Very clean room including the bathroom and shower considering it is shared. The staff was very nice and accommodating towards us even as foreigners. Staying at a ryokan is a bit of a culture shock but after the first night it you warm up to it and get a great experience. Food was also delicious.

Breakfast was great. We had ordered ala carte dinner and all items were very delicious. Staff was very respectful and friendly. The coffee shop had amazing tea and coffee. We didn’t venture out there for shops so can’t say anything about other nearby shopping stores. Rooms were spacious and clean. They had a common room to use with sofa etc. Loved the stay in this ryokan.

The room was spotless, the lamdscaping/ gardens were incredible, the linens were so warm and comfortable and the food (half board and breakfast) was out of this world! So good. Such a privilege to get to stay here. Word of advice, choose the Japanese breakfast over the American breakfast, it's amazing! Thanks for a wondergul stay.

Beautiful room, really comfortable and fairly quiet despite close proximity to the other rooms. Staff were lovely, spoke brilliant English and were very friendly showing me around. It is slightly further from town than some options but there are a ton of buses that pass and these are very cheap to use. Come regularly enough that they are easy to use with Suica.

No complaints at all, would go back!!! Immaculate gardens around the property, good coffee shop on the parking lots, convenience store close by, close to a major bus route.
