We stayed in a shiny new room after renovation. The newly renovated room we stayed in was not ready for a bathtub, so we only had a shower in the room. They were kind enough to offer us the outdoor bath, which is usually paid for, for free, so we went to the outdoor bath ♨️ However, the building for the paid outdoor bath was about 100 meters away from the hotel itself, and the system involved moving around outside without a roof in room slippers and a yukata. It was a blizzard outside that day, and the snow was sticky under our feet... It was dark outside, and we were given a small lantern, so we walked in the dark, into the snow. On the way to the outdoor bath in the rain... my slippers suddenly got stuck in the cold mud and both my feet were soaked 😱 cold 🥶 The outdoor bath itself was a beautifully constructed bath ♨️ built in a separate location, with a spectacular view below, but on the way back, of course, both my room slippers and feet got stuck in the cold, snow-covered mud and sand, and they were squishy, ​​squishy, ​​icy 🥶 and rattling :(；ﾞﾟ'ωﾟ'): I immediately went into the large public bath in the main hotel building to warm up my cold body again. I think it's a building built 100 meters away from the main hotel building, with the outdoor bath as the priority, with a view in mind, so I felt it would be more valuable to make it possible to move there safely and comfortably. For example, renting out rain boots on rainy or snowy days... installing footlights to guide the way to the open-air bath♨️ building... I think information about the special open-air bath♨️ (for a fee) is a must. It's a real shame considering it's such a great facility.

The hotel is located on the wrong side, nearly 80 kilometers away from Liangjin Wharf, and 1 hour by bus. It is dark from the starting point to the terminal station. The hotel does not provide pick-up and check-in. I walked about 3 kilometers in the dark with my luggage. No street lights. The worthy thing is that the environment is beautiful and there are basically no tourists. There are no special features and attractions.

Due to the long weekend, all the major inns were fully booked, so we stayed at this inn, which happened to have a vacancy at a good time, without any prior knowledge. When we arrived, we found that it was a decentralized hotel, which is a hot topic these days, and we decided to rent a building a little away from the building where the reception was! This building is a valuable historical building in the Aikawa area, and although it is old, it has been beautifully renovated, and the fluffy Simmons beds were extremely comfortable. What is particularly noteworthy about this inn is that it is integrated with the local community, allowing you to enjoy the charm of Sado throughout the town. We were introduced to many of the charms of Sado that we would have missed if we had not stayed here, and we felt as if we were living there. We were also impressed by the president's meticulous attention to detail and the warmth of the people of Sado. The rice balls at breakfast were also delicious. They just opened in August, so operations should improve from now on! If you go to Sado, we recommend this inn.
