This was my first visit, but thank you very much for your help!The location is a little hard to find, but it was great in the sense that you could be with your dog.Other hotels have some restrictions on where you can go, but here there were many free places, which was great.I heard that this place was originally a company-owned resort, but the owner bought it and turned it into a pet-friendly hotel.Rather than calling it a modern hotel these days, it might be easier to describe it as a relaxing hotel with a Showa feel.The food is delicious! The rice is very delicious. Maybe it's because the water is good too!Each piece is carefully made.Breakfast was also very delicious as I don't eat grilled fish at home!The room was well-cleaned and looked old, but that was a plus!Also, it was a hotel that I would definitely like to visit!(The hot spring in the bath is sourced from the source, so it was really smooth!)

If you have a pet, you should definitely stay at this inn at least once! As I said, they respect pets and the service is attentive 👍

Visited during the holidays. It was fully booked. The rooms and facilities themselves were old and had some concerns in some places, but they were worth the price. There is a wide selection of dishes, but the quantity may be a little unsatisfactory for some young people. The Japanese breakfast was good, but I only had water and coffee or tea after the meal, so it would have been even better if I could drink green tea. I was able to make a reservation just before the holidays, so I think it's a hidden gem.

There are both good and bad reviews, but when I went there, I felt I could understand both.People who are concerned about hygiene and other details may not want to go there.This is a recommended inn for those who want to enjoy a hot spring with their dog, putting their dog first.Anyway, the staff's care and consideration towards the dogs is outstanding.I could feel the kindness in seeing a visually impaired dog taken in by the poster dog.The inn feels old, but you can use the self-shampoo room for free, and it is fully equipped with bath towels, shampoo, and a hair dryer.Indoor dog runs may be too small for large dogs, but I think it's a great way for dogs and owners to play without stress even on extremely hot or rainy days.All dog supplies are available in the room, so you only need to bring your own food.There were only 8 rooms in total, but only 3 rooms were occupied on Saturday.The hot springs are decent for an accommodation facility of this size, and although the sizes change, the large one also has an open-air bath.I really felt that the young staff members were working hard in various areas for the company.

This is an inn where you can enjoy your time with your pet. It's very safe because we can share the same room and eat together. The dogs and cats at the hotel were also very clever and we were able to play with them at the indoor dog run. The hot springs are comfortable, the food is delicious, and the staff are cheerful and energetic.This is an inn I'd like to stay at next time.

Thank you for taking care of my son and dog.There are many villas around the hotel, and the buildings themselves seem to be old, but the hotel is in a very quiet location and has a calm atmosphere.There is no elevator, but neither my son nor I had any problems.First of all, the staff was very warm and kind to both humans and dogs, and I was able to spend a comfortable time there.My favorite hot springs were kept clean.The temperature seemed a little high, but it was the temperature I liked.The open-air bath felt a little lukewarm, probably because the temperature had dropped, but I was able to soak in it slowly.Is the meal Japanese beef rock grilled? I received it.The meat was very tender and served with rock salt, but you could really feel the flavor of the meat and it was delicious.The other dishes were all delicious in terms of number and quantity and were just right for me.The final dessert was a plate of fruit and two types of sweets, as well as a choice of drinks, making it a satisfying meal until the end.There was an indoor dog run in front of the front desk, and there were plenty of supplies, so I was able to stay with peace of mind, even if I didn't bring anything.And it was so cute that they wrote the dog's name on the door plate of the room.Thank you very much for your help.thank you very much.

Used by 2 cats and 4 family members.For dinner, the main dish was Wagyu beef shabu-shabu, along with tempura and sashimi. The portions were just right and I felt full after eating them all.The hot spring water wasn't very hot, rather it was lukewarm, but it was a nice hot water that warmed up in a short time and didn't get cold easily.The staff were polite and I was able to stay comfortably.

When I went there, I found out that it was unexpectedly deep in the mountains. |Anyway, the response is the worst! I was supposed to pay by credit card, but we only accept cash! That's... why? …
