobashi bridge and a courtyard. The owner is a kind person, so if you say, ``I want to know about the history of the red-light district,'' he will tell you.For more information, I have written an article about the background on my blog ``Adventure of Knowledge''!
