Established in 1984, this year marks the 37th anniversary. It seems to be one owner. The owner said he was 60 years old, so I guess he built this place when he was 23 years old. The owner is friendly, quiet, and has a great atmosphere. It seems that it is run by a husband and wife. The steak was said to be free of refills. Huh, does such an inn exist? I couldn't believe my ears. The equipment is not new, but it is well maintained and cleaned, so I have no complaints.

A pleasant couple responded kindly. The food was also extremely delicious. This is a hotel where you can relax and enjoy steak and rice refills, as well as all-you-can-drink wine. The bath was also good❗
