It's convenient to have free shuttle to and from the station. Even it's out of the shuttle bus service hours, we could hop on a taxi and travel to amd from station for free. Staff members are kind and helpful. The dinner and breakfast were enjoyable. Highlight was the onsen which was relaxing. The room was quiet and neat. Value for money. Would recommend the hotel.

This is a great onsen experience. Great service and friendly staff. The baths are good and clean, and the kaiseki food is fantastic. Building is a bit old, but the traditional rooms were comfortable and atmospheric. Would go again!

The staff speak English or Mandarin hence communication was a breeze for me. They were very friendly, helpful and polite. The location of the ryokan is within walking distance to the town and close to the train station. Hotel provides a bus shuttle to the train station. From the train station to the hotel, there is also a complimentary ride. I had a very pleasant stay at the ryokan and highly recommend it.

The hotel shuttle and staff were great in explaining things. The shower in the room was a little dated, but we used the Onsen bath a lot. The meals were delicious! The hotel was within walking distance to the town.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Not so good.

The place is old and not very well maintained (the bug net at the window has holes and it is not air tight on the edge, the cleanliness is at passing grade but would really like to have a better room at this rate), they say can host 5 in the room we booked, but we only have 3 and feel very squeezed... Lucky we only stay for a night of sleep and did not suffer to much... Definitely not recommended
