古い施設ですが、売りの露天風呂つき客室や足湯付き客室があり、そちらを利用しました。素泊まりなのでわからないのですが、食事付きプランとかあるのでしょうか？？回りに飲食店はあまりないですが、近くにイオン系列のスーパーがあるので、食料はなんとかなります。大浴場も古めかしいです。

3泊　ヒノキの露天風呂付きのお部屋に滞在させていただきました。 建物の古さ　カビ臭さは歴史のある旅館なので仕方ないと思います。 過剰なサービスは無く　自由に過ごせました。 お部屋の露天風呂　大浴場　海まで近距離　お食事する場所も豊富てす。 源泉のお風呂と綺麗な海が目的の旅行でしたので満足でした。

白良浜が近いからという理由だけで宿泊した 昔に建てたままなのか至る所が古く隣りの部屋の扉を閉める音、歩く音、話し声が丸聞こえ お風呂が今まで泊まった中で1番ゆっくりしたいと思えないお風呂でした 中国人が大勢で大声で話していて湯船を占領 脱衣所も今時のロッカーではなくカゴなので盗難を恐れてすぐお風呂を出た あと汚い よかった点は白良浜が近いという点ぐらい あとは並かそれ以下

古い宿ですが、掃除も行き渡っています。所々ボロい所もありますがキッチンも清潔で食材さえ持ち込めば、なんだって作れます。皿やコップ、キッチン用品も多様。レンジ、オーブン、トースターも完備。しらがはまは目の前で雰囲気最高。スタッフの愛想も良かった。食事なし、安く白浜を楽しむ人には向いていると思う。お風呂の湯も最高でしたよ。

Just wanted to echo another a review below that also pointed out some of the red flags that we saw. When we first booked the hotel from the pictures we thought we were getting a modern clean and great stay for the price. But after seeing the lobby, the hallways, and the room itself we were really disturbed by the state everything was left in. there were stains everywhere on the walls, doors, hallway, carpets, and bedsheets. The state of so many things looked extremely rundown that we didn’t even want to see another room in the hotel, but opted to stay a night in Wakayama instead.
