The food was great (better than more expensive Ryokan we have been to), especially the squid. First, you can eat raw squid sashimi, then they will take what's left back and make tempura with the tentacles. With salt these are delicious.

I used it for one night the day before. First of all, the front desk and hallway were hot.The food was said to be very delicious, and I was looking forward to it because it was served in my room, but the meal was delayed and when I ordered alcohol, it never came. I was very disappointed that I couldn't eat while drinking slowly. My child's lunch came with fried shrimp, so even though I asked for mayonnaise, it was brought to me by the end of the meal. I was told that the staff were busy. Indeed, many people came to stay.You should know in advance that there will be a lot of overnight stays. I think they should set up staff for this.The refrigerator in the room was also very old. I was really looking forward to it after reading the reviews, so I was really disappointed. However, the squid was very tasty.

Tabiyado Yobuko is an accommodation facility that combines Japanese style and modern comfort, located in Yobuko-cho, Karatsu City, Saga Prefecture. It's a great location with a panoramic view of Karatsu Bay and Yobuko Port. The early morning sunrise and sunset are especially beautiful, and the view from the window is like a painting. Yobuko is famous for its fresh squid dishes. At Inn Yobuko, you can enjoy dishes made with plenty of local seafood, especially squid caught fresh in the morning. In particular, the ``live squid'' is a must-try dish and is the best value for money.

The food was good. After being shown to the room, I entered the cooler. The air conditioner in the aisle is not working. The sunset from the window was beautiful.

My husband and I used this hotel on the first day of the New Year's three-day holiday.The parking lot is sloped in some places and is far from the entrance, so I think it would be better to go to the entrance first, unload your luggage, etc., and then park in the parking lot.Although the inn is not new, it has been rehomed and the plumbing was well kept.It seems that the previous owner loved Italy🇮🇹, and the lobby is bright and pop-like.The restaurant is decorated with many Italian picture plates.The receptionist and Mr. Nakai make you feel at home.The room was a twin room with a small raised area, and we were able to enjoy dinner in the comfort of our own room.After eating Yobuko's squid as sashimi, you can have it tempura or grilled with salt.Everything was delicious.I arrived an hour late, but everything went smoothly since I had contacted them.Since it was my birthday, I received a photo as a surprise gift.There was no bath in the room, just a shower, and we had to use the large public bath, but it was comfortable with a large indoor bath, an open-air bath with a sea view, and a sauna.After checking out, we had a nice trip around Yobuko's morning market and nearby tourist spots.This time I used a 1,000 yen rental car from Saga Airport.It took less than 2 hours from Saga Airport without using the expressway.I would like to visit in a different season next time.

I think it's a good old style inn.Just looking at the outside of the building, I wondered if this accommodation would be okay, but it was clean, the staff had a very good customer service attitude, and it was a pleasant stay.The large public bath was not a hot spring, but it had a great view and a sense of openness.The bathhouse has horse oil shampoo, conditioner, body soap, exfoliant, and charcoal face wash.The changing area has hair dryers, cotton swabs, and tissues.Other amenities were in the guest room, and each person was given a bag for each person so they could take it with them to the bathroom.Women (brush, hair comb, toothbrush, cleansing gel)Men (razor, shaving gel, comb, toothbrush)The best part was the quality of the food.This time, I went for the ``Yobuko Plan,'' which included fried abalone, and although it was only 1,000 yen different from the basic plan, it also included abalone sashimi. The final dish, Tai Chazuke, had 8 sea bream fillets, making it a highly satisfying plan.I was able to relax and enjoy the meal in my room, and the large selection of items was delicious and filled me up.There are mixed reviews, but if you want to eat delicious seafood, I highly recommend it.

The guest room was small, but it was kept clean.It was enough. To be honest, I was in trouble because I wish there were more outlets and the light at the entrance was too dark.The hot springs are spacious.The outdoor view was also nice ♪The sauna was too dry and painful so I couldn't relax.I would be happy if you could improve it ( ´ ▽ ` )The customer service is all very friendly.It felt goodYou can eat in your room and the staff have good customer service.I do recommend it.The food is also perfect.

I could see the sunset from my room and it was so beautiful! If you walk a little further, you'll find Yobuko Ohashi Bridge, which I think would be fun to stroll around.As for the dish, I was surprised by the squid sashimi that was made for the first time! ! I don't like squid, but this squid was chewy and very delicious. Squid tempura also came out, and it was delicious as well.

She was a very nice woman who guided me to my room, provided me with meals, and provided me with futons!The bath was clean and the temperature was a little high, which was perfect as I wanted to stay warm this time of year!There aren't many individual meals, but there are a lot of them, so you'll be very hungry🈵.The view from the room was good and I would like to go there again if I have a chance.
