The staff speak English or Mandarin hence communication was a breeze for me. They were very friendly, helpful and polite. The location of the ryokan is within walking distance to the town and close to the train station. Hotel provides a bus shuttle to the train station. From the train station to the hotel, there is also a complimentary ride. I had a very pleasant stay at the ryokan and highly recommend it.

Typical ryokan onsen resort. Food was excellent. But the bed was very uncomfortable and the exit from the room bathroom was a definite potential fall hazard
