Stay surrounded by the majestic great outdoors of Aso! BBQ without needing to bring anything!
"Very beautiful place, and the room was truly excellent: spacious, bright, warm, with impeccable bedding and cleanliness.
The bathroom is large and includes a bathtub, and the room is very well equipped (electric kettle, small kitchen, large refrigerator).
It was also possible to arrange horseback riding and get onsen tickets, which is a real plus.
However, for backpackers, this accommodation is not ideal at all. It is very far from everything:
– FamilyMart: about a 27-minute walk
– Bus stop: about a 21-minute walk
– Mount Aso Museum: around 1h15 total (including 20 minutes on foot)
– Aso Station: about a 1h15 walk
A small anecdote: we first climbed up to the accommodation carrying our 10 kg backpacks, only to see on the door that check-in is actually done at the bottom. It would be helpful to indicate this more clearly downstairs, or at least make it easier to notice for foreign travelers, as we missed the information 😅
Finally, for those planning to walk to the Aso Museum or hiking areas, the path indicated at the end of the residential area near the accommodation does not exist."
The sauna is very comfortable, there are small crabs next to the cold spring pool, the air is clean, the water quality is sweet, the room is well maintained, we use washing machines and dryers, convenient and comfortable.
This inn was amazing! We even added an extra night. Our room had a view of Mount Aso, and dinner was a BBQ with Japanese side dishes. The innkeepers, a loving couple, were incredibly attentive and caring, especially considering we had a child. The four private hot springs, each with its own unique style, were fantastic. This small inn had everything you could need, with impeccable attention to detail and impeccable cleanliness. Even the slippers we wore each day were labeled with the guests' room names. Staying at the foot of Mount Aso allowed us to explore at a leisurely pace. With the extra day, we also visited Takachiho, ate Miyazaki beef, and enjoyed a great inn!
The best service for riders! The room was spacious, and I was able to park my bike in the inn's garage. There was a coin laundry. There was a well-stocked drugstore right in front, and even food was available, so it seemed like it would be fine even if I got home late. If you're staying in Aso City, this is the place to go.
