The male staff at the reception had a bad attitude.I made a reservation for two rooms and asked them to share only the meals and pay separately, but on the day they were all together and they didn't even apologize and the male staff gave me a disgusted look and complained. I was told.I will never go there again.

It's a good hotel, but I personally felt it was more expensive compared to the hotel I stayed at the previous day.However, since it is a hot spring town called Sumoto Onsen and it is a hotel that has been around for a long time, the pricing is reasonable. It's unfashionable to compare it with hotels that have been built recently.The indoor bath and toilet are not separate, but the bath goes to a hot spring, so it's not a problem. It was a bit troublesome that bath towels were not provided in the public bath.The food was reasonably priced and delicious.

For use on family trips.After all, it is very pleasant to be able to see the sea view from the room.The bath in the sauna building is clean and has a nice view of the sea, but it's a bit disappointing because men and women use it on different days.It's a shame that the bath in the hotel doesn't have a view of the ocean.You can also use the pool in the summer, which is great for families with children.Although the meals are not buffet style, they are plentiful and very delicious.There is also night-naki soba service, which is strange because even though you are full, you can still eat a little.Although the facility itself looks a little old, it is relatively clean and the customer service is pleasant.

Although the interior is old-fashioned, the rooms are spacious and the views are beautiful.The explanation at the reception was also good and thorough.However, the main thing was the food, which was very disappointing.The dish used conger eel, but the tempura was greasy and the pickles lacked depth.Also, the skin of the conger eel was so mushy that I could only cut it into 2.3 pieces.This cost me 80,000 yen which was very disappointing.I think it's a very nice hotel as long as the food is good.

I stayed here on August 17th. It's a women's bath, but there was a person who took a "large" bath in the bathtub. prohibited for use at the entranceThere was a notice, but no explanation was given to the guests. It's not the inn's responsibility, but what do you think?

I posted a review on Rakuten Travel, but it was deleted because it violated the rules, so I'll write it here.Although it cannot be denied that the hotel is aging, the staff's service and greetings were solid. The only disappointing thing was that the person with full body tattoos was taking a bath. There doesn't seem to be anything written at the entrance to the public bath stating that it is prohibited.
