This hotel was better than expected from the photos. It's an older hotel that is looking a little tired but was clean & functional. The breakfast was very nice & the staff friendly. The location on the hill was quite lovely & close to the museums that we wanted to visit. I would recommend it, so long as you're not expecting a brand new & shiny place.
The hotel was clean and quiet with a friendly staff and a great view it our window. The onsen was bright and inviting with a single large pool and a sauna. There was a free washer dryer available, but it's operation wasn't simple. You'll need a vehicle to take advantage of the surrounding tourist attractions as it's at least a 1km walk to restaurants etc. The breakfast buffet was good with a standard selection of Japanese "Western Style" items.
Nice hotel room, easily slept four on the tatami. Short drive to central Abashiri. Simple, but adequate, Japanese style buffet breakfast

We took the half board and found that breakfast and dinner spreads mediocre and nothing to boasts about. However, the kitchen staff was very accommodative and did not rush us when we returned late from our tour.

Ryokan experience
Is is a 5 min drive from the JR station and only recommended if you have your own transport. We had to take a taxi each time we commute anywhere and that can be expensive. You are better off staying in town if time is an essence
Room had a great view of the lake and was clean and quite spacious if a bit bare and worn. Only essential amenities included in the room. The location is not very accessable unless you are getting to the hotel via car/taxi. Was not told this at check in but dinner was by reservation only and was pointed in the direction of several local eateries followed by the rough taxi price to get there and back which would have cost more than the dinner for two itself. The onsen style spa wasn't very nice. Breakfast was buffet style and a bit on the poor side in terms of quality.
Reasonable price. Good dinner. A little bit confused about its location by GPS and google map.

Wrong telephone no. (leading poor locate by GPS). Old hotel but adequate facilities including car parking.
Good to have free breakfast and nice environment.
Although I want to balance the cost of this hotel with what it offers, I was disappointed that the Internet connection in the room was either non-existent or extremely slow and that the cigarette smoke smell in the corridor seeped into our (non-smoking) room. (Nowadays most hotels have separate floors for non-smoking rooms.)
