I stayed here for one night on July 29th.The owner was very kind and the facility was thoroughly cleaned, so it felt clean and comfortable. I would have liked to stay there for several nights if I could.The location and facilities are perfect for surfing.Unfortunately there were no waves, but it gave me an excuse to come here again.Next, I would like to go to the points you recommended. thank you very much.

It's a perfect place for surfers! You can walk to the point while wearing wet clothes, and best of all, it's cheap. Moreover, the room was kept clean and I was very impressed! The owner was also kind and made my trip comfortable. It was worth the 7 hours I spent there (lol)

One of the best places I’ve stayed on my walking pilgrimage so far. The owners were so kind and the rooms were clean and comfortable. There’s no included meals, instead you order from the cafe they run that has very good food and good prices. It’s a better value stay than many lodgings with included meals. I highly recommend it! It’s a must stay for walking pilgrims!

I stayed here one night during my o Henro tour and loved it. The rooms are nice and clean. Private bathroom and toilet. The owner have me newspapers to dry my shoes. I could hang my raincoat outside on the porch. They also have a cafe where you can eat things like toast, noodle soup, baked fish and fried rice. They made me a vegetarian dish. They have very good hot chocolate. Lovely couple. There's no breakfast but when you go on your way you'll pass a convenient store.

The best guesthouse I've ever stayed in and I've been on the pilgrimage route in Shikoku for 3 weeks now.The price for my overnight stay was ¥4,000. In my opinion, this price is almost too cheap for such a beautiful guesthouse with such nice operators. (October 21, 2023)The people in the guesthouse, a married couple, are very, very nice and helpful people. They are extremely lovable.The guesthouse is absolutely clean.You have a beautiful room that is in very good, new condition.The entire property is in a very well-maintained condition.There is a cafe with delicious food at a very reasonable price.My absolute top recommendation!!!!

It is run by a husband and wife team.The room and bath faucets were sparkling clean. The awareness is amazing!He kindly explained the pension system to me.Although our interaction (stay) was short, I felt the greatness of the owner and his wife.
