This time, we stayed at "E-NEXCO LODGE Sano SA (Family Lodge Hatagoya Sano SA)"near Ashikaga Flower Park. NEXCO stands for Expressway Corporation.
Highway hotels are usually used from SA or PA on one side, either inbound or outbound line. Dannoura PA and Sano SA are exceptions and can be accessed from both the inbound and outbound line. It would be convenient if it can be accessed from both sides, but that would be complicated.

Sano SA has a smart IC, and you can use it for a one-way trip up or down, but you can't use it for a round trip.

There is also a dog run next to "E-NEXCO LODGE Sano SA".
Family Lodge Hatagoya is a chain lodging facility, and the two rooms at the end are open for dogs, so we sometimes use them.
The room at this highway hotel is made in the same way as any other ordinary family lodge Hatagoya.

There is a SA shop and a dog run next to the highway hotel, so it is convenient, but the rooms and facilities don’t look much different from other Hatagoya locations.


①This is a photo of "E-NEXCO LODGE Sano SA". You can see the sign for the dog run.


② I have a commemorative photo taken in front of the hotel. You can see the letters "E-NEXCO LODGE" and "Hatagoya".


③ On the other side of Hatagoya, you can see the SA shop.


④ I’m taking a walk in the dog run.


⑤ I’ve brought my dog bed and electric carpet from home.


⑥I’m relaxing in the hotel room.
