Wonderful character. Traditional rooms with modern comforts, and the massive life-sized alien statues at the entrance were an amusing contrast to the rest of the building. Easy walk from the train station, near a couple of really cute shops and eateries, not to mention the sea and Futami shrine. The public bath was small but I went in the early morning and had a very nice soak. The obaachan who runs this place was very charming.

This personally didn't bother me but with it being a traditional, older building, it is a tiny bit run down in some areas. Also a tad pricey but it was New Year's so...

We enjoyed our nice old school experience fresh with rotary phones in the room. The rooms have an old school feel but have modern air conditioners, flat screen televisions, mini fridges with small freezers, and dehumidifiers. The bathrooms in the rooms are old. However, the bathrooms the hallways have very new/modernized toilets (i.e. spraying type) as an alternative. The receptionist was very helpful and a good host.

It was hot in the upstairs hallway. Our rooms on the same floor were cool. We did visit during the hot summer months. I would not say that was a show stopper and might be beneficial in the winter months; we would come here again. However, it is the only negative thing I can think of.

Very old guesthouse run by a lovely grandma. The rooms are huge and some have a private toilet. The onsen is small but enough for the capacity of the guesthouse. The location is amazing: at the beach front, and 5min walk along the cost to the Meotoiwa site. There is also a Family Mart not far, to get some food for the breakfast. Private free parking located 2min walk from the guesthouse.

The lady can not speak English. We'd have loved to enjoy meals at the guesthouse.

Very friendly staff, especially a lovely kind old lady, she even helped me to carry my heavy luggage to the second floor! The location of the hotel is just in front of the sea. The famous Futami Okitama shrine is about less than 10 minutes walk from the hotel. The Japanese inn is rather old and has authentic ryokan style. The room is very clean.

The hotel is a typical authentic style Japanese inn, this means there is no lift. Unfortunately, the hotel doesn't provide meals. However, there are some local restaurants nearby the hotel. Also it is possible to buy some food and drinks at the convinience store. There is a convinience store is just 7 minutes walk from the hotel.

It is a very nice and cozy place, right on the beach (which was the first swimming beach in Japan). It has a special aura, it seems a bit out of time. Special and comfortable. The area is also beautiful with interesting shops and places Nice onzen.

All good

it was a beautiful Japanese traditional property with a beautiful view of the ocean from our bedroom window. the staff were very kind and welcomed us back every time we returned. it was slightly out of the city center but that gave it an even more enjoyable rural japan feel.

there was a toilet seat that had a crack in it in our room and it could pinch a little.

The ryokan is conveniently located near to the train station and just in from of the beach. I loved immediately the atmosphere of the ryokan and the bath space. The lovely owner made me feel at home and I cannot wait to go back for another holiday.

It’s a nice, cute place, quiet as well. I had a nice and Comfortable room with a nice view on the sea. Enjoyed the small onsen. Close to the beach, close to the wedded rocks, close to the station and easy to get from there to Ise shrine. Friendly host!

I love the vintage style of the property but still with a lot of character with the life size Alien and Predator standee and small display figures.

Just the shared glasses for brushing teeth.

This is a perfect place with a cheerful host, a great location, and a small onsen (the water is not mineral, but it is enjoyable anyway). Our family felt there like home) The hotel doesn't provide breakfast, but it is possible to find some restaurants nearby, and there is a Family Mart within a 3-minutes walking distance.
