5/5
The staff was kind, the room was clean, and the food was delicious.The large bath is about the size of a medium bath...There are enough lockers on the women's side, but the lockers are long and narrow with three vertical tiers, so they are narrow, and there is no basket where you can take out the contents and put them in a separate place, so there is a bit of a wait time. There were times when I did. There aren't many washing areas, so you may have to wait a while when it's crowded.There are 2 each of shampoo, conditioner, body soap, and facial cleanser, plus children's shampoo and conditioner? , Pigeon body soap, and a bath chair for the children were also very helpful.I was surprised to be able to use the hair dryer in the bathhouse as part of the current trend, but the handle of the hair dryer was left folded, so I tried to unfold it as usual, but it wouldn't open, so I was a little worried.It opens by sliding it diagonally...The person in front of me may have put it away, but I was having a hard time opening the handle. My elderly mother found it difficult to use because the buttons were different from common hair dryers.But my hair is now shiny! It's amazing how a hair dryer can make such a difference. I'm happy to refer! ! It might be helpful if there were just instructions on how to use it.I thought most of the toys in the kids space were for young children, but they also have comics and picture books, and the toys are plentiful, clean, and safe.It seemed like there were a lot of people with children, but when I went there, there was no one else there and it was reserved for everyone. I was concerned about the proximity of the kids' space to the room, so I tried to use it as quietly as possible.Dinner is served in the room.The infant meal was served on a large pure white heart-shaped plate with hamburger steak, fried shrimp, corn soup, and small udon noodles, so I was happy because it seemed like a menu that toddlers would like.The udon has a strong flavor, probably Kanto style. I thought if they made it Kansai-style, the flavor wouldn't get too strong and spicy over time...I'm from the Kansai region, so I'm sorry for the taste that I'm not used to, but I left it as is.I was disappointed that the hamburger steak was a little burnt, but it was a little chunky so maybe they were trying to cook it properly.I am grateful that many of the infant meals are homemade, even though many hotels offer frozen foods.At the end, the children were very happy to receive a parfait with melon and fruits on top! !It was a nice consideration for the parents to check with the parents when to serve the parfait because it had ice cream in it.The next morning's buffet was replenished before it ran out, and when I looked at the machine that automatically dispenses pancakes and didn't quite understand how to use it, a staff member came right away and kindly explained it to me.There are lots of fruits and the children are very satisfied.There were also paper cups for coffee etc. so that you could take them to your room after your meal.Anyway, the staff were kind and the place was kept clean, so it was very easy to spend time with children, and I would like to use it again.

The location is very good, 2 minutes' walk from the seaside. Sea view, bright and clean windows. The old gentlemen who served were very friendly and polite. In the middle of the night, my new 500 yen coin couldn't be recognized after I put it into the drink machine, so the old man at the front desk trotted all the way to help me replace it with a new one. Thanks to this meticulous service attitude and professionalism, I will come back next time.

I visited Kamakura for sightseeing.The rooms have a relaxing atmosphere and are clean and nice.The food was delicious and used seasonal ingredients.It's close to the sea and you can go for a walk, so I recommend it.

The staff were very polite and it was a new establishment. I was particularly pleased with the friendly reception and restaurant staff.The restaurant seemed very busy, but he talked to my son a lot and was considerate every time he brought the food. He asked me to give him lots of extra rice.I was surprised that there was so much play equipment in the children's playground.I'm very satisfied.

The food was delicious and the employees were nice, but there was mold on the walls that looked like baby food that had been blown away (you'll notice it easily 💦), and the carpet in the room. Does it smell like the soles of your feet? It was a shame that it smelled so bad😭

The hotel is cozy. It is opposite Yuigahama Beach in Kamakura. Dinner and breakfast are Japanese style. It has a thermal bath room with water brought from the city of Atami, known for its hot springs. …

Good value for money, close to the sea.I think it's a pretty good inn if you don't expect a bath. The staff was very attentive and made some great memories.

A hot spring hotel directly managed by the National Public Employees Mutual Aid Association. ¥3,000 discount if you are a union member or alumnus! ️Although it has been built for several decades, it is only 200m from the Yuigahama entrance, close to Zaimokuza Beach, and has an indoor heated pool, making it perfect for a family trip during the summer vacation! ️The parking lot is large and free. It's almost full on weekends during the on-season period, but there's also a coin 🅿🚗 right next door, so you don't have to worry too much. In short, we recommend arriving early! ️ Unfortunately, the food will be distributed to KKR Atami!! ️The hot spring bath is available from 15:00 until the next morning!! ️Free fully automatic massage machine. If you can't easily go to Atami with your family, this is the perfect place! ️Only 300m from Yuigahama Station.
