"Hotel is old and not worth the money in my opinion. If you’ve been to the US and stayed at Motel 6, this is how I would describe the room I stayed in. The spring mattress was very old. I’ve been coming to Japan for so long and this is the first time I’ve had to sleep on a spring mattress that was very old and uncomfortable. A futon mattress would have been better. The hotel is nice only in the lobby. Carpet in the hallways was badly stained, elevators were slow. I stayed for one night to use the onsen after a long hiking trip, but lots of young children were screaming and used the public bath as if it was a swimming pool. It was not a relaxing experience at all."

"The staff was very helpful especially for checking on whether places were open and on obtaining a taxi. The rooms lack places to put your clothes and lack suitcases stands so one must plan to use the limited supply of hangars and live out of a suitcase. The showers are handheld so one might instead plan to use the open facilities and hot baths. The food was excellent and help is available everywhere."

"Fantastic stay in this onsen style ryokan. Had a wonderful private onsen in our room, overlooking the river and the lake beyond. Can’t ask for a more perfect experience. Waking up early to soak in our private room onsen before dressing and heading down for the Japanese style breakfast included."

"It's a great location away from the busy life of the city. The lake is crystal clear and great to swim in though we did not see other swimmers. The rooms are small, yet suffice. I'll probably come back again. "
