Experience of the stay
Staying in a dormitory. Detailed report. In Hayama, at a hotel I had admired. I was curious about a low-cost dormitory I could stay in. I uploaded a lot of pictures, so it's a must-see.
There is one bath towel and one face towel. A cute light blue bag is included. Loungewear can be rented for 500 yen. There are hairbrushes and toothpaste available.
At the entrance of the dormitory, there are a sink, a microwave, and a pot of warm water.
You can also have meals at the restaurant, but you can also have meals in the lounge next to it.
There are outlets in various places, so charging is possible.
We purchased dinner and enjoyed it in the tent while drinking alcohol slowly.
It was a spacious space, and even with people around, I didn't mind other people's voices, creating a truly relaxing atmosphere.
The dormitory is divided into mixed-gender areas and female-only areas by curtains. If you wish for the female-only area at the time of reservation, it seems you can inform the hotel, and if there is availability, they can accommodate that.
When you think of dormitories, you may have worries about height or cramped rooms, but the room was relatively spacious, allowing women to lie down comfortably. I only know about the lower bunk I stayed in, but it was pretty high, making it easy to change clothes. A bonus point was that the pillows were larger than average, which was nice.
There is a hairdryer at the sixth-floor hot spring and the dormitory toilet. The sixth floor has a water dispenser, and you can drink water. There are small paper cups on the sixth floor, but the dormitory toilet has a sink but lacks paper cups, so I felt a bit inconvenient when brushing my teeth. I think it would be convenient if paper cups same as on the sixth floor were provided in the dormitory toilet for brushing teeth.
The dormitory room was adjacent to my friend’s room, making it also recommended for friends to stay in the dormitory together.
Overall impressions were that the ceiling was high, and in such a spacious environment, I could relax with the sea stretching out in front of me, which was very satisfying.
The music playing in the lounge is also relaxing, making it a wonderful space to refresh oneself. I could stay for several days in the dormitory comfortably.
There is a small path directly in front of the hotel that connects to the sea, allowing you to reach the beach easily.
The sixth-floor hot spring was breathtaking, with a view that extended before me. There is one bath each for men and women in the hot spring. Shampoo, conditioner, and body soap are provided. In the changing room, there are moisturizing lotion and milky lotion available.
When you take the bus from the station, the nearest bus stop is right in front of the hotel, making it convenient for return trips as well. There don’t seem to be any shops nearby, but there is one convenience store between the bus stop and the hotel.
I liked it so much that I would like to stay for two or three days if I could.
I hope this information helps those who are anxious about staying in dormitories.
Since there was no meal included, I had lunch at Umi no Hotel during my women's trip to Hayama.
I enjoyed a luxurious feeling on the cruise as well. Umi no Hotel is one bus stop away from Hayama Marina, where you can board the Hayama cruise.
Board the cruise at Hayama Marina and stay at Umi no Hotel. A luxurious full course is recommended.
My impression this time is that I spent a luxurious and relaxed time, which truly made for a wonderful holiday.
Experiences during the trip
This time I went on a women's trip to Hayama. We took a cruise from Hayama Marina. It was a real cruise that lasted 45 minutes to the back of Enoshima. I enjoyed a luxurious feeling, and it was a cost-effective trip.
There was a crowd in front of Zushi Station in the morning, and when I checked it out, fresh fish was on display and sold at very reasonable prices. I took some pictures, but when we talked about buying on the way back, we found out it was closed on Sundays, which was disappointing.
This time we traveled by train and then used buses, but the bus frequency was about three times an hour, which made bus travel quite time-consuming.
We took a bus to Zushi Marina. The couch outside the café in front of AO was also comfortable and recommended.
