Spacious room with great dinner service.
Pros:

Staff can communicate in English pretty well and really friendly. Dinner was excellent. Onsen is small but decent and not crowded. Room is very spacious and there's even a massage chair in our room. ☺️

Cons:

More pillows would be nice. (Now only 1 pillow is provided). Location is a bit further out in the area.

Pros:

Staff were attentive, food was good and the open air onsen made the experience very memorable. They also had kids Yukata and a small play area.

Cons:

Toilet was a bit cramped, would be good if the toilet bowl was separated from the shower.

A bit too expensive for a remote hotel.
Pros:

The dinner and breakfast was excellent.

Cons:

A bit too expensive for a remote hotel. The hotel was very good but I am not sure it is worth the price. Ther were very few gusted at the hotel. The main attraction seems to be the Onsen and the bath robes, which I did not use because I don't like Onsens.

Onsen bueno
Pros:

El espacio tan grande que teníamos en la habitación. El onsen que estaba fuera estaba superior ! Nos encantó ☺️ las instalaciones del onsen bastante viejitas, pero en general bien. Desayuno japonés. Atención del personal buena. Yukatas para elegir diferentes colores , y tallas , muy bonitos. Los futones un poco cutres, pero dormimos bien.

Cons:

Podría estar mejor las instalaciones de losnonsen. Un poco viejos . Los futones un poco incómodos. Que no haya opción de otro desayuno que no fuese japonés.
