The bathroom and toilet were thoroughly cleaned, so it felt clean.The baths are briefly cleaned after each person has finished bathing, and the hostess is called from the first floor when the bath is finished.There is a time limit until dinner is ready, and once it is ready, the landlady and others will be called from the first floor and we will have dinner in the rooms on the first floor. It was delicious.Because it's made of wood, you can't hear people's voices or movements. I slept soundly because I was used to it.You can check out when the landlady who is sleeping in the same building wakes up.

Dinner was the best! They asked if there was anything I couldn't eat, so even if you don't like or have allergies, you can stay with peace of mind.There was a lot of rice as well as side dishes, but for me, the ratio of rice was just right for the triangle meal. (It's not pictured, but they also served figs for dessert)The seasoning is gentle and well-balanced, and the sugar and oil used are of high quality, so even if I eat a lot, my stomach doesn't feel heavy and I actually feel better the next day.There are no water facilities in each room, and the baths are for home use only, but it was nice to be able to take a relaxing bath by myself.Moreover, there was a bath, washroom, toilet, and one for women, so I felt safe using it.The shampoo was of very good quality and my hair felt great the next day. My hair, which had become stiff because I used hot spring shampoo without having to carry my own shampoo, was revived.The room is large enough for one person to relax. Clean futons on tatami mats.I used a yukata, but you can also lend me pajamas.I didn't have any drinks with me, but there was water in the dining room, which came in handy.I was very happy and enjoyed talking with the landlady during meals and when leaving the inn.I really wish I could go every year, stay the night there every time, and if possible, stay a few nights and enjoy the Koza River.This is a highly recommended inn.(The entrance at the back of the image is the parking lot side. When you look at the entrance, the parking lot is on the right side.)

I used it the night before a cycling event on the Koza River.For someone like me who loves guesthouses, this is more than enough, and to say the least, it's the best.The landlady was a hospitable person who was kind and fun to talk to, making it a very relaxing stay.The dinner had a large number of items and was very satisfying, and you could tell that they had put a lot of effort and care into making it, and it was all very delicious.I'm usually a big eater, but for breakfast I had a bowl of fast food that was so delicious that I couldn't finish it all.There is also a restroom and sink for women, making it a very clean and woman-friendly inn.The futon was fluffy and comfortable.I slept soundly.There was a communal refrigerator, microwave, and Tefal pot, and there was a sense of hospitality everywhere, which made me feel really happy.I left early in the morning for an event, but they kept my backpack with me and I completed the race safely.It was a great memory to be able to enjoy the view of the Koza River.Next time I would like to canoe on the Koza River.I'll definitely be attending next year's cycling event, so I'll be looking forward to your help again.

Although I was visiting by motorcycle, I was able to park my bicycle in a garage with a shutter.The rice tasted like home-cooked food, but it was very delicious.
