Tsukiyado Luck Hotel

My wife reserved the place as our next overnight trip. As we were approaching and I saw that the area is full of small pensions I started to worry that we'll end up in another house hastily converted into a pension by some people who had no other idea what to do with an empty house... There are quite many such places in Japan and while not terrible they are just like staying at your relatives'. "Luck" surprised me from the start with a very friendly lady who greeted us, showed us to our room and said they would start cooking our dinner right away. The room was very bright, fairly spacious (for Japan) with two beds and a balcony. The balcony with ocean view also had s shower and a bathtub! The dining area is quite small and cosy. The food was super delicious. Fresh sashimi, cooked 金目鯛, the speciality of the area, and sauted beef which was simply melting in my mouth but definitely wasn't even a bit overcooked. The beverage selection was very good too. Beer choices included two local craft beers, Heartland beer (one of the better products of Suntory) and one of the main Japanese brands. The place also features hot springs. One is inside the building. It's not a natural hot spring but still does the job. The one outside is a natural spring and offers a very nice view at the ocean. Recommend going there again early in the morning. Both baths can be taken for personal/family use so for the time you're there it's all yours. Summarizing the place is very good, y the food excellent and the bath as good. Perfect for a quick getaway as it's about 2 hours by car or train from Yokohama.
