Very friendly host/comfortable stay

Very friendly owner/host. Excellent service. Good Japanese-style bath. Western toilet and WiFi only on first floor. Breakfast room available for guests use (no meals served by inn). Close-by supermarket. Only wish they didn’t smoke because odor permeates property.

Close to beach and sights

Take bus number 30 from Shirahama station and get off at Shirahama bus stop. It is a white building about 100m from bus stop. Nice old house with beautiful koi pond and garden in the middle of house! Japanese style room for 2 persons is spacious and clean. Futon is clean and comfortable. Onsen bath area and toilets are clean too. Aircon works well and there is NO extra charge. There is onsen tax of ¥150/pax (same tax throughout Japan) for accommodation with onsen facilities. Owner is very helpful, speaks some English. Easily accessible nice beach ~150m away. You can walk to Sakinoyu (seaside onsen) in 10 -15 mins. This guest house is recommended if you don't need hotel standard stay.

Friendly but aging traditional Japanese Minshuku

We think some past reviews of this place are a little unfair. Yes the building is old and tired (think 70`s era) and could do with a refresh, but the facilities and service were as one would expect from a low/mid-range traditional Japanese minishuku accommodation. The elderly lady (in her 80`s!) and her son who run the place were lovely and went out of their way to help their guests. We were even offered a lift to the station, which was greatly appreciated. The room was spacious and clean, the bath facilities were ok but definitely in need of renewal. The location is great, just set back from the main beach and near a number of restaurants and a supermarket. The provisions in the communal kitchen could be improved (strange layout, extra utensils and crockery needed) but we made do. There is a pretty courtyard garden with carp pond in the center of the building which makes for a nice setting. Overall we would recommend this place for a budget night or two as long as your expectations aren`t set too high; Shirahama as a whole is a tired beach resort town in need of some modernisation, so this place fits right in!

최고의 민숙입니다.

또 가고싶은 숙소입니다. 호스트는 직접 시설 안내를 해주시고 온천수가 나오는 개인 욕탕과 중앙정원 등, 민숙임에도 불구하고 깨끗한 시설과 편안한 침구류, 히터 등의 준비는 5성 호텔 부럽지 않은 수준입니다. 현금 결제이며 소정의 입욕세가 추가되지만 충분히 지불할 값어치가 있습니다.

白浜エネルギーランド、店やコンビニ、スパー、酒屋、観光施設がすぐ近くにある素晴らしい立地条件なのに、格安の宿泊料金。 24時間入浴できる温泉は泉質もすごく良く、わざわざ他所に入りに行かなくても、宿の温泉で十二分に堪能できます。宿のご主人も色々と融通をきかせてくれるので快適に過ごせました。
