I stayed at this small hotel for a night on a recent weekend trip out to Shimoda to visit some beaches. Getting there with luggage was quite easy since they have a shuttle bus service from the closest train station, Izu-Inatori. They recommend you call them in advance of your arrival, but I was quite lucky in that there was an employee holding a banner with the hotel name on it. When I asked him about the shuttle bus he guided us to it and in a few minutes we were at the hotel.
Check-in was a breeze. As soon as we came through the front door we switched over to some hotel-provided sandals and were lead to some couches in the lobby to relax. We were provided juice and some light jelly snacks. An employee came over and began taking my information to confirm the booking (including making copies of my passport and my friend's passport) as well as providing me information on the breakfast that was included in my room, where the afternoon tea/pancake service was held and which hot springs and pools were available. We ended up using one of the private baths in the hotel since we are both tattooed (it can be difficult traveling in Japan with tattoos) so i can't comment on the public pool that is available in the sister hotel across the street.
The afternoon pancake service was nice and breakfast the following morning was very good. Even though Japanese style breakfast is far from my favorite I still enjoyed the steamed vegetables and fish quite a bit.
