The hot spring water wasn't coming out. One man was drunk, rude and excited, but the hotel staff didn't try to stop him. I can't believe it. I never want to stay in a hotel like that again.

What a wonderful stay, this location is off the beaten path for foreigners but it is such a hidden gem. It had an onsen, free drinks within a time limit, restaurant on premise, a show by performers every night, a beautiful garden and yukatas to borrow. My only regret is that I didn't stay longer. Also while they do offer a shuttle, and bikes to rent, please make sure to inform them so they can be ready to take you/accomodare you. Please also make sure that if you book, you order with breakfast and dinner, because the nearest konbini is pretty far, and many local restaurants open later or close earlier. Will come back again if given the chance.

時間よりも少し早く着いてしまったのですが、お部屋に案内いただきました。温泉も掃除が行き届いており、上がった後のドライヤーの数も十分でした。また、湯上がりにゆっくりソフトドリンク(無料)を楽しめるのはありがたかったです。 お食事もとてもおいしく、係のかたの対応もとてもよかったです。また行きたいと思います。

レンタカーをしていたので辿り着けたが、それ以外では不便なような気がした。最初にチェックインを手伝ってくれた若い女性は丁寧だったが、チェックアウト時の男性は冷たい印象だった。温泉は露天風呂もよく、アメニティもよく、洗面台もたくさんあってドライヤーもダイソンもありよかった。枕が小さいものが一つしかなく、そこは残念だった。全エリア空調が効いていてよかった。朝食は品揃えがよく、畳の上に椅子で座るのも素敵だった。個室のバスルームも広く、温泉嫌いの人も十分楽しめると思う。
