I had a fantastic stay at the traditional Japanese inn. The rooms were clean, airy, and well-equipped, offering a unique experience of Inn living. The public bath experience for 500 yen per session was definitely worth trying. The simplicity and cleanliness were top-notch, making our stay very enjoyable overall.

The hotel was a haven of peace and quiet after the bustle of Tokyo, offering much larger rooms than typical in Japan. It was simple, clean, and comfortable during my 6-night stay. The service was extremely nice and helpful, and I particularly enjoyed the breakfast and bathing facilities. However, there was an issue with the location being slightly far from the train station. The dining experience was delicious, diverse, and reasonably priced, but certain items like Belgian waffles needed to be reserved in advance.
