Summary: ​I rarely write reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience about this stay. The property is located in an incredibly remote area with absolutely no stores or restaurants nearby. Be aware that the on-site pizza restaurant is closed several days a week, and when it is, you cannot even use the terrace. There are no walking trails around the area, and the owner offered zero recommendations for things to do or places to eat. ​Furthermore, the place looks nothing like the photos. The facilities are old and dated, and the kitchen wasn't even stocked with basic essentials like plates. Upon arrival, the owner gave us a very cold reception and was quite rude. We definitely got the impression that he prefers local guests over international tourists. ​To top it all off, the price is outrageously high for what you get. Just to give you an idea, we paid significantly more for this disappointing stay than we did for our nights in major cities like Osaka and Kyoto. I strongly advise against booking this place, especially if you are a foreigner.
