    2泊お世話になりましたが、両日とも駅まで送迎頂きました。ありがとうございます。 夕食は、若い人向けのボリューム満点な内容でした。 2日目はメニューを変えて提供頂き、美味しくいただきました。デザートが素敵でしたが、お腹が空いてる時に食べたかったwww 雰囲気は落ち着いていました。

    We were so grateful to have such warm and welcoming hosts for our trip! It was an older place but very cozy. They were very kind and very helpful - some of the best hosts we had while in Japan. We'd love to go back some day.
