“Accommodation only for overnight stay”
It is an affiliate of Kita Kobushi, a well-known ryokan in Shiretoko. Since I was alone, I did not feel like staying at an expensive onsen ryokan, so I decided to stay at this inn for a simple overnight stay. Located on top of a mountain, there are no restaurants or grocery stores around, so you have to eat along the national highway or buy a boxed lunch at a convenience store on the way up. Moreover, whether it was the SDGS or the Shari-cho policy, we were told to wash the plastic containers of our lunch boxes and throw them away. It was a hassle, so I took them home. As you can imagine, I don't feel like washing lunchbox containers even at home. The rooms are Japanese/Western style and spacious, and the coin-operated laundry is convenient, but in general I didn't feel relaxed, and the price is too high for a simple overnight stay.
