About a 10-minute walk from Iida Station, this retro Showa-era Accommodation is close to the famous Apple Tree-Lined Street.
While the age of the Facility is noticeable, there is an elevator and everything is kept clean, so I had no particular inconveniences during my stay. There is a slightly larger family bath; women can use it with peace of mind by hanging the “in use” card on the door and locking it from inside. It was much more comfortable than the small unit bath in the Room. In the dining area, instant coffee, barley tea, and cold water are available freely, and there is also a microwave, so I brought my own breakfast and enjoyed eating there at a relaxed pace. The staff kindly told me that I could leave my trash on the table as it was, and I often saw them diligently cleaning or handling linens in the hallway—overall their pleasant service made for a comfortable stay. The down comforter was light and cozy, and I slept very well. Although it’s in town, it felt surprisingly quiet, and there are no convenience stores nearby, so it’s best to buy what you need in advance.
I was able to stay in a twin Room for just over 10,000 yen, which helped keep travel costs down. I’d be happy to stay again if I have another chance.
