The building is old, but the food is delicious and the best.I'm impressed by the proprietress's thoughtfulness 🥺.Traveling alone on a motorcycle and staying overnight in rain forecast 100% wearing a raincoatIf you have trouble eating lunch, try this.I received a rice ball. We enjoyed a delicious meal while taking shelter from the rain at Seto Ohashi Park, and safely arrived at our hotel today.I will go again with my bike friends.

Thank you for taking care of me during my Shikoku touring.Even though it's ¥5,000 for one night and two meals, the meals are luxurious, and if I want to use the washing machine, they'll do the laundry for me, and they'll even bring me rice balls and lunch boxes.No matter how I look at it, I can't help but feel like I'm in the red or volunteering!Both the couple were very kind and treated us well.Located in the middle of Shikoku, it is recommended as a base for touring!

My husband and I used it to packraft the Niyodogawa River and sightsee around Nikobuchi, Yasui Valley, Unpenji Park, and Chichibugahama Beach.The owner and his wife are very friendly and the cost is 5,000 yen for one night and two meals. The tempura and seared bonito were so delicious that I couldn't even finish the rice. I couldn't finish it so I left it behind. sorry.The next day, the forecast was for rain all day, but the owner advised me that if I had breakfast at 6 a.m. (breakfast is OK from 5 a.m. for climbers) and set out, I might be able to go to Niko Fuchi. I was lucky that it was sunny when I went to the edge. I'm so lucky that it rains when I get in the car.The sun came out and I was able to see the Yasui Valley to its fullest. We also received a rice ball bento for lunch, which we ate in the valley, and it was a very delicious rice ball. When I got in the car there, it started raining. I followed the owner's word and the weather was good in other places as well.The inn is 130 years old, and the building seems to be older than that.The accommodation feels like a home.The toilets are unisex, with simple faucets, and the doors are thin, so if you don't like that, we recommend staying at a regular hotel.The owner's good personality more than makes up for its age.I had a very good trip.thank you very much.

I used it on a solo motorcycle trip. I received a phone call the day before my stay and said, ``It looks like the weather will be rough tomorrow, but is it okay to ride my bike?'' Is it okay if I ask you to change the date? ”I was treated with great care. The hostess is very kind.The inn was similar to my parents' home where I grew up as a child, and it was a very relaxing space.However, the rooms are only separated by sliding doors and the toilets do not flush, so it is not suitable for those who are reluctant to do so.The meals are plentiful and the lodging fee is 5,000 yen, including breakfast and dinner, which is an exceptional value, so we recommend this inn to those who want to stay on a budget.Although I only stayed for one night, I am grateful that I had a good experience.

The boss and his wife were very kind and enthusiastic, it was like returning to their own home, and they even took us to see fireflies at night. Before leaving, we were given rice balls for lunch. Basically, we had three meals per night!The whole price is only 5,000 yen. This is the most value-for-money store I have ever stayed in!

I stayed here the other day based on the reviews. The only thing that happened was that it was highly rated.I was able to stay for 5,000 yen including two meals, and the food was very delicious.I enjoyed talking with the host and had a comfortable stay.Because it is located in the central part of Shikoku, some people stayed there for several nights, going out during the day and returning home at night. Meal times also seem to be flexible.I can't recommend it to people who don't like Japanese-style rooms or shared toilets, but I would like to stay there again.
