Take a taxi for 600 yen and go down the mountain to the subway station. Or an 18 minute walk, totally reasonable. In the outskirts of Japan, where land is at a premium, there is such a new hotel with a decent acreage. Great experience! It is recommended to choose a room with silk soup on the first floor and an outdoor courtyard.

Increased material costs and increased utility costs are covered by additional charges, but staff are exhausted in order to keep labor costs low. …

I stayed in a room with a hot spring for two nights.The room was very nice.It's true that compared to Japanese resorts that only accept a small number of people, I think the hospitality may be lower because there are more guests, but I think that's reflected in the price.
