Mitani Ryokan

原訂白良濱山莊温泉酒店，又是地震，又是海嘯，還是忍痛棄訂了，還是想感受一下日式民宿，選擇了長濱的三和旅館。長濱是個文化底藴深厚的城市，謹依琵琶湖，是豐臣秀吉的故鄉。每年春天由孩子們表演的歌舞伎會乘花車遊行。旅館女主人自豪的介紹他兒子也曾乘花車表演。旅館很日式，不方便的是沒有自用洗手間。老闆夫婦非常熱情，盡力滿足我們的要求。老闆娘迎來送往的笑聲不絕於耳，印象深刻年齡大了要考慮。

Staying in this hotel can be said to be the most correct and warmest decision I made during my entire trip around Lake Biwa. It’s a bit long to write, but the key points are at the end. If you are not in a hurry, you can read it carefully😄 This is an authentic Japanese-style family hotel run by a friendly couple who appear to be half-old. The hotel is located next to Kuromon Market, a quiet place in the bustle, very close to the market and Otsuji Temple ~ The interior environment of the hotel is surprisingly good. The original appearance of the old machiya is preserved on the outside. When you walk in, you find that the decoration is not old-fashioned, elegant and refined, and it is an old Japanese-style hotel with good aesthetics. The decoration of the toilet and bathroom is also very modern, the equipment is new, very shocking, well maintained, even better than many Japanese business hotels I have stayed in. There is a small courtyard outside the Japanese-style room where I live, which is unique. The breakfast at the hotel is also quite rich and has a wide variety. Many of them are local ingredients from Lake Biwa. The taste is also good. Highly recommended~ Here comes the point! The host and hostess of Mitani Inn are super warm and polite! After learning that I was a foreigner, they took great care of me! When we went to Nagahama Pier and Otsuji Temple, the host took the initiative to lead the way. He also introduced the famous products of Nagahama along the way. The male host’s hair was a little gray but full of energy. He must be very fond of the customs of Nagahama~ Before leaving, the two shopkeepers They also gave me a set of postcards from the Nagahama Hikiyama Festival. What a lovely couple😄 I was traveling alone and chose this hotel by mistake. I didn't expect it to be the biggest surprise of my trip. My stay in Changbin was very short, just one day and one night, and the weather was not good and it mostly rained. But luckily I met Mitani Hotel, and my memory of Changbin is as tender as spring rain. I wish the owner and his wife good health and success~ If I pass by Changbin in the future, if time permits, I will deliberately stay a few more nights at Mitani Hotel~

The inn is located in a tourist area, and there are many attractions in the surrounding area. I was worried that the room was a sliding door and couldn't be locked when I went out, but other than that, there was no particular problem. The breakfast was so varied that I couldn't eat it all. Lastly, thank you very much for your kindness in sending me to my destination.
