Condominium Hotel with Semi-Open-Air Baths in All Rooms - Garland Court Usami

This time, I stayed in a corner Room (Type C) on the top floor (4th floor).Because it was a semi-open-air bath with 24-hour circulation, I could use it anytime without the hassle of filling the tub, which was great.I chose a Plan without meals, so I stocked up at a local supermarket before arriving, but the selection of frozen foods and boxed meals there was limited and overpriced—I wish I had shopped at Don Quijote across from Marine Town instead.The check-in process at the Accommodation is a bit unfriendly and may be confusing for first-time guests.You open the sliding window by the stairs on the 1st floor and operate via a touch-panel monitor, but you need to enter your Reservation Number or QR code.You also need to enter information for accompanying guests along with the Reserver’s details, so it would be better if this were explained in advance in the Reservation instructions.It also would have helped to know beforehand that you must pay a Hot Spring Tax of 300 yen per person at check-in.*Depending on the booking site, this information may have been provided.The Room was very clean, and unlike typical hotels, there are plenty of power outlets—so charging devices shouldn’t be an issue.There are also outlets by the bedside (upper area) along with lighting, which is convenient if you charge your phone while sleeping.Free Wi-Fi was available; with three other guest groups (judging by the number of cars in the parking lot), speeds were reasonably good.Getting to the Accommodation may take some effort due to rough road conditions.If you take the road marked “No entry except Minori Village personnel,” it works as a shortcut and you can reach it without problems; however, if you simply follow GPS directions, you may end up on narrow roads and taking a longer route—so checking in advance is recommended.If you’re lucky with other guests, it’s quiet and ideal for relaxing indoors at your own pace. If that concept suits you, I think it’s an excellent Accommodation.

This was my first time staying here.Before my trip, I was surprised to see news about a water outage in Ito City, so I called to confirm. You responded very kindly, which put me at ease and allowed me to travel with confidence.After arriving, I was impressed by the spacious Room and the large bathtub.I’m 180 cm tall, and it was my first time ever being able to fully stretch out in an in-room bath.When I opened the window, the fresh air felt wonderful and cooled my face—and being able to enjoy such a blissful bath anytime during my stay made me truly happy.It was really great.After bathing, I cooled down on the chair in the bathroom and then enjoyed a dreamy, relaxing time in the reclining chair in the living room.I will definitely stay again someday.
