Staff insist that there's dinner included when check in which I doubt. I go ahead with dinner even though was not feeling too great and did not finish the whole meal course. Upon check out I was then told that I have to pay $3300 yen for dinner by another staff. The check in staff did not convey the cost of the dinner at at all.

豪華な高級旅館ではないが、温かみがありゆっくりできる宿です。女性グループでの利用なので、ワイワイすごくことができた。 女性の受付の方は、とても親しみがあり好印象です。 オールインクルーシブを案内され、部屋に入る前にクラフトビールを１杯。なくなるとすぐに補充してくれます。　 風呂上がりのビールも最高です。 部屋には、近くのお店のお饅頭が置いてあり、お土産の参考になりました。 温泉は屋上に内風呂と露天あり、露天風呂が高温だと内風呂はぬるめ。内風呂が高温だと露天風呂がぬるめとなっていた。 夕食は、牛、鴨と肉好きの私は大満足。 朝食は、ビュッフェで、山形ならではの食材が並び、お米も美味しくてご飯がすすみます。こだわりの朝食でした。 また利用したいお宿です。 残念なのは、かみのやま温泉がとても静かなこと。また、賑わってたくれることを願います。
