  • The comfort of falling asleep while gazing at the stars. The bed sheets also felt like towels and were very pleasant.Since it’s in the mountains, I wasn’t expecting much from the meals, but everything was delicious.All of the male staff who served us were friendly, and their smiles were wonderful.It’s an Accommodation I’d love to visit again in a different season.

  • I stayed here during the autumn foliage season last year, and this was my second stay, also as a summer getaway. All of the staff were very kind, and it became a wonderful memory. The meals were delicious, and I was completely satisfied. Thank you for showing me around the neighborhood by tuk-tuk in the morning! If I have the chance, I would love to visit again.
