The onsen was nice. We booked a room for 4 people, and for the price we paid, the room was very disappointing. The bathroom was tiny. The facilities were old. There was hardly any space after laying out the beds for 4. The hotel overall is quite dated and was not worth the high price.

가족탕이 예약이 쉬웠으면 더 좋겠습니다. 그외 남탕 여탕은 매일 저녁 8시마다 바뀌어 다양하게 이용하기 좋았습니다. 방도 넓고 아침식사도 맛있었습니다 ^^

료칸 직원분들 친절하시고 숙소가 깨끗해서 좋았구요. 특히 그곳에서 일하시는 한국인 직원분 감사했습니다. 다만, 밑으로 내려가는 탕이 있는데 그곳의 온도가 좀 뜨거운것이 좀 아쉬웠습니다. 그것 외에는 정말 좋았네요. 다음에는 가족과 한번 더 방문 하고 싶은 곳이었습니다.

龍門の滝に行きたくて近くの旅館を探し宿泊させていただきました。旅館の目の前に山がありクワガタなどの昆虫採取ができました。また、旅館の方は皆さま非常に暖かく、温泉も快適でした。機会があればまた是非宿泊したいと思います。
