      “have a good meal”

      I look forward to coming here every year because the food is so good. This time, the grilled sweetfish was especially delicious. The beef shabu-shabu was also very tender. I would like to come back next year.

      “I was very satisfied.”

      The room was on the main building side and was ordinary, but every inch of the room was clean and had a nice view. The food was of a high quality and the various utensils were a delight. The bar also had good drinks thanks to the bartender's extensive knowledge. Overall, the level of the accommodation was high.

      “The food is excellent”

      It was the first time in a long time that I was very satisfied with a meal at the inn. The taste, the arrangement, and the taste of the dishes were all excellent! The only regret is that the way the rice (rice) was served was a bit messy. It was acceptable, but if it had been better, it would have been a perfect meal. The young staff, including some foreigners, were all polite, kind, and courteous, and I thought the inn was well trained. The room was equipped with a large towel rack for bath towels, mugs, and an accessory holder in the bathroom, which was very useful. The room was left to the discretion of the inn, but we had a spacious room with two adjoining rooms, so we were able to relax and enjoy our meal in the room without being in a hurry. The hot spring bath and changing room were a little cramped and crowded in the evening, and we rented a private hinoki bath for the evening, which was pleasantly lukewarm, and we enjoyed it while listening to the sound of the Kinugawa River without getting bored. The hot springs are ordinary, but I think the appearance of the inn, the hospitality, and the meals alone make it an inn where you can fully enjoy an extraordinary experience. I would like to stay there again if I have the chance.

      “It was a beautiful inn.”

      The inn was a place of meticulous service. All the employees were very nice and pleasant. The food was delicious and very satisfying. The store was cash only, so I would like to see it improved.

      “My daily fatigue was healed.”

      With the Corona disaster and not being able to go anywhere, I made a reservation before the emergency was declared, so I went. I was able to relax, soak in the hot springs, have a delicious meal, and relieve stress. The baths and food were great.
