Good sized room for 3 people, though we didn't realise one bed would be smaller than the others. It was not a problem though. Bathroom needed a little extra cleaning and the shower curtain probably needed replacing if you looked close enough. Reception kindly let us leave our bags after checkout so we could get lunch before leaving Kusatsu.
