I came here for the first time in years! The hot springs are still good, but the buffet seems to be less powerful than before.It's still quite delicious, but I was shocked to see how delicious it was at this price a few years ago, so when I came here for the first time in a while, I thought, ``Oh, it was like this.'' There is no impact at all.Before, it was a semi-private room, maybe because of the coronavirus, but that was really nice, but now it's like a large open venue...The prices are a bit high, so I wish they would put more effort into the buffet overall.I ate all the recommended eyeball-like items, but they looked amazing! As I read this, I realized that most of what I wanted to see was...There were a few that were delicious, but there were some things that I wanted to be absolutely delicious.The pizza was delicious...but I wish the other things were delicious...Good luck with the seafood...Mackerel doesn't need bread, you can make something really delicious with salt-grilled mackerel, right?I don't need something like a mackerel burger. You can make something really delicious with just mackerel.In fact, I want the buffet to be much better than the buffets at other cheap hotels, and the price is also higher than at cheap hotels.I think everyone is looking forward to the buffet, so I want them to try harder. I don't want Seifuso to be cheap or bad...it's quite expensive, but the buffet is really delicious! I want you to becomeBy the way, I couldn't find the specific menu anywhere, and there was no roast beef. I guess it changes depending on the season, but it's not a good idea to not have a menu displayed.Everyone is expecting a buffet, but you're hiding it...have you lost your confidence?There was crab, and there was all-you-can-drink alcohol, but it's not a good idea to not display the buffet menu.The buffet has become like Oedo Onsen, and I wish they would show off the difference in quality.Of course, Seifuso is more delicious, but I wish there was more of a difference...The service is generally worse than before.The towels with the Seifuso logo that you can take home have also been discontinued, and there are almost no in-room amenities. It had been downgraded.For those who have stayed here in the past and are coming back for the first time in a while, I think there are many things that are disappointing.Although I went to the Imperial Garden, the air conditioner was noisy, the refrigerator was wobbly, and some of the wallpaper was bald. As for the air conditioner, I wonder if it's really okay to provide something like this. The refrigerator is wobbly, and the door rattles every time I open or close it, but have you seriously checked the room?I guess I didn't check it beforehand...I want it to come back to life in a good way.No, it's worse than some cheap hotels. Are you seriously going to be satisfied with being checked in on your own in this state? Or rather, don't you think it doesn't meet the minimum requirements?Did you guess the strange room because the family doesn't seem to say anything?Well, it's true that they responded that way, so it can't be helped that people write bad reviews.what goes around comes around. Personally, I thoroughly praise good things, but I can only say that bad things are bad.Seifuso is twice as bad in that it did not meet expectations, but...Depending on the room in the open-air bath in the large public bath, the people taking a bath can be seen from the room, and if the wind is strong, the curtains will roll over and you can see them completely. In the first place, the bamboo blinds are a bit strange, why are they like that?I wonder if it can't be enclosed much because the view from the bathhouse will be bad?Haven't they checked and taken measures against such an elementary and fatal problem?I wonder why guests point this out to me... It seems like things used to be better in the past, but things have deteriorated drastically.It happened to be the time for the men's bath, but isn't it going to be the women's bath tomorrow?Somehow, the accommodations have gone from being good for the price to being bad for the price.A good inn always improves its quality, and no matter how many times I visit, it never disappoints.I thought Seifuso would live up to my expectations, but on my return visit, I found out that it wasn't.I don't care if the price goes up, but I want the quality to go up... Good luck!Come to think of it, the attendant asked me if I was visiting again or for the first time, and when I answered that it was twice, I was surprised.I wonder if they would have responded differently if I had told them in advance that I would be visiting again.If I had to make a guess based on that kind of reaction, I think people who see it for the first time might be guessing at a bad room.Well, I'm visiting again, but the air conditioner was noisy and the room cover was broken, so they didn't even know I was coming back.⇩A few years agoLong impression. In short, there are no major complaints. I stayed with my family on the buffet plan. There is a large parking lot, and although I arrived before check-in time, they were able to accommodate my order and carry my luggage. In other words, when we arrived in front of the building, they helped us with the transportation and gave us a pleasant guide. Adults happened to stay for free, but I later learned that it was about 20,000 yen per person. I think the price and service are balanced. Inside the building, there is a drink service, a footbath, a space with carp (popular with children, and they always stop every time they come and go, in fact, it's very popular) and karaoke.I think the room is the cheapest, but it's quite spacious! Of course there is a balcony.It feels a little old, but I think it's okay.The tea facilities provided are not bad at all.It was fun to borrow board games.The buffet was a little crowded and crowded, but it was nice to be able to close the door and have a completely private room!As for the meal itself, there were quite a few items that I would like to repeat over and over again. Overall, it felt like a higher level than an accommodation in the 10,000 yen range.After staying at Seifuso, I stayed at other hotels with 10,000 units, but I felt a huge difference.I've stayed at hotels in the same class in other prefectures, but for the same price, I think Seifuso is the most satisfying so far. In terms of cost effectiveness. I'm sure there are good hot springs for the same price that don't suit me, but no matter how you look at it, Seifuso isn't bad.The hot springs were really nice. There are various open-air baths, and the women's bath changes every day, so you'll want to go several times. The kids seemed to be having fun too. There's not much to say about the bath, so enjoy it. I went to the footbath several times, and there are towels in both the bathhouse and the footbath, which is helpful.This may be a bit of a greed, but it was the kind of inn that made me want to have some kind of relaxing space other than a bath or footbath.The store is so disappointing! ! There's nothing I want to buy, and it's the same everywhere, but it takes a long time to pay on the way home. If so, please extend your check-out time.

Rarely, alcoholic drinks at the buffet are also free. Popular foods such as beef tongue and roast beef are difficult to find. The rooms and baths are average but very nice. If I have another chance.

I decided on this accommodation after reading everyone's reviews and watching YouTube.I stayed here before going to the dinosaur museum.Both the evening buffet and the morning buffet were great! ! At night, you can eat all-you-can-eat crab, as well as steak and beef tongue (^^)We also have french fries and fried chicken for kids! We also have plates with dinosaur patterns!In the morning, you can enjoy freshly made French toast and dashimaki eggs. Smoothies are also very easy to drink, and I think even people who don't usually like vegetables will enjoy them.The room itself is so beautiful! Although I didn't go all that far, it was very well kept and I had a very relaxing and comfortable stay.The public bath was also full of services, including the ability to use your favorite shampoo, conditioner, lotion, and makeup remover! !This time we stayed for one night, but my family and I were talking about how it would have been better if we had stayed two nights.I would like to use it again when I go to Fukui.I had very good memories (^^)

I went there for the first time in 25 years. The hot springs are clear sodium and calcium chloride springs. There is also a large open-air bath and a spacious washing area, which is very satisfying.Dinner is a theater-style buffet that is prepared on the spot.The Shogi Ryuo match was being held on October 19th and 20th, and it was the place where commentary sessions were held.

The buffet didn't have a menu (names of dishes), which was a bit disappointing. But that's about all I'm dissatisfied with.
