    garden view
    confusing check-in
    inadequate waste

    comfortable tatami beds, nice bathroom size, cute little garden

    Key retrieval is convoluted!!! The check-in office is misleadingly far from the hotel!!! More garbage cans needed to handle food waste conveniently!!! A thorough explanation of check-in procedures would enhance the experience immensely!!!

    traditional aesthetics
    peaceful retreat
    check-in inconvenience
    drinking water access
    quiet location

    The accommodation embodies a charming blend of traditional ryokan style with modern comforts. The location, while quiet and residential, allowed for a peaceful retreat after busy days of exploration, and the excellent bus service was a plus. However, coordinating check-in involved a 10-minute walk, and access to drinking water could be more convenient. The nearby breakfast spot is a must-visit, known for its delicious fried fish.

    clean room
    great amenities

    comfortable but no daily cleaning

    The room was spotlessly clean, providing a great sense of comfort. We appreciated the variety of amenities, especially the availability of drip coffee. The location was perfect. we walked to many attractions easily. I loved the garden view outside. it added a peaceful ambiance to our stay.

    traditional aesthetic
    helpful staff
    inconvenient check in
    quiet retreat

    The traditional ryokan aesthetic combined with modern conveniences truly stood out. The staff were helpful, even assisting with laundry, and the property offered a quiet retreat despite being close to many attractions. However, the 10-minute walk to check in was a bit inconvenient.
