"What a gem!! We stayed for 4 days. Had to readjust our arrival and departure date at last minute due to typhoon Shanshan☹️. They even refunded our last day stay without asking as we had to leave a day earlier due to approaching typhoon.We arrived at midnight by train and the manager met us on site to welcome us and explain everything. Having a washer and dryer in one machine on site saved us! We would do a load of laundry every night and in the morning have clean clothes. Saved a lot of time...

"We enjoyed our stay here. My daughter loved the onsen and traditional style of this hotel. Don't forget to take your shoes off before checking in! Free ramen after 9 pm and the breakfast buffet was a great deal on traditional Japanese breakfast items (you can pay separately at the hotel if you don't want every day). The room was clean and all toiletries provided. Would stay here again. "
