Blue in Green

■Location There is a 7-Eleven just a short drive away. There is also a local supermarket just off the main road. Even during the day, it is difficult to know where to turn, even with a GPS. At night, you would have to drive very slowly to find where to turn. As it is a pension, the signboards are small and I don't think there were any lights on. The back is a grassland and it is open. ■Nearby attractions It is close to Moegi-no-mura and Houtou Kosaku. There is also a large waterfall, and I went there for a jog, but the slope is quite steep, so it is not worth going out of your way to go in the summer. It may be beautiful in the autumn leaves season. ■Rooms The interior seems to have been newly renovated, and it is bright and clean. The loft is also popular with children, but you could fall down the stairs if you are not careful. There are no curtains on the skylight, so you can get up early in the morning. There is no TV. The unit bath is old, but clean. ■Meals Dinner: Pasta and pizza are served first, and the main dish of pork is served last. I would like the order to be changed, or another menu that is not carbohydrates. Coffee was automatically served as an after-meal drink, but I wish they had asked if I wanted tea. I think the child would have preferred the children's lunch plate. Breakfast: I would have liked some more hard bread. It would have been nice to have some sausages as well. The quality and quantity were a little lacking. It would have been nice to have some local yogurt as well. Amenities You can bring your own toothbrush, but it would have been nice if they kept towels on hand. They will provide them if you ask at the front desk. The bath was a family bath, large enough for both children and the bathtub, and although it wasn't new, it was clean. It was nice to have a play corner for children. It would have been nice if there were a few more toys and other things that one or two people could do, rather than books as the main focus. Hospitality I thought the service was light and not too sticky, which was good. It would have been nice to have some local sweets and ingredients. I was hoping for a rich local milk for breakfast, but it was just regular supermarket milk. If I try it there and it's delicious, I might buy some to take home as a souvenir.
