Kujukogen Ginga No Yado Kinoko IIseigo

This was a great stay with a local family that runs an inn in the hills outside Taketa. The innkeeper is a friendly older gentleman who can speak some English, but mainly communicates using his online translation app. He is very interested in getting to know the people who stay at his place and initiates conversation to learn more about you. In this way, he is culturally different than many other Japanese people, who are more reserved. Our main purpose for coming to the area was to see Drum Tao, and their location is a 30-minute walk from the inn. We didn't have a car during our trip and took a taxi from Bungo-Taketa, but the innkeeper was willing to drive us to Tao and also to a restaurant a short ways down the road. The innkeeper has also built an observatory on the property and if it is a clear night, he'll invite guests to come and look through his very impressive telescope. On the night we were there, we were able to see the moon, Mars, Jupier, several stars, and the Orion Nebula through the telescope. Not something you get at a standard hotel.

老闆夫婦十分好人和好客，登記入住時還介紹了附近餐廳 。如果沒有訂晚餐也不用煩惱去那吃晚飯 。晚上還有觀星活動 。觀星用的設備是一個專業的望遠鏡 。是一個很難忘的活動，這也是為何位置會有一點偏僻 。遺憾的是當晚雲很大 。無法觀星 。酒店還有溫泉設施 。是分時段包場的。早餐也很豐富 。酒店內部設施是歐式風格 。給人感覺得舒服 。十分推廣！

旅館主人是一位很有禮貌及熱情的伯伯，熱心詳細的講解旅館安排及周圍飯店資料，更加插夜間觀星環節，體驗黑夜星空的浪漫。 旅館環境很優美，被樹木包圍，內有很大片美麗的草地。旅館的房屋也很有歐陸風格，十分整潔！ 另外有溫泉提供，，加上各方面景觀，十分寫意的體驗！

接待老爺爺太熱情了，還介紹了附近的景點以及吃飯的地方，還有詳細的自己畫的手工簡易地圖，非常貼心非常開心的住宿
