部屋も快適で、温泉が最高でした。 看板犬や管理された猫部屋もあり、動物好きにはたまりません。チュールを持っていたので、膝にも座ってくれました。 一点注意点としてあるのは、タクシーを呼んでも一時間かかる可能性があるので、前日に予約しておくと安心です。

部屋も綺麗に掃除してあり温泉も最高でした。 民放テレビが映らなくてもネットフレックス等ありWi-Fi環境もよく苦にならない。 唯一の残念の所はチェックイン時の案内がない。サニタリーは？入浴時間は？外出時は？チラシに書いてあるから見て下さいだけ。 非常に勿体ない。受付は宿の顔ですよー

ホテル？とは言えないのでは？

サッシが古く隙間風が入りとても寒い エレベーターがなく部屋から風呂まで4階分の階段を歩かなければならない 部屋にスリッパがなくトイレの床がとても冷たく靴下か、スリッパ持参必須 エアコンが暖房でも冷風が出る 露天風呂は石ががたついて大人は危険 道路側なので外から丸見えです 試みましたが、足場が悪すぎて、危険なので断念しました。 内風呂もまどがなくすだれなので、とても寒くお湯はぬるく、3泊も予約したことを大変後悔しました。 前もって予約していたため2人で1泊12,000円ほどでしたが、直前だと1泊5,000円と値段は変わりますから、行かれる人は金額を事前に確認されたほう緊いですね。ビジネスホテルのほうがよほど良かった。失敗しました。バックパッカーの方の安宿イメージで行かれると満足されると思います！

夏なら最高のビアガーデンの様な外観です。静かでゆっくり出来るお宿でした。がまだオープンしたてとのコトで幾つか改善してほしい点が。温泉は少し温度高めなのですが洗い場が寒すぎます。赤ちゃん連れの方用のベビーベッド置いてあげてほしい、シャワーヘッドは交換を。露天風呂はぬるめです。 フロントの方はとても親切で鹿児島の観光するならといろいろ教えて頂きました。 お部屋はしっかりリノベーションしてあり、キレイで快適。

霧島温泉近くの山あいの温泉宿

霧島の山あい、川沿いの温泉旅館みたいなイメージ。洗面場所がトイレの中で、小さく、使いにくい。部屋の前に古い洗面場所もある。温泉場は古めかしい。露天風呂は道路から丸見え。良いのか、良くないのか。全体的に人の評価が割れそうな宿です。

房間很大，住宿附近也有其他溫泉旅館。 交通比較偏遠，需要自駕上山。 房間清潔度一般，浴室沒有熱洗澡，需要到大澡堂/溫泉使用熱水洗澡。 溫泉更有機會有混浴的可能性。 溫泉旅館在山上，所以溫泉有機會有昆蟲。

とっても素敵な場所でした。 温泉が気持ち良いのはもちろん、とても綺麗でお洒落なお部屋、素敵な外観や美味しい朝食など、良いところはあげればキリがありません。 そんな中でも最も魅力を感じたのは、宿のご主人のあたたかさです。 チェックイン時間が遅れた際にも、快くご対応いただき、お風呂に入る際にタオルを受け取るのを忘れていた時には、声をかけて渡してくれました。 とっても素敵な優しい方で、ぜひまた会いに行きたいと思いました。 本当に素敵な時間をありがとうございました。
