I made a same-day reservation and used the simple plan without meals. When I opened the curtains in the newly renovated and clean room in the morning, I was impressed by the beautiful view of the Seto Inland Sea that spread out before my eyes. However, when heading to the hotel at night, we had to walk through a narrow road with no lights, so even with a navigation system, it was a little uneasy.

My niece, nephew, and sister took care of me in a room with an ocean view. First of all, I was impressed by the wonderful customer service from all the staff! From the way he speaks to his smile and his thoughtfulness, he is at a level that can serve as a role model for the customer service industry nationwide.The room and the inside of the building were very clean, and the public bath was very comfortable.There were plenty of events for children to enjoy, such as collecting stickers with a high five and receiving sweets, and submitting a picture diary to receive fireworks.Enjoying the fireworks on a private beach was a great way to spend the best summer vacation with your family. Thank you very much! !I was able to enjoy the private beach slowly, and my niece and nephew were very happy, and my sister was also happy, so I was really happy ☆Thank you very much for the four days! !

The entrance to the parking lot is a little difficult to find at night. The room was clean, and there was only one air conditioner by the window, but it worked well. There is no open-air bath. It was the same place morning and night. The staff are polite and willing to be flexible even if it is late.

I had decided that I would go to Ako in the winter to eat oysters, but I'm glad I was able to enjoy the scenery near the sea, enjoy the delicious food, and have a relaxing time!

When I was playing in the sea in front of the hotel before checking in, a female staff member kindly asked, ``Would you like me to store your luggage for you?''Since I was staying without meals, I'm not sure about the meals, but it was convenient because there was a plastic bag with a handle hanging next to the yukata that I had to pick up myself.The bath felt a little hot.There is also baby soap in the bath, which is helpful.I am satisfied because my children were able to have fun playing in the sea at a reasonable price.
