Staff were very friendly and helpful! The hotel has a happy hour for a 2 hour period with free alcohol, drinks and snacks! A great place to unwind after a city vibe of you were previously in Tokyo! Nice relaxing Onsen. A little bit of a walk from the main strip but this can be a positive if you need some piece and quite!
