מלון מתוק שנותן תמורה למחיר
Pros:

חדרים נוחים וגדולים יחסית ליפן, מיקום ממש מצויין, 5 דק הליכה מהטירה, אונסן ציבורי במלון. אנחנו לקחנו חדרים באגף הישן של המלון והם היו משופצים להפליא עם מקלחות מעולות.

Cons:

ארוחת הבוקר הייתה די דלה ונאלצנו להמתין בתור כרבע שעה. מצד שני היא הייתה ממש זולה.

Pros:

Great location to the castle and walkable area! Very historic feel to the room.

Cons:

No shuttle to the station even though they said they have one. Annex building was confusing to navigate- stairs to go up or down to your room or lobby even with elevators.

Don't stay in the annexe...
Pros:

Free shuttle service to station was welcome, although times were limited. Onsen facilities were very nice. Breakfast was good with wide selection.

Cons:

We were in the Japanese style room in the annexe. We were told the futon would be put out by the maid. This only happened once in our 4 night stay. If we left them on the floor to save trouble they put them away - but we then had to get them out and make up the beds again. One of the futons was a bit stained. The tatami mats were clean, but the rest of the room was rather shabby and the flourescent lights were harsh.The drains in the bathroom smelled AWFUL!
If you book to stay here go for the main building, not the annexe.

Over all great experience! The breakfast buffet was great!
Pros:

Thanks for the hospitality! We had great experience and buffet was wonderful!!

Cons:

The sleeping wear they had in the room was too thick and get too warm.
If it’s thin material yukata it would have been perfect!
