Stayed in July 24thThe entrance is in the parking lot of Motsuji Temple.It reminded me of my childhood training camp at a town-run inn.The toilet, washroom, and shower room are shared, but they are clean and comfortable.Dinner was a motsu nabe set meal at a nearby izakaya.For breakfast, I had three pieces of bread from a bakery in the parking lot of Motsuji Temple.The price was very reasonable, and you could take a bus from the parking lot of Motsuji Temple to Chusonji Temple, which was perfect for sightseeing.I took the 8 o'clock bus to Chusonji Temple, and there were not many people, so I was able to take a good look at the Golden Hall.

I used it when traveling alone. The manager was very dandy, kind and easy to talk to. They thoroughly explained how to use the facility. This is an accommodation facility rather than an inn. Specifically, there are shared showers, toilets, cooking facilities, and refrigerators, and the only amenities are towels. Only toothbrushes will be sold. If you were to imagine it, it would be like staying in each room in a one-story building. The cleaning is thorough and there are no issues. I thought maybe foreigners could stay there, but it's pretty quiet since it's early spring. It seems that one or two cars can be parked in the parking lot, but I think it's better to check when making a reservation.

It was a very good accommodation. Equipped with coin laundry, kettle, refrigerator, etc. There are towels in the room, and the facility is clean. You can park for free at Motsuji Temple's parking lot. The host was very nice and explained a lot about Hiraizumi to me.

[Facility equipment]Showers, toilets, washrooms, and refrigerators are shared. You can also share the washing machine, microwave, electric kettle, etc. in the kitchen. The room is very simple, just a bed, a TV, and a small desk. (Western style room)There is a hot spring facility a short walk away, so it would be nice to take a bath there (although I didn't have time to use it this time).One bath towel and one face towel are provided. There are no toothbrushes (they seem to be sold separately)Wifi was fully equipped and I was able to use it without any problems.It's located at the back of the parking lot of Motsuji Temple, so I think it's a very convenient place for sightseeing, but it's a little far from the station and it's at the back of the parking lot, so it's pitch dark at night. There are no vending machines inside the hotel, so it's a good idea to bring your own drinks.[Press point]However, because it is very clean and simple, it is a comfortable room. When you open the window, you'll find yourself surrounded by grass, but it's also very comfortable.The staff at the facility were very kind and made me feel very welcome. They respond flexibly to various situations and are attentive to all kinds of things.*Since it is a simple accommodation facility run by the town, it does not have the kind of services that you would get at a traditional Japanese inn, so if you are looking for that kind of service, you may want to avoid it.I think it's more than worth the price considering it's a simple stay.

Since it was a simple accommodation, there was no bath, but the shower room, toilet, sink, and refrigerator were shared. This is not recommended for people who are concerned about the noise from the neighboring houses. Although it's cheap, it's clean and the staff are friendly. Above all, the atmosphere was great as it was right next to the World Heritage Site Motsuji Temple.

The inn is not very large. There is no air conditioning in the hallway and kitchen so it is very cold
