- Very run down hotel masquerading as a Ryokan. More akin to a run down hostel. - Smoking is allowed indoors so common areas and rooms smell of smoke. - Have to be out of rooms between 10 and 1600. - Not allowed to take room key. - Poor location. - Uncomfortable beds. - Inaccurate listing images that do not reflect rooms or hotel.

this property is a 10/10 for me. the owners are very sweet and even sat down and told me the history of this beautiful ryokan. It was comfortable and beautiful. When I’m in Japan again I will definitely book a stay here again.

Very nice owners and interesting to stay in a traditional Japanese hostel in an older style building.

There were many people smoking in the common area which then made our room smell a bit like smoke.

Lovely vibe in this ryokan. The owner was really friendly, upgraded us to a bigger room. She walked us to a nearby traditional restaurant and shared a drink with us. She gave us some really good tips to maximise our travel experience. Great location in a small street in a quiet area but a 2 min walk to a train station.

Very good place and near the station. This area have some good local food.

Nothing

The room and the Ryokan were really nice. A bit cold during winter but nothing the AC can't solve once you are in your room. Good location for day trips to Arima, Kobe and Osaka. It was a really nice experience staying here, since the staff was really helpful with everything.

Just a small nitpick but there weren't enough mugs in the shared kitchen.
