We did not have meals. The property and room were very nice, but the location wasn’t convenient for us. Not a very vibrant area, although it was within walking distance to main train station. The drawback was that the room was not soundproof to the road noise, and was a little drafty. Enjoyed the wood bathtub, the public bath, the toiletries and tea in room. Staff was very friendly.

The staff and room were great. Unfortunately the room location was facing the main road so you can hear the cars passing by all through the night. So if you are a light sleeper like me, it was hard to sleep. But I did love the in room shiatsu service so that help me sleep the second night I was there.

The staff people were especially helpful ..and fun…especially the woman who showed us how to put on the yukata correctly. The bath was exceptionally clean and lovely .and just the right temperature. Only disappointment was that check in was at 4:00 …and by most properties allow check in at 3:00. Overall, a lovely experience!
