Small group of 6 of us taking the car to Shodoshima. Decide to stay overnight at Green Plaza cuz it has an outdoor onsen. Lovely hotel near the ferry terminal with transportation, quite location and the outdoor onsen overlooks the sea facing west. Gorgeous view and I loved it. Rooms are small but cosy & clean. The restaurant and the reception area have the better view over the sea.

Taking safety measures
Rather worn down hotel but you get what you paid for the price. Cleanliness is definitely below average.
So I made this booking like two months earlier, and I emailed the hotel and was told they would pick me up at the pier.
Three days before arrival, I emailed them again with the time of arrival coz I then knew which ferry I would be taking. No response. Got to Tonosho pier, no sign of them. Thank God for Skype, I called them and a staff answered. She put me on hold for a while then understood the keywords... "Tonosho", "now". And we saw their van pulling up after 10 minutes.
We really enjoyed this hotel! The terrace on the coast is lovely and you can watch such beautiful sunsets from it every night. The manager, Nobu-san, was so friendly and went out of his way to be helpful to us throughout our stay. The onsen are great too.
