The staff are very warm. Your kind words warmed my heart.I used it in training. We had a BBQ at night, and I was thrilled to be able to grill it. The meat was very tender and delicious. For breakfast, miso soup is served in a small pot for each person, so you can enjoy a warm miso soup. Even though it's training, breakfast times are different, so miso is a nice idea.I'm sorry that I left you feeling unwell.

The building is quite old and gives the impression that the training facility is being used as a lodging facility. The room was also showing signs of deterioration, but it was well-cleaned and comfortable. The only problem was that the communication environment was not good. Mobile connection was completely useless, and Wi-Fi was barely connected.The food is perfect both in taste and quantity. It was a good accommodation with great care and attention.

One of the most friendliest and best service I've experienced. The staff was more than accommodating. Good for families with kids and close to Lake Biwa.

The staff were kind and made me feel comfortable.It feels like a training facility, so it's different from a hotel or inn, but if you think of it as such, I don't have any complaints.Payment is cash onlyThere's a table tennis table! I was excited, but it turned out to be a table tennis table.This is the only regretThere were other toys as well.

The room was a bit small, with four single beds, as it was a facility mainly used for seminars and training. So there are individual desks, but no tables. There is a large public bath, but the men's bath is a little bigger! It's not a hot spring either! The rice is delicious! The staff are warm! polite! This is a repeat! Recommended!

I have attended a number of summer camps here as an instructor, and have been very satisfied with the facilities and the staff. Up front, I need to say that if you are expecting luxury glamping, you may be disappointed. Like the famous former first lady of Indonesia, the place is beginning to show its age, and could use a face lift. The rooms are clean but small and extremely basic. The big baths in the main hall and annex are extremely good, and I was very satisfied with the food. I have a somewhat peculiar diet: no wheat, no soy, no vegetable oil, no monosodium glutamate, no sugar. This means most common Japanese foods such as udon, curry, and katsu are off the menu, but the restaurant staff valiantly prepared my special meals, and they were fantastic. Mr. Maeda, the manager, is an absolute treasure, a tireless majordomo who runs the facility with military precision and extreme competence. Top marks.

His attitude is amazing. This was reflected in the food and cleaning. Although it is not a new facility, it is surprisingly well-maintained. I didn't have high expectations for the food, as it seemed like a facility for companies and groups, but I was impressed with the quality of the ingredients and the ingenuity. It is comparable to inns that sell food. I feel like each staff member is looking for something extra for the customers.What was a little disappointing was the choice of flowers at the venue and the breakfast information on the reservation site.The person who accompanied me seemed to think that the only option was egg-cooked rice.It was a nice breakfast, so I thought I'd reconsider the guide.
