Clean ryoukan in a picturesque little alley, a spacious room and a sublime private bath. You also recieve a free voucher for the nearby ki no yu onsen. The breakfast is massively large and tasty, I'll definitely visit again when I'm in Kobe.
Nice and big space for chilling out. Has a nice bath tub separate from bathroom. Free "medical soap" to relieve fatigue given as part of the bath tub experience.
I chose the Japanese traditional room and the room is spacious.
But the room got cold at night. Air con (warmer) was not strong enough.
Must be in the room by 2330 or be locked out for the night (i.e. you can never leave) despite a pizza joint 5 minures walk away ipen until 0000 as well as 24 hour Lawson and 7-11.
Otherwise this is great value for your monies.
