We booked the premier garden suite and LOVED it. My partner is Japanese and said it reminded him of his grandmothers house growing up. The room is just a simple/beautiful traditional Japanese style room. Although the garden area could use some sprucing up, it was very nice/relaxing. We had a car and I do not not that I would have stayed here otherwise, the location is off the beaten path. That being said, the location was one of the main reasons we choose this place. We felt like locals in a sense, so we loved the location. If your an early riser like me, there are no coffee shops such within walking distance. If you want a “traditional Japanese” style room, definitely consider premier suite. No onsen but the bathroom was SO nice, it was like having our own private sentó.

Beautiful ryokan recently remodeled. Wonderful staff. Delicious food. A bit off the beaten path but being out of the main city offers a very relaxing environment. If you have the Go app and don’t mind paying for taxis, then the location is not an issue. Very pleasant experience overall.

We LOVED this place! We got the room with a private bathroom and garden. The garden was beautiful and our room was very large and spacious. The food they served in the restaurant was delicious and very well priced. Very nice staff. The place is located a bit away from the city, which is just what we wanted. It is located a very short 3 min walk from the bus stop. Very easily accessible. They will ship your luggage for you through a company if you ask (I recommend cuz it’s not fun taking luggage in a bus). Overall loved this place and would come back again.

The Ryokan is good. Our room was smaller than expected. I guess that is the case with most places to stay in Japan. There was certainly some smoke smell near our rooms on the days we stayed here. I wonder if the people next door were smoking or maybe the ones before that. It was like the smell was infused in the walls and when we opened our room door, the smell was stronger.

I look forward to staying here again in the future. The facility was well kept and the staff was friendly and helpful. It's a bit of a walk away from the main town but that makes it extra quiet and I felt safe.

The service was very personal and the food was good with variety and affordability. The place was clean with a beautiful garden in the middle of the restaurant portion. The bedrooms had more room than expected. My only negative comment would be regarding the sleeping situation. If you are not prepared for a small firm futton mattress with a small pillow you may want to pay for one of the more luxurious rooms. Also the location is a little outside of town so you will need to either walk a little ways or take one of the many busses in the area. Very peaceful.
