It was a large inn where you could feel the history of an old folk house.The owner of the store was polite, and even though there were many rooms, each room was of good quality, and every part of the old folk house had been renovated with great care, making me feel like I was able to fully experience the old folk house. It was an inn.It was a hotel that made me feel like it was a waste to stay for just one night and two days, and that I would like to come back again.Here are my detailed impressions.First of all, the owner of the store was very responsive and took the time to explain the details of this old Japanese house and answer any questions I had.Thank you very much for your wonderful accommodation even though I was late to check in.I was also able to feel the love that the owner had for this old folk house.As for the old folk house itself, renovations were seen everywhere, just as the owner said, ``Based on the concept of life in the days when people lived by candles.''In addition, the inn has been renovated with careful consideration to creating a ``space where you would live in'' and ``a space where you could enjoy an old folk house.'' The house has been renovated in a modern style, retaining the atmosphere of an old folk house but without any inconvenience, and I never felt inconvenienced when eating, cooking, taking a bath, or washing my hands. (Especially, the fact that the electricity in the bathroom was a motion sensor was very useful at night.)They thoroughly explained the necessary items such as towels, so I was able to stay at the accommodation without any hesitation.The bath was made of cypress wood, which was a comfortable space that felt like a hot spring.In the ``Space where you can enjoy an old folk house,'' we were able to experience spaces that we would never see in everyday life, such as a stucco-painted alcove and a sliding door with a single picture.However, the fact that it had air conditioning was also a big plus.The staff provided explanations and explanations about each room (even at late hours), making it a very meaningful and interesting experience.It was an inn that I would want to come back to again.It has also become one of the old folk house inns that I would like to recommend.Polite response. I was really interested in a renovation that was functional but didn't disrupt the atmosphere.Just staying at this inn was a big memory of my trip.Thank you very much.

An inn where you can rent an entire old folk house.Accommodation is possible for even one person.The space right after entering the entrance is dominated by high ceilings.The rooms were air-conditioned and the kitchen was well insulated, so I was comfortable.The wooden bathtub allows you to stretch your legs and take your time.As this is a simple lodging facility, meals are not provided, but we can introduce catering services and provide breakfast ingredients.

We used the venue for an event rather than an overnight stay.The calm space, neatly appointed interior, and hearth in the center gave me a feel of the good old culture.I want to stay the night sometime
