It's not the worst, but I won't be using it anymore.First, I made a reservation with a breakfast only plan and asked if I could order dinner on the same day.I was told that it was possible, but that it would be expensive, so I paid an additional 8,800 yen for two people (one dinner). ) It was my fault for forgetting to make a reservation in advance, so I thought I had no choice and agreed.When it came time for dinner, we went to the venue and it was a buffet-style dinner, and as other people have written, it was delicious and the quality was at the same level as the previous story. Even though I had forgotten to make a reservation, I thought that 8,800 yen for dinner alone was too much for the two of us, so we stayed for 2 nights, but on the second day we went out to eat dinner.There was sashimi, but on the other hand, it was small enough to be difficult to prepare, side dishes that looked like retort or frozen food, and sticky rice.Some of the floors in the dinner hall were rotten and rotten, and the ceiling in the changing room of the public bath had been torn off.It's hard to believe that this is a hotel that takes money to operate.The foreign staff are friendly, but they are so unfriendly that I want to ask if the Japanese staff have ever worked with customers. Not even an inch of a smile.Here. If you're going to spend money, seriously, love hotels are cleaner and have higher quality.It was a learning experience that it's better not to choose a hotel based on price because you don't want to waste your money.The photos on the homepage are fake and should not be trusted.

I stayed here for one night (40,000 yen) on a weekend trip, but it was a somewhat disappointing experience.The only good thing was that there was fresh fruit for breakfast.The bad points were: (1) It was completely different from the image in the photo, (2) There was a musty smell when I entered the room, (3) The hot spring tub in the room was dirty and I ended up going to the public bath, (4) The bathroom is small, and if there are more than 3 people, you have to wait in line for the shower and hair dryer.

The rooms had been renovated and were relatively clean, and the food was delicious, but it was disappointing that some of the common areas were in disrepair.

There wasn't a single good thing...sad.I was disappointed that the open-air bath in the large public bath was filled with hot water using a hose from the inside bath.the locker key is brokenFirst, in order to get to the public bath, you need to pass through the restaurant.The room feels like it hasn't been cleaned in a long timeThere are stains on the sheetsThe food is not good eitherI cannot recommend it.

The only good thing about it was that there was a hot spring in the room.There were far more bad things.I used the bike, but I was told in advance that there would be a place to park it, so when I went there I believed it and found it in the middle of a slope, turned into mud. It's already scary to park on a slope, but I wondered what it would be like to get stuck in mud.The worst part was the room, where there were three spiders the size of my palm. We managed to exterminate them, but this is the worst thing for a hotel. I went to eat one hour before closing time, but there wasn't much food left, so when I asked the hotel staff, they told me they had no choice but to eat at this time. Also, when I made the reservation, the receptionist said that they would carry my luggage, but they never actually did it, and I thought it was a hotel that promised to do something they couldn't do.If you feel like going to a hotel, you should look elsewhere.

I don't think I'll ever go there again. I'm sure this series will be the same.The food buffet is also not good.Poor hospitality.Flexibility doesn't work at all.When I took a bath attached to my room, water leaked into the room.It looks deserted unlike the photo.I stayed at the inn itself and it felt like a training camp for one night and two days.

I decided to stay here after reading various reviews.First of all, I was very grateful that I was able to stay there for 2 nights and 3 days at a reasonable price.When I tried to park my car in the parking lot, someone came out of their way in the rain to show me around, looked behind me, and even carried my luggage even though it wasn't heavy. Thank you very much for your heartwarming consideration.To commemorate our long stay, they served us a delicious large piece of fish for our final dinner. When I researched the fish, I learned that it was a lucky fish, and the two of us were able to spend a very happy time with each other.The food was delicious and I looked forward to it every time. Especially the wakame rice was delicious. All of the meals were heartwarming. As we love to eat, we were happy that they would replenish the food when it ran low. thank you very much.I'm sure there are many different opinions, but my husband and I were very grateful for your help. thank you very much.
