I always take care of you at orchestra training camps. The homey atmosphere and delicious homemade food are appealing. He also has a strong service spirit.

By car, it's about 5 minutes from the interchange.The parking lot can accommodate about 6 cars in a section about 50 meters apart.There are two parking spaces on the premises, so you can load and unload your luggage there.I used it for a musical instrument practice camp, and it was helpful to be able to play music in various places such as the main building, dining room, and hall.There are about 50 music stands and a drink bar, which is very helpful.There are a variety of meals on the menu, but the portions are generally large.

It's more than the price!The customer service is great and the facilities are good.It can be used for music training camps, and even families can stay there. You can drink all-you-can-drink beer 24 hours a day, and there's even a beer server in the room (and Ebisu). Until 9pm, the cafeteria offers highballs, lemon sours, and beer, all of which are included in the all-you-can-drink plan. All-you-can-drink is 2000 yen! This time I had a BBQ set, and in addition to Yamagata beef, there were enough ingredients. We also included breakfast and lunch for the next day, but we were so full that we couldn't eat for the first time at our accommodation!

I've moved all over the place, but this is my favorite inn.Although it's a homely atmosphere, the work is professional, and the casual care creates a sense of comfort.Despite being damaged by the 2019 typhoon, baths were provided free of charge to disaster victims and volunteers.The landlady prepares and presents the fresh vegetables and local seafood grown by the landlady for a satisfying taste.Even in the city, the host's customer service attitude is of a high standard.The amenities and staff are perfect, and you can enjoy renting bicycles and having a BBQ in the garden regardless of the season.Relax and enjoy the seaside, enjoy seafood in the evening and vegetables with homemade mayonnaise in the morning.This is an attentive inn where you can consult with us about the usability of each of the three buildings.

I go to music training camp every year.It's originally an inn where the food was delicious and the mom's hospitality was wonderful, but now that my son has taken over, the cooking has improved a lot (lol)You can fill up on delicious food at a reasonable price!(Vegetables are grown by mom!)The building is not new, but it has been renovated from time to time so it doesn't feel old.The water area is new so it's comfortable.Due to its location, it tends to be sandy, but the inside of the building is kept well-maintained.Some rooms have kitchens, so you can use them for a variety of purposes other than training camps. Of course, it is also recommended for swimming in the sea as it is equipped with an outside shower.Although there is a charge for towels, we are grateful that shampoo and conditioners such as Dove can be used for free.I've been coming here for almost 20 years, and it's amazing how the inn continues to improve in some way every year.I’m looking forward to going again next year!

Thank you for your help through telework. I jumped in and was asked which luxury inn? I have no complaints about the service provided by the owner, so I give it a 10 star rating. Where on earth did he train?The room feels old, but it has a retro feel and is spotlessly clean. Feels like coming home. I want to stay the night next time.
