Everything! This place was the highlight of all my stays during Kumano Kodo Nakahechi route. First and foremost, the hospitality, generosity and authenticity of the owners family, who have been operating there for nearly 20 years! It started even before checking in (the wife let me check in early as I got there too early), then the food they prepared from scratch was locally sourced and prepared with so much care and attention, let alone they all tasted great! I was extremely lucky to have been able to book this place at the last minute as they are normally booked out months in advance. Also their homemade umeshu was the best I've had in my life, alongside my late grandmother's. It reminded me of my grandma so much!
I can't really think of much, but if I have to pick something, the temperature of the bath was luke warm. But nothing that can't be fixed.

I’m always a little skeptical of places with such high ratings, but this is fully deserved. Beautiful accommodation in a great location. The dinner and breakfast meals were fantastic, the onsen brilliant and the staff lovely. The best accommodation on my trip.
Not a thing.

Everything was fantastic. Beautiful views. Room and onsen were amazing. Staff and food top class.
Nothing

Lovely quiet environment. Only about eight or 10 rooms so not a huge amount of guest stay at once. The staff made you feel really important the way they served your food and spoke to you. All the food presented was beautiful and delicious and the staff treat you well. We only stayed for the one night as we were doing the Kumano Kodo but wish we could’ve stayed longer
