The staff was very welcoming. We loved the craft beer happy hour and our private outdoor bath. We also loved the local people we met eating outside of the hotel and shopping for pottery. We stayed for the proximity to Zao Aki resort. We didnt use it but there was a free shuttle for that.

Staff insist that there's dinner included when check in which I doubt. I go ahead with dinner even though was not feeling too great and did not finish the whole meal course. Upon check out I was then told that I have to pay $3300 yen for dinner by another staff. The check in staff did not convey the cost of the dinner at at all.

スタッフの対応も良くて、ビールは飲み放題で部屋に持っていっても良いし、時間限定のクラフトビールも最高です！漫画の量も多くて子供も喜んでました。夕食は含まれてないプランだったのですが、歩いて行ける居酒屋も有り雰囲気良かったです。貸切風呂は早い者勝ちらしく、チェックインの時に予約したほうがいいですね。朝食も山形の芋煮等ご当地グルメも有り良かったです。朝からビールも飲めます！ また、機会があれば行きたいです。
