It was quiet and relaxing. I thought the bath in the room was small, but the quality of the spring water was good and it felt good.Satisfied with the food! The horse sashimi was delicious.

"room"・It was so clean and well-maintained that I mistakenly thought it was a fairly new inn (in reality, it was founded more than 10 years ago)・The amenity bag you can take home has a stylish Japanese-style design, and the contents include toothbrushes, headbands, combs, and tabi socks, making it a great memory of your trip.・It's a very small point, but when I leaned on the chair, it slipped so easily that I couldn't sit down, so the backrest didn't work, and the cushion was thin.・The yukata or haori has a slightly dry smell. Is this an issue with the cleaning company rather than the inn?・It's not too close or too far from the next room (separate), and you can hear voices next to you when you take a bath.・I stayed in a room with two types of rooms and baths, but it was a little smaller than I expected from the photos. However, in the sleeping bath type where you can stretch your legs, you can look up at the sky, and in the hot regular bath type, you can see the garden illuminated with enchanting lights at night, so you can enjoy two types of baths in one room. It's a luxury to have.《Bath (large bath)》・The men's and women's baths are swapped when you arrive and after your meal, and although the interior does not change that much, the atmosphere changes and it feels like a good deal.-The changing room is spacious and clean. There are hand towels available for you to use, so you don't have to bring them from your room. The shelf to put the changing baskets isn't that big, so if there's more than one person, it's a bit worrisome that they end up being too close to the person next to you.- Your field of view isn't wide enough to give you a good view, so you end up looking up at the bushes in front of you or the sky. However, the bushes are neatly pruned and have the stylish feel of a bamboo bush with the wabi-sabi feel of an inn.・Since we stayed in the winter, the open air was a little lukewarm (the carefully selected ones that were left open were piping hot). It wasn't very deep, so I was half lying down in the water up to my shoulders and my body warmed up after a while.・The indoor bath is warm enough, and I thought it would be a good idea to enjoy the difference in temperature between the outdoor bath and the indoor bath, and to warm up your body differently depending on the season."cooking"・The dining area is large enough to accommodate up to 10 groups, with semi-private tables. It seems like they paid attention to the details of the interior and decorations, with the origami decorations and the hearth in the middle creating a great atmosphere.・This time, there were 3 groups including us, so we said, ``We can't have a loud conversation either. If we pay attention to the people in the back, we can easily hear the conversations they're having, but I guess we don't have to worry about that.'' The perfect distance. If there were more groups, it might get uncomfortably loud.・Enough food. In fact, there are so many items that if you're a small eater, you might not be able to finish all of them and end up with some leftovers. My companion actually left me behind, but the staff kept saying, ``I don't mind.''・It's a pity that I couldn't take what I couldn't eat back to my room. At the hotels I've stayed at in the past, I had them made into rice balls, or they carefully arranged them in a portable basket plate and delivered them to my room, wrapped in plastic wrap, but I was told that this would not be possible here. I think there are issues with food poisoning and a "commitment to finished product", so I can totally understand that.・In terms of quality, it was delicious and I was completely satisfied. However, I got the impression that there wasn't anything particularly impressive about it. Overall, it felt like a kaiseki menu often served at ryokan (not that I was dissatisfied with it, but the seasoning and presentation were very good. The quality of the horse sashimi was particularly good)-Due to the structure of the semi-private room, if two or more people are sitting in the back, the staff will not be able to reach you, so there will be a lot of movement during the meal, such as receiving food and passing plates. At some high-end inns, you are served carefully from the front, back, left and right, and all you have to do is move your chopsticks, but that's not the case here (although the staff are very polite)《Customer service》・From the moment I checked in, I was greeted by a very friendly staff member who said "Hello!" which made me feel very comfortable.・As with all inns these days, there were many foreign staff here as well. There may be some people who don't like it, but he has a very low-key attitude and polite customer service, and he has a nice smile, and he has studied Japanese, which is said to be difficult, and is providing high-level customer service, so I automatically start looking at him from a parent's perspective. I want to support you, and personally, I'm totally welcome. Thank you for making me tea after showing me around the room.・Well, I find it charming that I just have to speak slowly, or when I ask a complicated question, the Japanese staff looks a little flustered and keeps asking me questions. LOL Studying Japanese is said to be difficult at the world's top level. I support you・Even when we pass each other while moving around the hostel, they stop and give way to us, and they greet us with a not-so-excessive smile.It may sound obvious, but it's hard to do so naturally in some hostels, so I'm very satisfied.・There is a rest area where you can get a free drink (one can), and the interior design is very tasteful and stylish, giving the impression of a concentrated Japanese tradition.・It's nice to be able to make memories of your trip by asking, "Would you like to take a photo?" during a meal or after checking out.・Thank you for waving at me until I could no longer see my car, even though I was looking in my rearview mirror when I was leaving the hotel by car after checking out.

The parking lot is small (.-∀-) To put it bluntly, the hair dryer in the public bath is weak.

The accommodation was better than I expected.It was a higher-grade building material used for pillars, etc.The amount of food was perfect for my stomach, which doesn't eat much.The drawstring bag to hold towels, etc. was stylish and nice 😃In the morning, I wake up to the chirping of birds and feel a little light 😃The thing that touched me the most was when they saw me off in the morning, they held up their hands and waved until the car was out of sight.The best hospitality ever😃I’ll save up some money and go again 😃

I used it on a family trip to Kyushu.Overall, the hospitality was just right and it felt friendly (^^)It was snowing and the bath was very cold, but the hot spring felt so good and relieved the fatigue from the trip.I think each person has their own preferences regarding the temperature of hot springs, but I feel that the temperature is different between the room bath and the large public bath, so I think you should go where you like.I felt that they were paying close attention to the customer's behavior, even taking out their shoes when they noticed.Thank you for your help!

I came here on a family trip.It's not cheap in terms of price, but it's a very clean and nice inn, plus the customer service, the amenities in the room, and everything else makes it worth the price! It was so wonderful.The kotatsu in the room was very cute.The best part was the customer service.I liked the attention to detail.

It's my values.The customer service was always smiling and very nice.The room was quiet and relaxing, and the bath was nice, but there was a rock in the bathtub, so I couldn't stretch my legs and it felt small.When it comes to meals, I tend to eat slowly while enjoying drinks and conversation, and I like to wait 5-10 minutes for the food to be served, but I felt like I was being rushed as the food was served one after the other. . The taste was bland due to the taste of the ingredients, and the alcohol didn't go well either lol. Also, there is no need to call before meals.It was nice to be able to use the large communal bath even at night, and the check-out at 11am was a relaxing one.
