"Despite being a foreigner in a commonly Japanese space, I was treated with the utmost care and respect. Being able to sample multiple variations of green tea (leaps and bounds more complex than any I had tasted back home) while looking out across the lake was an unforgettable experience. I wish I had stayed an extra night so I could experience a few more of the available services, but I did manage to purchase some tea leaves and orange juice for the journey. A top nitch experience all around."
"It's was really good, I forgot to ask for an early check-in but theh saw me sitting outside waiting let me check in early which was super nice, I did nock to ask if I could leave my bags but the only staff there at the time was deaf, so that's okay.
The room was good and comfy and warm.
And the bath was amazing highly recommend. I unfortunately didn't get to try the breakfast but there is an unagi place that opens at 11 they recommend which was good
The only drawback is the urinals, they need...
"This Ryokan was absolutely perfect. Train station literally across the street. Quiet area and the property itself was spectacular. Rooms were spacious, food was delicious. Also, onsen near the lake was peaceful. I would highly recommend staying here."
