It's quite a walk from the parking lot to the hotel entrance, so you'll get wet on rainy days😩It's the worst because you get wet from the rain from the parking lot to the covered entrance. 🤦🏻‍♂️

The exterior of the building is not that beautiful, but the inside of the hotel appears to have been renovated and was very clean, including the lobby.The large public bath is also very spacious, and the open-air bath is spacious enough that it won't be filled with just a few people, so you can relax.I didn't choose a buffet for dinner because I wanted to relax in a private room.The photos show the dishes, and all the dishes were very delicious. Breakfast was a buffet, but there were so many items that I couldn't eat them all. As you can imagine from the breakfast, the dinner buffet also has quite a variety of items, so unless you want to eat dinner quietly by yourself, I think the buffet will be enough to satisfy you.Overall, I was satisfied with the price.

My husband and I stayed here for the weekend.The dinner buffet is divided into two parts. It was the second half.Before that time, there was a line of people from the same second group.The restaurant gets very crowded as people fill up all at once.Even if they run out of food, they won't come out right away.Even after the curry ran out, it didn't come out for about 20 minutes.When it came out, it was about 1/3 of the pot.But the white rice ran out before it came out.The white rice came out slowly, and other customers were asking for it.We gave up and finished our meal 10 minutes before the time limit, but the white rice still hadn't arrived.I wanted to drink pork soup, but it was about 15 minutes before the time limit.Only about 1/4 pot was added, so I couldn't drink it.I'm sure they thought it was a waste to have leftovers, but when you add something you want to eat at a buffet and only get a little bit of it after some time, you end it because it's time.The bath was very nice, but the food was disappointing.Afterwards, even when I was in the room, the voices of the foreigners in the room diagonally in front of me were extremely loud.I wanted to rest early, but I couldn't sleep.

Great, thank you very muchThe food was delicious and of good quality and quantity.The bath was a good temperature, spacious enough, and the location was easy to find in a hot spring area.However, since my room was in front of the elevator, I was a little concerned about the sound of arrivals.

I stayed in a traditional Japanese-style room, which felt a bit dated but overall tidy. The hot spring space is very large, there are outdoor and open-air ones, there are also mud smeared on the body, and there are sauna rooms.The hotel has a parking lot at no extra charge.It is very dark outside the hotel area at night. There is a convenience store five minutes down the slope. There don't seem to be any restaurants nearby.

After the renovation, you can now enjoy not only meals but also baths. I have only experienced buffet-style meals, but I can choose what I like and am satisfied every time.There are various events to increase the number of customers, and I think you can enjoy it even if you bring your children.
