I don't recommend having a buffet for dinner.There weren't many items, and there was one boiled dish that tasted a little rotten. There was a steak, but other than that it wasn't very tasty, so everyone else was trying to get it and it was sold out in about 5 minutes.There are only two types of fruit and one type of cake.There were so many of them that no one seemed to have touched.I think I'll come back for breakfast...It's a shame because the bath is nice.We ask for improvement.Also, there was a dirty lady at the front desk.I can't sit on the toilet because the seat is dirty.I was protesting.Maybe it was stuck with poop?

The outdoor bath is beautiful. The water is of excellent quality. The sauna is a plus that will make you get out with looking 10 years less.But.The hotel has in all hallways and elevator a very strong urine smell. Even in the rooms, less strong. The carpet has big stains in the hallways.Only one of the reception personnel speak some words of English and the do not possess a portable translator.Rooms are smelly because the windows cannot open. (I understood it's because of the insect and very ancient installations making it not possible to change it to a new system).Beds are old and not comfortable.The buffet is basic and will bring nothing interesting.They are somewhat kind but the Japanese culture makes it hard to facilitate thing as they must follow some restricted guidelines and are lost out of them.The local area is amazing and I definitely recommend visiting and staying in a onsen. But I cannot recommend the RIN hotel in its current state.I really hope they will close for maintenance of their building. If they do it can become a must visit place in Hokkaido.

I went there last summerThe accommodation was clean and the staff were friendly.The hotel buffet was also good.I went in the summer, but Daeseolsan Mountain was so magnificent that I could enjoy the energy to my heart's content. I thought it would have been better if I had come in the winter.One thing that is disappointing is that there are huge moths flying around, so if you are afraid of bugs, don't go out at night....
