Minshuku Akasakata

The landlady was so kind, and the food was delicious. Staying there felt like coming home. I spent two nights and wished I could have stayed longer!

The landlady's warmth and service were wonderful, and I'd stay here again if I'm in the area. I came for work, my first stay in several years, and two adorable cats greeted me right when I arrived. They looked exactly alike. The room had a newer air conditioner and a small TV, while the toilet, bath, and refrigerator were shared.

I was on a bicycle trip from Tokyo to Aomori when I stayed here. The landlady was so thoughtful and kind, which made me very happy. The cat was adorable and even wandered into our room to welcome us. I regret not taking a photo, but the next morning, as I was seeing her off, the cat sat right behind the landlady as if saying goodbye! It made a great memory. I'll definitely visit again.

I came to stay while skiing at Appi Kogen. I'd ridden past this inn on an autumn mountain climb before, but hadn't noticed it until this visit. As the landlady was about to show me to my room, the resident cat popped its head out right away. I was told dinner was a larger-than-usual special, though even the regular serving sounded generous, lol. Along with beer, I got to try homemade plum wine. After dinner I had a lovely time with the landlady, her son, some regulars, and a visitor from Germany. I'd definitely stay here again next time I'm in the area.
