Uminohana in Atami

Ah, how nostalgic. I stayed there a few years ago during the Atami fireworks festival. It was such a memorable inn that I'm writing a review years later. Fortunately, we weren't bothered by bugs or mold, but the obvious cheapness of the place was striking. The furnishings, hallway design, room wallpaper, and every other visible detail were shoddy, reminiscent of a cheap school trip hostel, and it ruined the travel experience. Simply slapping black and gold wallpaper on a room doesn't make it look luxurious. The glue was peeling. I also wondered about the handmade wooden letters that spelled "toilet" in katakana on the hallway bathroom. It was cute, but it reminded me of a training camp. While the sloppy facilities were the biggest reason I shouldn't stay there, the staff's service was also lackluster. I still remember the grumpy response I received when I called about three hours in advance to let them know I'd be a little late for check-in.

This was my first time to stay at a hotel with so many cockroaches. There were four of them. They appeared in the bath attached to the room and in the room. I think one cockroach is fine because it's in the middle of nature, but four cockroaches is definitely a hygiene issue for the entire hotel. I wonder if they don't do anything to control pests. The room was somehow dusty, and the futon was a mattress, not a futon. I can't believe we paid 130,000 yen for three people for this. The food was also terrible. Even if it was a 9,000 yen per person hotel, the taste and presentation were a bit disappointing. I've stayed at several hotels in the same price range, but the difference was more than a world apart. You can't see the view from the smaller private open-air bath. The changing room was also somehow dusty. Even if the building itself is old, it wouldn't be unpleasant if it was a thoroughly cleaned hotel, but it was obviously not clean enough. The staff seemed to be trying to provide a pleasant customer service. I think it would be better for them to work at another hotel. I think some people might book this hotel thinking that it's a high-class inn because the price is comparable to that of a luxury inn, but I don't want them to have the same experience, so I wrote this. If they charge high prices and make customers have a bad experience, I think they will eventually not be able to survive, even if they are located in Atami.

I'm going to say something harsh, but it's really the worst inn! I stayed in a separate room with a plan that included breakfast and dinner. At the first check-in, I was guided to another room, but the flowers in the vase on the table were left withered. The moment I saw this, I felt like everything I had hoped for was lost. My prediction was right, but the rice was so unbelievably bad that I laughed! It's like 50% off supermarket side dishes arranged on a neat plate... Fried food is dry and miso soup doesn't taste like miso. I feel like the bad appetizers of the izakaya are coming out one after another. When the boiled abalone comes out, cut it up with a knife on your plate. Let's feed the zoo! Isn't it good manners to at least serve it warm? Only the scenery and the bath can be said to be 100 steps. This is the first time I've had such a low quality meal at an inn. I wish I could be. If you are going to use it, it may be better to stay overnight without rice.

Looking at the pictures, I was too disappointed because I had high expectations.
Certainly the view was good, but the surrounding scenery was not like a luxury inn, with private houses lined up under my eyes.
It feels like the pension has improved a little.
The road to the inn was a steep slope that only one car could pass through, so I thought I didn't have to drive my own car.

The stairs to the room were quite steep, and it was difficult to get back from the bath to the room.

At an inn full of tsukkomi, I met my friends and made them laugh.

Since I had reserved a villa, the reception was different from the ones who reserved the main building, but the room I passed through was not a room that I thought I paid 30,000 yen, but somewhere in the dining room. A cheap room like that.
And the lamp was flickering.

The terrace of the room? There are desks and chairs, but it's a narrow place, and even if you open the window and go out, it feels like you're sitting through the gap between the bed and the window.

The bed was comfortable.
The image of a hotel bed was fluffy, so I was very disappointed.

When I tried to make coffee and drink in the room, I took sugar and found a used one with no contents.
Isn't it checked at the time of cleaning? I was surprised again and laughed with my friends.

The windowpanes of the bath are not well cleaned and are full of scale.

Is iced coffee after breakfast quite light in color and tea? I heard it again.
I was told that it was a little bad, but I was surprised to serve the iced coffee to the customers as it was.

The only good thing is the private bath in the villa.
The atmosphere was good.

I regret that I made a reservation without seeing Google reviews.
I thought that Ikyu had a good word-of-mouth score and that it was a luxury inn in terms of money.

We recommend that you do not expect too much.
