Hotel was lovely. Staff very friendly. Used the public bath which was incredibly relaxing. Breakfast was a good combination of Asian and western so something for everyone. Annoying we had to pay extra for the children for breakfast despite clearly booking the room for four. Don't quite understand why adults got it free but not children. Good location, near the shops.

The rooms were nice and a good size, however the see-through bathroom door lacked privacy. The breakfast was disappointing and the lobby often smelled of smoke which wasn’t very pleasant while eating a meal. Also expected the gym to be included. The location was great and the overall size of the room was pleasant.

Stayed 3 nights. Rooms are very small which is common in Japan. On 2nd day the toilet started stinking, it got worse during night. After complaining to the front desk technician were called to fix the issue on 3rd day. On check out requested to have refund for 1 night front desk Manager didn't cooperte and acted for not understanding English. After sometime he informed they don't do refunds and suggested to contact booking company Expedia for refund. Haven't received any credit from Expedia yet.

The onsen was very nice and conveniently opened at 5:00 AM to 9:00 AM, before breakfast. The gym itself was well-equipped, however, the spacing in between the equipment was inadequate to accommodate working out normally. Most all else was very modern, extra clean, and spotless. I loved the room itself. The bed was great and comfortable. One point noticed was wall damage, in some spots. Hallways had a peculiar fragrance even though they cleaned and vacuumed everyday, more of like animal fur or something? A dog or dander? Odd.

大浴場あり

中心地からは徒歩15～25分くらいですが、バスが多いので不便は感じませんでした。 大浴場があるのが嬉しいですが25時までなので、朝までは入れたら嬉しいです。 たまたまだと思いますが、ホテルに戻ったタイミングで観光バスから大量の外国人観光客が降りて来てエレベーター（3基ありますが）が大渋滞で部屋に戻るのが一苦労でした。

こちらのホテルは初めて泊まりましたが、ダブルサイズのベッド2台の部屋で、ベッドはとても寝心地が良くて熟睡出来ました。 テーブルセットはテレビの正面にあって、ちょっと座りにくいというか、座面が小さめでちょっと高かったのですが、隣のコンビニで買ったおやつを食べるのに便利でした。 朝食も美味しかったです。静かに過ごせるホテルで、オススメです。

Okay hotel with nice onsen and gym. Two major issues: 1. Tiny breakfast room and so you need to collect a timed ticket. By the time you check in, the perfect time for you day is gone and so you have to compromise and reorganise your day. Really they should have told us this in advance so we could pre-reserve breakfast times. 2. THEY GYM IS NOT FREE. This infuriated me as it’s not mentioned anywhere on Expedia, and on their own website it’s half what they are asking at reception. Really this is not acceptable.
