A spectacular Ryokan experience in a quiet residential area. The open air bath was amazing. Very comfortable accommodations. Be warned however, there are very steep chairs and the upstairs beds are all very low to the ground or directly on the ground. We would not recommend for elderly or people with mobility issues.

The main room was very comfortable, featuring a large bed, washer-dryer, kitchen, and mini-fridge. The bathroom was beautiful and fully equipped, and the Dyson hair dryer was a great touch. The outdoor bathtub was truly relaxing. Upstairs, there was another bathroom, an additional bedroom, and a dining area. The staff was very kind at all times and helped us send our suitcase ahead to Tokyo to make our journey easier. The area where it is located is very quiet, ideal for relaxing.

A little dark, and a little cold

Our stay was somewhat comfortable, but certainly there were parts that we missed. For example, there was no seating area on the first floor, other than the two beds. There also was extremely limited lighting, making the whole suite feel rather dark and cold. I think the overall aesthetic was, in photos, sleek, modern and well done; it just didn’t equate to real life comfort for my family. The hot tub was nice, but, didn’t outweigh the drawbacks, in my opinion. The staff was delightful when they were available, but we checked in much later than we expected (around 10pm) and had a bit of a hard time. That said, they emailed us back right away when we reached out at that time, even though they weren’t at the desk.

This was a beautiful property with very good staff members. However, there is an obvious mold problem in the main bathroom, with a musty smell and back mold around the wooden tub. We had serious allergies, and a strong reaction and I wasn't able to sleep well. They had air filters around the first and second floors but this doesn't do any good. I had alerted the front desk of this problem, she mentioned they will clean it. I think at this point it is not something that can be cleaned but the wooden tub needs to be completely removed to solve the problem. I just want to make this aware so they have this problem fixed.

It was such a beautiful property. Japan is safe in general no matter where you go but what a beautiful property this was. Spacious with a large bedroom, outdoor ‘onsen’ bath area. Extra bedroom/dining/living area upstairs with a powder room. Main bath has a large walk in shower and another onsen type bath as well. We forgot our pouch there with our passports and they reached out to us right away. Staff was always polite and helpful, but this literally goes with everyone we dealt with during our trip. We highly recommend this place!
