Homestays in Shimane Prefecture, Japan

To be honest, the location of the apartment is not bad, and it is very convenient and easy to locate. The only thing to criticize, if you are asking me, is that it is so close to the traffic which cause a bit of noise. It is clean and tidy and have most of the daily necessities. We loved the cooking utensils especially the heating plate. There are lots of restaurants and very need to Lawson. A great place to stay! 😄😃👍👍👍

The room is lovely, a cozy traditional tatami style. It's managed by locals, so that's really nice. I kinda regret not getting a place closer to the center. It's 30 minutes walk from the train station (with some sights along the way). There is a local bus (Google maps seems to be on point with it) but it doesn't drive all that often. There is however a great Onsen 15 minutes walk from the hotel. I do reccomend that. :)

The room used the loft type. It was very beautiful and enough for us to use just to sleep. There is a unit bus, but I also got a ticket for a nearby hot spring. Because it was heavy snow, I was able to borrow brush, hot water and color 々 on my way home. The staff is kind and I would like to use it again.

It takes about 40 minutes by car from the city, and half of it has to run on the mountain road along the sea, but there are about 5 minutes by car from Nikko Lighthouse, Nikko Shrine, Izumo Matsushima, etc., and I went sightseeing after staying. The inn was cleanly renovated, the bath, toilet and washroom were shared but no problem. The room had a TV, refrigerator, yukata, towels, toothbrush, Japanese tea and tea tea bags. １ There was a vending machine in the lobby on the floor, such as pots, microwave ovens, beverages, cup noodles, frozen foods, etc.

I was on a business trip just in time for a day when Shimane had all the gods coming, and I could only choose this one when the surrounding hotels were all booked out. There is no breakfast, and there is a 711 for ten minutes by car, which can be bought the night before. No extra bed, only upper and lower bunks, but clean and hygienic. There is a kitchen in the living room, which is free to use, so it is more suitable for small-scale group building. The outside scenery is good and the feeling is endless. Because it is a suburban area, it is relatively biased, so parking is fine.

Whether it is the service or the environment, it is far beyond my expectations. The location is also very good. The station is just a little way out, and you can rent bicycles next to it. The boss and his wife of the bicycle line are also very good, allowing me to ride to the supermarket to buy things after timeout. The supermarket cashier was also super enthusiastic. When I went there at night, I gave me the jacket I left there at noon and gave me 🤭 with my children to experience the Japanese family lifestyle. The breakfast and dinner made by the proprietress were delicious and exquisite. The sashimi for dinner was very fresh, the mini sushi pot was great, and the breakfast actually ate the luxury goods in the fruit (in Japan), watermelon and net melon. It is recommended that you go on weekends, you can see the steam train, and there may be activities in the shrine.

We stayed for Matsue sightseeing. It was convenient at the location of Matsue Jo castle. The bus from Matsue Station stopped nearby, and I arrived in a blink of an eye while watching the castle town about 25 minutes walk from Matsue Station. The explanation at check-in was polite and the system was always supported. The towel was one face towel and one bath towel. I thought it would be crowded because the bath was １, but I could use it smoothly.

It was still inconvenient that there was no TV around the water, but it was fashionable and clean, so I could stand it if I wanted to eat delicious food for a little cheaper stay. I would like to use it again.

It was very nice that the landlady was kind. The hot springs are also good. The Italian for dinner is delicious, but I thought that the amount was small for those who often eat it.

I made a reservation for worshiping Izumo Taisha Shrine. The log house was beautiful and impressed from the moment I entered the entrance. There was a bedroom on the first and second floors, and I was very satisfied with the bedroom on the first floor because I had elderly parents who were hard to use the stairs. The breakfast was very delicious. It was close to Izumo Taisha shrine and was able to visit early. I would like to use it again if I have the opportunity.
