My partner and I had a great time here. Loved the half board and the environment. It is remote but easy to get to as long as you pay attention to the bus schedule and plan ahead. It’s only a 15 mins bus ride from the Kumatori station. It’s a great escape from the city and late night emergency siren. The view from the room was stunning. Cherry blossoms were right outside the window within reach. The staff was friendly despite the language barrier. Communication about the shuttle service was clear. It might have been nicer if the shuttle service information was also shared and open for booking by email or Expedia chat box 2 days before the check in day, so we could have taken their shuttle. My favorite thing about this ryokan was that they have a lot of cute kimonos to choose from for ladies instead of everyone wearing the same style :)

easy check in despite limited English of staff. we arrived early in the morning and room was not ready. staff was able to lock our luggage and provided us with a map of the local area. there are some trails to the local shrine. room was great! extremely clean and cosy. outdoor bath and shower were great. checked out the public bath as well which was very clean and well maintained. Seiki dinner was plentyful and delicious breakfast was great free shuttle available to and from the hotel would stay again tomorrow

It is a simple ryokan which shows how it used to be. Very serene and quiet place with a small but beautiful onsen (hot pool and outside rockpool). Right there he walk to the Buddhist temple along the Kansii River starts. A most outstanding forest walk with many Buddhist features along the way. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and that 2 hour walk.

good experience on Japanese traditional accommodation
