Thank you for taking care of me during my bicycle trip in Kagoshima. I was drawn to this inn and wanted to stay there, so I arrived at this inn via Cape Sata. The uphill slopes along the way were steep (there were several climbs of over 10%), and I felt like giving up many times, but I kept pedaling, determined to get to the hotel.There are no shops nearby, so you can't buy anything to eat. Soft drinks can be purchased from vending machines that can be found everywhere. If you are traveling by bicycle, please be careful not to run out of water!The shops near the inn are closed and only one vending machine is in operation.As for the accommodation, as others have written, it felt like staying at a ``grandma's house.'' If you are a nervous person, there may be a lot of things to worry about, but I didn't have any worries at all and had a relaxing time. The green tea and kumquats (?) pickled in syrup that were served to me as soon as I arrived were soothing to my tired body. The bath was also a comfortable temperature.Best of all, the dinner and breakfast were delicious and made me feel happy.It's very quiet at night and you can sleep soundly on your futon.The proprietress is an elderly person, but she is youthful and well-organized for her age. I hope you continue to stay healthy and healthy.This is an inn I would like to visit again.(1 night and 2 meals: 8,000 yen)

A valuable inn for travelers traveling along the coast on foot or by bicycle. It is thought that many people traveling around Japan stayed here. A healthy 80-year-old woman is working alone, but how long will she be able to continue? 8,000 yen per night.

I got the energy to visit the store after seeing other people's posts.I crossed the valley and the mountain and ordered a fried shrimp set meal.The fried shrimp was delicious as per the reputation.I was surprised and moved by the fact that it came with miso soup containing half a shrimp.

I only used the dining room for lunch.When I came to Hezuka Village, there was nothing there, so it's like an oasis. An energetic and energetic grandmother was running the business by herself. I had the katsudon, which was served with a soft-boiled fried egg on top rather than with an egg.The volume and taste were very delicious, and the soup and pickles were also a masterpiece that satisfies my hunger.

It really felt like ``I came to stay at the house of an old lady in the countryside who runs a restaurant.'' I was able to enjoy delicious food and sweet potato shochu. Hezuka Daidai (Hekka) and potato shochu go surprisingly well together! It was a pleasure to talk to you about various things in the area.

This is my second visit, last time I had the "Fried Shrimp Set Meal", and this time I had the "Champon". Both were delicious✨ The "fried shrimp set meal" here is a favorite, and some people come all the way from Kanoya once a month to try it.

I will never forget the taste of the spiny lobster I ate here, even though it was 20 years ago.
