We enjoyed our three night stay very much, and we're happy that we chose this hotel. The room was a good size and fit our needs. The only complaint was the terrible pillows and fairly hard beds. The restaurant proved to be decent. My Japanese wife loved the breakfast choices and I was happy with some western basics, like great scrambled eggs, reasonable sausages terrific coffee and granola. The real treat was the outside Onsen, we chose to go when others were sleeping or dining. Easily enjoyed an hour twice a day with rarely others around. But we were there midweek which we'd do again. Lawson's across the street for supplies was hand and the walk to the cute town centre was easy and short. Oh, and the shuttle runs from 8:10 am to 9:10 pm twice an hour. Perfect. Yes it's a older hotel, but it's fine. The heat was on, the place was quiet and the Onsen was superb. If the price is right, book it.
