great place to relax and enjoy the onsen. good and helpful staff. far from train station however they do provide shuttle service, you just need to call the hotel to arrange for it. not much around the area for shopping though,

Rooms were traditional and clean. Staff is very friendly and accommodating. Not many other facilities other than the baths; but the baths were great.

My boyfriend and I very much so enjoyed our stay at this ryokan. There was an initial amount of confusion with the language - only one employee spoke English, and the other employees seemed VERY stressed about the language barrier. For instance, I had gotten an email implying that we were getting dinner as part of our stay (which was not the case), which caused some confusion when we arrived. Additionally, we had to call the inn to get picked up at the train station, which was difficult as I only had an American phone. I also didnt realize that the inclusion of an on-site onsen meant we wouldnt have a shower *in* the room, which was an interesting surprise.That said, we loved our stay. Certainly not the most comfortable experience, sleeping on the tatami mats, but comfort isnt why we wanted to try staying at a Japanese traditional inn. The inn was also a bit run down - definitely in need of a renovation. However, it was a very unique experience and Im glad we did it. The onsen was so lovely and relaxing - I dont think Ive ever felt SO relaxed and chill.Additionally, the dinner (which we ended up scheduling anyway) and the breakfast (included) were incredible. We had such a cool experience with the traditional shabu shabu in a private restaurant, and the breakfast was full of foods I had never had in my life.Overall, the inn was a very worthwhile experience.
