My friend and I went separately as singles because we were riding in front of each other.It was within walking distance to Nakamura Station, and the room was clean and new.The drink bar was open until 8pm, and they had soup as well as soft drinks, so I was hungry, so this was a great way to fill my stomach. There was also one souvenir sweet for each person, which was helpful when choosing souvenirs at a nearby souvenir shop.It was interesting that there were various shampoos, conditioners, and body soaps at the front desk. When I arrived, only TSUBAKI conditioner was available, so I would like to check in early the next time I use it.Regarding the laundry, it was brand new and clean, but there was a tape on the washing machine indicating the laundry fee, so I was able to wash it without worrying about how much I should spend.Breakfast was free as a benefit of Ryoma Passport. The variety was small, but it was just right for me. I was happy that there was leeple and sunflower milk, and I was able to eat salted bonito tataki. Also, the rice machine where you can choose the amount was fun, so I didn't have to eat too many carbohydrates, and the conveyor belt oven for the bread was convenient because it didn't overcook it!Thanks to that, I was able to enjoy sightseeing in Shimanto City!I had a pleasant night! I would definitely like to use this hotel next time.

The breakfast at this hotel is very cost-effective, costing 500 yen per person at your own expense.The water pressure in the shower is very strong, but there is some smell,The room is still small, but the double bed is larger and the room is larger than rooms in big cities.If the price is not expensive, it is highly recommended.

I stayed here on a business trip, and I think it's the perfect hotel for sightseeing in Shimanto! The price is reasonable and the rooms are definitely 5 stars. It's beautiful and the colors in the room have a calming atmosphere. Has the unit bath been renewed as well? That's what I think.The difference in level from the floor of the room is also small, which is good.It was quiet and I slept well.Conveniently, there is a restaurant called ``Ichimonya'' on the same premises. Serves delicious food.The parking lot is spacious and free of charge!Overall, it is also recommended as a base for sightseeing at Cape Ashizuri, the submerged bridge on the Shimanto River, and houseboats.
