Upon hearing that his father has been hospitalized, 30-year-old Kakioka Tetsuro rushes back home after a decade to rescue his family's historic inn, Niji no Ya. However, he is shocked to find that the inn has undergone a drastic transformation. The once prestigious establishment, with a rich 100-year legacy, has now deteriorated into a chaotic environment filled with difficult employees. Among them are Terakado Lucy Kazuko, a blunt flamenco dancer; Kageshima Shunsaku, a germaphobe manager who despises hot springs; Asatsuki Momoyo, a single mother and devoted head waitress to her son Ringoro; Ringoro, a cheerful employee with a love for his mother and unicycle; Uno Kanata, a chef addicted to UNO; and Umekoshi Hifuji, an elderly staff member who has been at the inn for four decades. Unaware of the challenges that await him, Tetsuro is initially turned away upon his arrival. Despite his persistent efforts to gain entry, he is met with resistance and eventually breaks down in tears at the entrance. It is then that a mysterious stranger appears. Will Tetsuro be able to overcome the obstacles and earn the acceptance of the inn's employees?
