No upstairs internet, no black out blinds so light streams into the room at 5.30am. Can hear loud people in adjoining room upstairs. Great shower, clean modern layout. Nice staff. Quite a good place to stay, but the issues above stop it being a 5.

Our unit came with two bedrooms, one full bathroom and an extra toilet/sink, a dining area, refrigerator, microwave, and even a Dyson hairdryer. They provided all the bathroom amenities including shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, face wash, face lotion, body lotion, wash cloths, razor, hair brush, shower caps, q tips, and toothbrushes. It was plenty of space for two adults and two teens. My teens enjoyed using the serene garden tub every night. A delicious traditional Japanese breakfast (which varies slightly daily) was included every morning during our stay. We had very comfortable beds and pillows. Our unit also came with a small all-in-one washer/dryer combo (laundry detergent and fabric softener were provided). Also, slippers and umbrellas were in the unit for our use. Staff were very friendly, informative, and communicated very efficiently via email/messaging and in person. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

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.
