The Oku-Yahagi Recreation Center is not a for-profit lodging company, so if you go there expecting to be treated like a Japanese inn or hotel, you may be disappointed. I did not have such expectations, and I thought the facility would be like this based on the information I received at the time of application, so I guess it was as I had expected when I actually stayed there. I think they took care of me by providing a warm dinner and taking the time to make a reservation for the bath. The dinner was freshly prepared and warm, but I felt that there was a bias toward meat-based dishes. I think it was partly due to the budget, but I would have liked a little more vegetables. I also wanted a heater because it was the middle of November. I also wanted blankets for my bedding. I had no choice but to leave the heater on.
