I enjoyed my stay. Having access to a kitchen was great, the staff were friendly (even offered me some soba noodles one morning) and the sea view from my window was great. Room was clean, bed was comfortable, as was the chair I was sitting in to work for a bit. There are stairs in this property (no lift) so it may not work for everyone.

車で10分走れば温泉や飲食店にアクセスできますが、 バス等はほぼ無い為何かしらの移動手段が必須です。 早朝の海の景色は絶景で宿泊費もリーズナブルな為 景色を楽しみながら宿泊したい人にはおすすめです。

Un hotel basic dove non manca nulla, c’è tutto! La camera con vista sul mare era spaziosa. Ci sono spazi comuni dove mangiare e caffè sempre disponibile. Nei dintorni ci sono buonissimi ristoranti e 2 kombini. Molto consigliato!!! Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo!

共同のキッチン、コインランドリー、各階に電子レンジがある(今回は４泊のため使用せず)ので、長期滞在に向いていると思う。無料の駐車場がありありがたい。畳にツインベッドの部屋だったので、ゴロゴロ出来て良かった。入館時に靴を脱ぐ必要がある。エレベーターが無いので、スーツケースを軽くしていないと少し辛いかも。

C'est vraiment un hôtel minimaliste : la chambre est minuscule, la salle de bains microscopique, l'équipement réduit à la plus simple expression. Vraiment cher pour ce que c'est.

You need a car when you stay at this property. The wife and husband owners are so nice and helpful to show the kitchen. There is a professional kitchen all equipped that guests can use until 10pm. The view from my room was seaside and wonderful

An oasis

A truly awesome oasis on the edge of town, with superb views over the bay, and lovely owners who go out of their way to help you. The other guests were also friendly, and the set-up of the open kitchen where you can prepare your own meals is a bonus. Actually the best bonus was the free coffee available 24/7. That was a blessing to the two drowned rats who made it to the hotel in a torrential downpour… You would be hard-pressed to find better accommodation on the peninsula, and far less likely to meet nicer people. 5 big stars.

The owner lady and her are delightful. The room is facing the sea which is creating dramatic atmosphere. Just the stairs are a bit hard to carry luggage’s, but the owner’s son gave us big help to carry the cases for us. Overall fantastic experience to stay in Shari.

Very nice

房間乾淨、海景很漂亮、有免費熱咖啡可以喝。 地點離商店有點遠，不過來這裡的住客都是開車，所以不成問題。 比較不解的是發生三次詭異的現象，吃完晚餐回到房間後，蓮蓬頭自己打開噴水，而且還是開到最大的那種，因為不是小小的水流，所以也不是沒關好的緣故，因為每次離開房間回來後就又開始噴水，最後決定邊錄影邊鎖門，回來再開錄影，但這樣做卻又一切正常了，後來開車也累了，所以也沒有再在意了。 （老闆的想法覺得是門關太大了或根本沒關好🤔）
