Thank you for staying with us for one night using Go to Travel.Facilities: I wouldn't say it's beautiful, but it feels clean and doesn't feel unpleasant.Hot spring: It's tasteless and odorless, but I feel like my shoulder pain has gotten better.Room: Typical inn.Food: Amazing! The volume is amazing! The taste was also good.Response: A little disappointing. I don't feel bad about it, but I want the guests to not have any doubts.Surrounding area: Maybe it's depopulated, but when I went around around 5pm, there weren't many shops open and it was lonely. ,

I used it with my family and it was very relaxing. When the children were looking at the carp in the courtyard in the lobby, the front desk staff kindly spoke to them and let them feed them. …
