🏣215-1 Sumiyoshi, Sado City, Niigata Prefecture🅿️🚗…Yes.🚌…There was a bus stop near the inn.About 5 minutes by car from Ryotsu Port*Check-in 15:00Check out 10am*It is built next to Sado Ishuku Road.It is a place where you can see the sea across the road and beyond the pine trees.Judging from the exterior, the inn looks like a fusion of Japanese and Western style. I wonder...the view from the window was wonderful (white waves were rising, probably due to the typhoon).When I asked about it, I was greeted with a smile and told that there were many people coming to the inn early today.It was a relaxing time to have free coffee ☕ in front of the front desk.When you are shown to your room, you can see the sea outside... Spending time between the buildings is a daily life that is truly relaxing.There was a hot spring bath and an open-air bath (I came in while it was raining...I wish there was a sedge hat...)Bathed twice😊I was surprised by the food that was brought to me one after another, and my eyes, soul, and stomach were satisfied...I had a hearty breakfast as well.I would appreciate it if you could visit me again someday.To all our employees (maybe your family? Hope you are doing well)

It was my first time on Sado Island, my first trip, and the hospitality was amazing!The rooms were well-cleaned and comfortable, and the hot springs, both open-air and indoor, were pleasant!You'll be able to enjoy information you can't find on the internet and hear stories from locals, so you'll be able to enjoy your trip from now on (^^)Thank you very much for your help!

The rooms and hot springs are lovely, but the real surprise is the dinner and service. Dinner was super luxurious, with a whole crab! And he's very delicious! Grandma even came to help me pull the crabs. She was so nice. It's a pity that I don't understand Japanese, otherwise I would be able to understand their enthusiasm better.

I was hit by a car from Minami Ryokan.Even though I was driving at a legal speed, I crossed the center line and was hit.I felt sick.It is unclear what they are doing with a car that has the name of an inn written on it. When I made a complaint, the call suddenly hung up. No apology either. I don't want to stay at a hotel like this.

The atmosphere was good because the people at the inn were kind and fun.I was so happy that my child's rice came with potato chips, pudding, yogurt, and more! (From my elementary school daughter)The food was delicious and very plentiful. Everyone at the inn was very welcoming and gave us warm hospitality.After being informed by the staff at the inn, I went to the forest behind to see the crested ibis, and I was so moved that I could see it just taking off from the ground! !I would definitely like to stay at this inn again when I go to Sado.

Great food, warm customer service, clean rooms, and convenient location.It's impeccable.If you want to eat local food from Sadogashima, I highly recommend it.There are many different types of local sake, and if you ask, they will tell you what brands they have.I visited in mid-April, and there was plenty to choose from, including oysters, wild vegetables, and crabs. The oyster gratin was really delicious.The people at the hostel are kind and comfortable.I will definitely stay here again when I come to Sadogashima.There is a free coffee server and paid Japanese sake tasting in the lobby.
