I stayed with some friends. We were given separate rooms for non-smokers and non-smokers, and the facilities were well-cleaned, so we had a comfortable time. The Buddhist vegetarian cuisine was delicious, and the rice seemed to have been grown by the owner. , Hot springs are also good.

Shukubo or accommodation in the area of ​​Mount Haguro, part of the Dewa Sanzan group of sacred mountains. The rooms are tatami, quite spacious, they even have a TV, free Wi-Fi. Dinner is made with local products and is very good. There is also ofuro (Japanese very hot bath), although it is small and more than two people cannot fit inside.
