"Everything was amazing. The room was spacious and my wife and I were able to rest and recover after a long multi week trip through Japan and Korea. The only downside was that the laundry facilities were temporarily out of service during our stay. Other than that I highly recommend for a peaceful night to recover the body."

The staff couldn't have been more helpful, even took our luggage to the rooms and then came and got them on check-out and actually took us in a car to the bus stop which was lovely. The area is beautiful. The onsens were amazing I preferred the open air up onsen myself. The dinner and breakfast were great, you definitely won't go hungry there, keep up the good work."
