Very nice hotel and great location to enjoy the stars. Staff's English was the best during the whole journey. Surrounding nature was pretty. It's a pity that we couldn's stay longer to enjoy more.

Stay at an inn surrounded by nature! !So I went to "Shimanto no Yado"This inn is located on a small hill about 15 minutes by car from downtown Nakamura.The entrance sign installed on the road suddenly appears, making it difficult to see at night.There are two parking lots, both close to the front and back entrances.When I first entered the building, I thought it was a luxurious super public bath, but I guess that's because there is a bath for the public to use.All rooms are types that require you to go outside once.It can be a bit of a hassle in midsummer or midwinter because you have to go outside to take a bath. On the other hand, spring and autumn are comfortable because the temperature is just right.1.RoomI stayed in a Japanese style room. Minimum necessary equipment. It was just spacious. As for the sweets, there were rice crackers made from Shimanto seaweed, and they were delicious.Since I was on the first floor, my only view was of the trees. What about the second floor?2.MealsThe dinner was very delicious as it used plenty of ingredients from Kochi! (You need to decide on evening and morning hours at check-in) This alone is worth coming.Breakfast has a typical breakfast lineup. The egg fried rice is delicious. The grilled mackerel is also chewy and delicious. I had heard that Niida rice was delicious, but I was impressed by how delicious it was.3. BathSmall facility. It was my first time to enter a seawater hot spring. It was salty.I don't really like hot springs that much, but it's been a while since I've been able to relax.4.OthersI went to a park where you can see the stars, but it was about a 10 minute walk. It's extremely dark at night as there are no street lights. I could see a lot of stars there.The souvenir corner is well stocked. It's worth a look.The customer service from all the staff was very warm, and when I made dinner reservations, they advised me that there was a group of people there, so if you could avoid them, you'd be able to enjoy your meal more slowly.Well, it was a good inn.

The room has the necessary and sufficient conditions, so it feels like it's okay. A normal Japanese set meal is served for breakfast. …

Adults: 570 yen.Two indoor baths and an open-air seawater bath. It was a sauna and a cold bath.The warm water makes your skin smooth and relaxing.Another daily change? The medicinal herb bath is a little hot and feels good too.The rare open-air bath with seawater is said to be full of minerals and good for the body...The facility and the bathroom itself are very clean and satisfactory.This was my second time using it and I would like to repeat it again.

Even in the age of smartphones, there are no outlets near the bed. To get to the attached bath, you have to pass through the dirt floor at the entrance. You can't use your smartphone without WIFI in the room, there's a black G, and the food is good, but I can't praise anything else.
