"A very good hotel not too far from the ferry, terminal.
From the bathroom you can tell that the building is a bit older, but they have maintained and renovated it really well. Loved the spacious room, as I was travelling with two suitcases.
I recommended booking the hotel with breakfast, as it has a good variety of dishes and so far has been my favourite one during my travels.
Not all the staff speak English, but they make a real effort to assist you.
One of the things that I was positively surprised about, is the amount of items you can borrow and that they make it visible for their guests. So far this is the only hotel I have seen this at. It's good to know, that I'm able to borrow plates and cutlery or even an umbrella.
In terms of sustainability I like that guests staying longer than 2 nights can get towels from a cabinet on the ground floor and decide, if they really need a replacement after just one use. There are even special beach towels that guests can use for the day.
If I get another chance to visit Ishigaki I will definitely book here again."
