Amazing

Great option for visiting the Shirahige Shrine. The host offered a ride in the early morning after knowing we were planning to go, which was extremely kind of him.
Room was very spacious and clean, with a nice view. Very close to the station and easy to find.
The only thing I would note is that there was only one bath. We arrived around 830pm and planned to take the bath shortly, but by the time we settled and got downstairs (around 9pm), someone else was using it so we couldn't get in until after 930. It was a shame that we couldn't enjoy the hot bath as much as we wanted as we tried to hurry out for the next group since they were waiting after us but I'm not sure if they were able to use it as the bath closes at 10pm.

If you want to watch the sunrise at Shirahira Shrine, there aren't many options in Takashima. This hotel is a very old-fashioned Japanese-style hotel, very ordinary, and it even has a shared bathroom, which is really inconvenient. If you have the means, it's better to choose another hotel.

The location is conveniently close to the JR station, and there are several restaurants nearby, making it a good value option.

Check-in was at 11:00, but due to a delay in airport immigration, I arrived around 11:30. I was grateful that the host allowed me to check in, and I was able to stay there. The tatami room was clean and neatly organized, so the atmosphere was very nice.

We received a warm welcome. The room was very nice and spacious. It was a shame that the shower was only available from 5 pm to 10 pm, and not on the morning of our departure. However, a sink in the room allowed us to brush our teeth on the morning of our departure.

The room is very large; it would be spacious enough for three or four people to stay in.

Ebisu-sou 恵美寿荘 offers a delightful retreat in the heart of Takashima, Japan. The serene location earns it 4 stars, providing a peaceful escape. Impeccable cleanliness and a friendly staff, rated at 5 and 4.5 stars respectively, ensure a comfortable stay. The value for money is commendable at 4 stars, and the facilities, along with a tasty breakfast, add to the positive experience, both rated at 4 stars. A unique highlight is the charming old-fashioned tatami bedroom, adding cultural richness to the stay. Overall, Ebisu-sou strikes a balance between tradition and comfort, making it a delightful choice for those seeking a serene and culturally immersive getaway.

The five-person room has no lock from the outside and there are cockroaches in the room, which is difficult to accept.

I want to see the sunrise at Shirasu Shrine. You can stay there. The quality is definitely not as good as in big cities.

It's about a 3 minute walk from the station. There is a large information board in front of the intersection, and when you look in the direction of the arrow, you can already see it. The exterior looks like a Showa era inn. The room had been remodeled and was bright, clean, and spacious. I was grateful that the lobby had self-service coffee (make your own instant), cold water, and candy. I had to go to the bathroom at a time when each room was free, but I was greeted frequently, so I didn't have to wait. The breakfast and dinner meals are abundant and I think the cost performance is very good. There are no toilets in the room, just one for men and one for men and women across the hallway, so I had to be careful in the morning. One refrigerator is located in the hallway. You can receive a free shuttle to Shirahige Shrine in time for sunrise. That was the deciding factor in choosing this place.
