大人二人、幼児乳児の4人で三連休前の金曜から2泊しました。宿泊料金は2食付和室のお部屋で10万円超です。連休もあり、近くで年に一度の音楽フェスが開催されることもありそれを考えると高くはないかなと思います。旅館は至って普通の昔ながらの旅館です。受付前には三畳くらいの子供用のスペースがあり、おもちゃなどはないですが川が見下ろせるので子どもたちは楽しそうでした。受付の間の時間も持て余すことなく過ごせました。 15時チェックインですが、すでにおふとんが敷いてあり、子供も大人も疲れていたのですぐ横になれたのが大変ありがたかったです。旅館のスタッフの方々もとてもとても親切で、子どもがいる身には大変ありがたかったです。夕食時子どもがグズってしまいデザートまでたどり着けず部屋に戻ろうとしたところスタッフのかたが気遣ってくださりお部屋までデザートを運んでくださいました。忙しい中で、そのお気持ちが大変有難く、感激しました。おむつが取れていない子も大浴場に入れますが、我々は家族風呂という貸切風呂を二泊とも利用しました。3000円/1時間です。予約制ですが当日でも予約でき、子供用の座椅子も貸し出してくださり安心して入浴できました。車椅子の方の入浴も想定されておりました。子供用の浴衣・甚平も借りられます。かわいいです。残念な点もいくつかあり、①幼児用の夕食のおかずがほとんど冷凍食品であったこと②連泊が少ないのか、二泊目の夕食はお品書きがなかったこと③大浴場の洗い場が下水臭かったこと ③はきっと毎日ではないと思いますが、耐えられないほど臭く湯船に浸からず出ました。海が近いので天気などにも影響されるのかもしれません。それ以外は大変満足できました。朝食は地元のものも盛りだくさんで楽しめました。藁に入った納豆もあります。子供も楽しめました。近くのアクティビティもたくさんあり、立地も満足です。ありがとうございました。

お部屋からすごいいい眺めが見れました。お部屋に清掃来てくれたお姉さん達はとても親切でした。他の方の口コミで大丈夫かなと思いましたがぜんぜん大丈夫でした。一ついうなれば観光場所などのパンフレットなどぜんぜんないなと思いました。全体的に良かったです。

今年の夏休みに利用しましたが、和室サイコーでした。きれいで広いお部屋。子供三人いて、予約できることに感謝。朝のビュッフェのアンコウの味噌汁が、ピカイチ。他も普通に美味しいです。太平洋沿いでないぶん、コスパに優れます。
