About reservation

Q
Do I need an appointment?
A

Although it is not a complete reservation system, we will give priority to reservations, so if you fill up with reservations you will not be able to stay.
It is possible to stay on the day if there is space.
However, you may not be able to prepare meals even if you can prepare a room with a plan that includes ingredients.

Q

A

For online reservations, please make a reservation after completing membership registration.

Q

A

With online reservations, you can register for reservations tomorrow or the same day if there is space available.
However, you cannot register a plan that includes ingredients that need to be reserved at least 4 days in advance.

Q
I want to cancel my reservation for tomorrow and today...

Q
Can I make a reservation for more than the capacity?
A

The capacity is determined by the Inn Business Law and other regulations, so we cannot accept overtime.
Please consider booking a large room or split into two rooms.

Q
I'd like to specify the location of the parcel. (I'd like to know the location of the parcel in advance.) )
A

We will decide your location the day before.
This is because all reservations are made, and among them, wheelchairs and elderly people are close to the front desk, people who come in two families are next to each other or close, and as young as possible and families with children are tried to leave.

Therefore, please note that even if you fill in the designation of the place in the communication column, etc., we will not be able to answer as it is.
On the other hand, if you have a handicap or an elderly person who wishes to be a place, please fill in that in the communication column. We will consider it to the extent possible.

Q
What happens in case of typhoon?
A

Since the impact will differ depending on the course and power, we will provide information on facility operation on the website and PICA help desk while judging the situation.

Q
Is it possible to change the schedule?
A

Yes. It is possible.
However, if the schedule is changed, the number of changes will be only once.
In addition, if the schedule is changed for the convenience of the customer within the cancellation charge generation period and the changed schedule is canceled, the cancellation charge, whichever is higher, the first cancellation charge or the changed cancellation charge, will be applied. Please note that.

Q
What should I do if I want to change the number of nights, the number of people, or make reservations for additional options?
