“おばあちゃんの家に行ったときのような、おもてなしをたくさん探せる宿”
This place was full of hospitality. In the new era of convenience, I was glad to spend time feeling the host’s warmth. From the moment I entered, I was offered ume shiso juice and homemade cookies. Meal times were flexible and the menu was tailored to my requests. My family of four split the dinner between chicken and beef, and almost everything was homemade—dressings, miso, pumpkin salad with raisins, and pickled rice bran. The host even decorated the house with flowers and lit mosquito coils. Breakfast was unexpectedly delicious; I heard that the host woke up at 2:30 am to prepare things like yuzu jam, date chocolate, jelly, yogurt, orange juice, and dressing. I can’t quite put it into words, but it felt like visiting my grandma’s house. Maintaining a place like this alone is tough, and there are moments when things slip, but I think the guests’ expectations determine whether it feels overwhelming. If the host seems busy, offering help is fine; otherwise, just enjoy the hospitality and unwind digitally.
The only downside is that there are always many mosquitoes and insects, so that’s something to keep in mind.
