Late March: One night tripIt is located about 10 minutes from Chugoku Katsuyama Station through the shopping street.The location is convenient for railway users (Himeshin Line).Although it looks like a Showa-era guesthouse from the outside, it has been thoroughly renovated while retaining its atmosphere.This guesthouse seems to be run by a family, and the warm and friendly hostess and the occasional sound of children's laughter when you get down to the first floor give it a homely feeling. Combined with the quiet surroundings, it's a great place to relax. I thought it was space.The food was absolutely delicious.The balance was perfect, with plenty of sashimi, meat, and vegetables.I was shown into a quaint Japanese-style room lined with dolls and antiques, and although it was still chilly in late March, I was grateful for their thoughtfulness in setting up stoves in three places, even though I was alone.If I have a chance to go to Maniwa, I would definitely stay here again.Thank you for your help.

6 people stayed in 4 Japanese-style rooms. I slept soundly and the futon was fluffy and comfortable.The landlady is very cheerful and makes you feel at ease.I was happy that the breakfast was plentiful (*^^*)If I have a chance, I would like to stay there again.

The remodeled and clean meals were centered around vegetables and served seasonal items, which made me feel full.

This is a review regarding the phone call made at 17:33 on March 16, 2023.When searching for an accommodation between Tsuyama and Niimi, if you choose a hotel that includes dinner, inquire about the latest time you should check in.They told me that dinner would start and check-in would start at 3pm, but there was no clear statement at the end. When I asked again that I was there because the Himeshin Line runs infrequently, I was given an unrelated answer, "It's crowded and fully booked."They say it's crowded, but I haven't told them the dates of my stay. When I asked him, he was silent.I guess they didn't understand the purpose of the question and thought it would be a hassle, but the disappointing phone response was that they were busy.

Maybe 3 years ago? I went to stay the night.At that time, I was traveling on the Himesin Line from Himeji Station to Niimi Station, but I couldn't find a place to stay in the right place even when I searched for ``Jalan,'' etc., so I searched for ``Accommodation'' on Google Maps. While searching, I came across this guesthouse.There was a slight smell of cigarette smoke, but I was more surprised by the amount of food there was and was comforted by the friendly lady.Last time I went on a train trip, but next time I would like to go to Katsuyama, China to enjoy the townscape with its noren curtains.

We were very grateful to this guesthouse for accepting us as we found ourselves double-booked at another hotel we had booked at 9pm, and lost our lodging for the night.

The proprietress is very talkative and friendly. It is an old-style Japanese B&B. The rooms are spacious and clean. It is very close to the main old street. There is also a large supermarket next to it. It is a very suitable place for traveling and experiencing Japan. But it may not be suitable for people who like novel equipment.
