The long-time owner quit and moved to Shizuoka.Looks like it's being started by a new owner.How will it change?I'm looking forward to it.

I used it during my summer vacation.The inn had a homely and nostalgic atmosphere, and the food was home-cooked and luxurious, with a home-cooked feel.Of course, it cannot be compared to a certain famous hotel or resort hotel, etc., but if you are expecting such service, please pay 100,000 yen and go to a place that says so.The 24-hour bath is extremely warm and cool enough that you don't need an air conditioner, so it's recommended for those who enjoy staying at a guesthouse.However, the mattress on the bed was a bit stiff, and the next morning my back and hips were a little sore.

On July 13th, the end of the rainy season, I stayed overnight in Tokyo at 34 degrees Celsius, looking for a cool place. This is a pension located quite far up the mountain in Kurumayama Kogen, near the ski resort in winter. There is a temperature difference of around 20 degrees Celsius compared to the city, and when I step out of the car, the wind is cold and I feel cold.On the top of the mountain, gas is sometimes generated and it feels very nice to be surrounded by negative ions.The inn was called a pension, but it was hard to find because it was in the back of a villa area, but there was nothing around, and the lowland plateau spread out below, and the green mountains as far as the eye could see.I checked in with a refreshing feeling.Is the building old? Is it open or not?No, is this a storage room? Is there a separate entrance?No one was there, and there was no sound.I went inside and called out to them, but there was no response.When I went outside and called, a woman answered the phone and said she would come. As I was waiting, he popped his head out of the entrance I had just entered and said, ``I'd like you to press the doorbell here.''sorry. I didn't see it. . .Musty smell inside, probably due to the high humidity outside.The room was on the second floor, but there were windows on two sides.When you open itcool thingIt's cool.It feels like staying in a mountain hut right before the summit.The room was really old and looked like a room above a warehouse in the countryside and didn't have any fancy features, but it was good enough for me and although I thought it would be a little tight for a couple to stay there, I was able to stay there as the evening went on. I put my hand on the window and looked at it, and sometimes I thought, ``Oh, I like this feeling,'' and sometimes I didn't.In the evening, we had a meal centered on wild plants and vegetables, including pork teppanyaki, which was very delicious and very satisfying.Maybe it was because I had a little to drink at dinner, but I got sleepy early and slept for about two hours, but then I woke up around 11 a.m. and couldn't get back to sleep after that.As I expected, I opened the window and saw the street shining brightly in the darkness. As I watched, thick white gas suddenly rose from beneath the mountain and immediately enveloped the inn.There seemed to be a spring water flowing right next to it, and while I could hear the intermittent sound of flowing water, I could see the faint light of a streetlight about 100 meters ahead, which was also magical. The time was just past 1am.“Ah, I really like this feeling.”The next morning, when I approached the hostess at check-out, she turned out to be a very friendly and cheerful person.Should we have talked more?It's a great place to get away from the heat in the summer.In winter, it's probably skiing.This is a pension I would like to visit again.

Everyone except the owner is too cruel! !I can't stop the abuse from her! !I looked at the reviews and was honestly surprised to see so many things that had not been improved.Of course, I will never go there again.

illumination? It was cracked and there were lots of crickets.The bath sometimes had no water, which was inconvenient.We also had to pay for towels and a TV, which was a shame.The owner's service is very courteous, but is there any onion skin in the soup? It contained.That's too bad

I see many people mentioning things like aging buildings and insects.Certainly, I think it's showing some signs of aging.In fact, if you prefer thorough sanitary conditions at the level of a city hotel, I think it would be difficult to find a pet-friendly pension or cottage (> <)This is Nagano.It's in the mountains.If I were to completely remove insects, I would first be able to touch nature (^ー^;)I think it depends on the person himself/herself whether he sees aging as a ``taste'' or ``dirty''.I thought it would be a good idea to choose a hotel based on what is important to you at the time.I was surprised by the insects, but it's a mountain.If you open the window, you should be prepared for them to come in even if you have a screen.I was happy to be able to interact with the friendly hostess and the cute dog.

The building is old, so you can feel the damage everywhere, but thanks to Momma's personality and the dog's presence, it's a good place. You can see mountains such as Yatsu Kaikoma Senjo Houou from the room's cabinet.There is a bath in the room, but you can bathe in the communal bath all day long. The vending machines are currently closed, so you may want to bring your own drinks.
