Onsen Guest House Tsutaya Reviews

I thought hotels and inns in Hakone were expensive, but I was able to find a reasonably priced inn and guesthouse. Even if you use public transportation, it is convenient because it is close to the bus stop. Convenience stores are also within walking distance. I wasn't familiar with the area, so I later found out that there are frequent buses along National Route 1, which was great for me since I don't have a car. Kagodoko is a so-called capsule hotel style, and the entrance is accessed with a security key. I was tired so I fell asleep, but the sound of this door opening and closing can be quite loud, so if you're interested, you might be concerned. There is 1 USB, 2 sockets, and a small security box in the room. People with large luggage such as suitcases seemed to leave it in the aisle. Other than sleeping in my own room, the basket floor was enough for me to take a bath and relax in the shared lounge and kitchen. Perhaps because we entered the hot springs early (6:00-7:00, 18:00-19:00), the hot springs were almost reserved for private use.The outdoor baths seemed to be more popular with foreigners, but the indoor baths were also nice and relaxing. It was warm in the morning and at night. The kitchen was self-service, and the staff cleaned and tidyed up frequently, making it a pleasant experience to use. I made coffee in the mill every day and had a relaxing time. The receptionist was kind and helpful. The interior design is Japanese-style, which would appeal to foreign tourists, and the people staying there were of various nationalities, making it feel like I was in a foreign country, which was refreshing. If you're used to staying in a hostel, it's natural to bring most things with you, but here they provided towels, toiletries, and drinks, so all you need is a toothbrush and a loungewear. That's enough. it was very helpful.
