As rumored, the amount of food was huge and the whole family was full.The ingredients were fresh and very tasty. The local dish, stewed octopus, tasted nostalgic and delicious, similar to what my grandmother used to eat.

I stayed there with my dog. The sashimi was the best. I thought that the sashimi I had read in advance would be one plate for two people, and I thought that would be enough, but when I arrived at the dining area, I was surprised to find that there was one plate for each person. My wife loves sashimi but couldn't finish it all, so I enjoyed it. There are many kinds and I am very satisfied. Also, if you can't finish the food, you can take it back to your room. It became a nightcap snack. Please bring your own cage for your dog. You can relax in the spacious Japanese-style room. The staff are also kind. My wife wants to go again.

It was great!The room had a tatami bed on the tatami floor, so I was able to sleep comfortably.As soon as we arrived, we took a relaxing family bath.What surprised me was the food! The young master said that the sea was rough and they didn't have much in stock, but everything was delicious! Although it was a large amount, I ate almost all of it, and had the portions I couldn't eat served for breakfast. I was so impressed with the meal that I forgot to take a photo...The building is old, but it is clean and there are no problems at all.This is a recommended inn.

I stay at hotels and inns several times a year, and the lack of hospitality was one of the top three. The rice is also normal. There was no friendliness at all and I was disappointed. The room is old but normal. I will never go there again.

The food here is the best in quantity and taste ♡The inn itself is old, so some people may be concerned about it, but you can purchase discount coupons for nearby hot springs at the inn, and I always try to bathe in various hot springs before arriving here!It's a family affair, and my son's dishes are all homemade and really delicious ♡The fish available varies depending on the season, but since I buy and handle it myself every day, it's fresh and really delicious (・∀・)! ! I go once a month! !It's tough right now due to the coronavirus pandemic, so I hope you do your best and don't go bankrupt (T_T)

I stayed here for 1 night and 2 days last month with my husband and my dog. I was charmed by the extremely fresh sashimi, the luxurious dinner, and the thoughtful hospitality of the owner and his wife.As the inn in the same area where I regularly stay is currently closed for renovations, Did they accept pets and have good reviews? This is the first inn I used.We used a local subsidy to stay for one night and two meals @ 12,000 yen, but the result was only disappointing.For example, for dinner, there was an assortment of sashimi, but there was no such fresh food that is unique to Amakusa, and the number of items was small, so it was very ordinary and disappointing😂The ending raises several questions about the customer service attitude of the mother (landlady) and son (young husband)🤨Was it because there was some trouble when paying? We were given a free bottle of beer to cover the cost of drinks at dinner, but we don't want to make our guests feel uncomfortable.Also, I mentioned several times that the 💡 in the bathroom was broken...did it get replaced after that?We are currently in a difficult situation due to the coronavirus outbreak, but as long as we are doing business, we would like to provide customer-centered service.I have traveled and stayed in many places, but this is the first time I have stayed at an inn where I was not able to take a bath on the day of the stay.

The taste of the food was pretty good, but the facilities in the room. I was disappointed in 🔑. (About 50 years ago 🔑) I've been living for over 60 years, but this is the first time I've seen it.Unfortunately, there is no hot spring.

It feels like a good old guesthouse and inn.I was able to enjoy the fish dish so highly that it was hard to find any flaws!The owner's detailed explanation of the dishes was also very impressive.It was an accommodation that I would like to use again!

At first glance, it's hard to see from the road, so you're likely to miss it.The inn is very Showa-era and has a retro feel to it.As mentioned in other reviews, the amount of food is so much that you can't finish it all.I guess the woman could eat it all, but I was told that I could take it back to my room, so I did.I would give it a 2 star for the overall cleanliness of the room and the bathroom, but considering the food and cost performance, I would give it a 4 star.Also, there's nothing around the inn, so if you're staying overnight, it might be a good idea to bring some stuff with you.

I stayed there with a bunch of friends to participate in a research group. It's an old inn, but the food was amazing.The sashimi platter was more than three times as large as a typical kaiseki meal, and I was very satisfied with that. In addition, there was a large boatload of wild sea bream served, followed by salt-grilled small sea bream, boiled yellowtail, and so many other things that I couldn't finish! ️The fish lovers also enjoyed drinking 🎵 I would like to come again.
