Reviewed Aug 19, 2026お部屋は家一棟貸し切りだったので、のんびり過ごせました。 一階にリビング、キッチン、風呂、トイレ。2階が寝室でした。キッチンには、冷蔵庫、電子レンジ、鍋や食器、お箸など自炊道具は充実していて、洗濯機もあったので助かりました！ 天岩戸神社が近く、歩いて行ける距離で良い散歩になり、 スーパーも近いので、チェックイン→散歩→帰りにスーパーで食材調達して宿へ帰りました。 スーパーは18時（2026年8月現在）までの営業です。 宿に調味料はないので、自炊の際は調味料の準備も必要です。食器など使った道具は、洗って元の場所に戻します。 部屋全体掃除もされていて綺麗でした。

Reviewed Aug 14, 2026大人4人分なら台所用品は全て揃い、冷蔵庫はちょうど良くロックアイスもサービスで入ってました。 お風呂、トイレは非常に綺麗です。少し高い所に有るがスロープが有る為 キャリーケースも運べます。テレビは小さめですが、見る局数が少ないので、ちょうど良いです。三泊四日で三か所に泊まりましたが、コスパはダントツに良かった。
ハネアリを含め虫が多いので網戸は問題の無い様にして欲しい。玄関の段差が大きいので注意喚起が必要なのかもしれません。玄関の扉が大きくスリガラスなので、夜に怖い人が要るかもしれません。1階の電球を全てLEDに変えると夏場の虫の侵入を大きく軽減出来ると思います。
10/10
Reviewed Aug 12, 2026便利的廚房與特色浴池：廚房設備完善，方便我們烹煮在高千穗超市買到的頂級牛肉；戶外浴池更是深受小孩喜愛，泡湯體驗極佳。 乾淨寬敞的在地風情：雖然房屋有些許歲月感，但維護得非常乾淨且空間寬敞，充滿濃厚的日本在地生活氣息，整體氛圍悠閒舒適。 自駕友善與高 CP 值：停車相當方便，整體入住體驗物超所值，非常推薦給安排自駕旅行的旅客。
