“Rather strange place to stay.”

We stayed in a room at the back of an antique shop and had to walk over slippy stones to reach a toilet that was actually part of a coffee shop; the door to the room/shop was “locked by a bamboo stick, wedged at an angle,” so I wouldn’t stay there again. On the bright side, the location was nice enough, the car park was fairly convenient, we asked for extra futon and it was provided straight away, and the recommendation for dinner was good indeed. Breakfast was minimal, just one slice of toast, a cup of coffee, a small cup of yoghurt, and a few pieces of fruit. The overall score was 4.0/10.

I was blown away by this hidden gem in Himi; the host welcomed me with a friendly smile, chatted while performing an impressive tea ceremony, and the room was generous in size with a classic wooden Japanese bathroom where I could set up a warm bath outdoors. It’s the perfect spot to stay when exploring the area.

The room was roomy and comfortable, and everything I needed—restaurants, the station, and other facilities—was within walking distance, making access easy. The welcome drink of matcha was delicious, and the morning coffee was also tasty. The proprietress had a good sense of humor.

“女将が楽しい　少し変わった宿”

The proprietress was fun, but the bath was shared.

The proprietress’ stories were entertaining and the matcha was very tasty. For dinner, you should definitely ask her for recommendations. There were children around, so a TV would have been nice, but adults could relax and read books comfortably.
