Loved the experience we had here. Rooms were clean and very spacious by Japanese standards. While the private
Bath’s a tad old, we still loved every bit of this traditional experience. Enjoyed the hot spring facilities too. Would return!

The sea view from the room is amazing. The staff is friendly. There are nearby convenience stores. And we have tried the hotel's complimentary indoor and outdoor onsens which are good too. Recommended!

Great little ryokan for a reasonable price
Great ryokan. We paid for half-board, so dinner and breakfast were included. Typical kaiseki dinner. Rooftop bath was amazing. The public baths overlook the sea and provides an incredible view. On the men's side there are two baths indoor, one hot and one cold. There's also a dry sauna and an outdoor bath.

An Ok place
In the name of eco mindedness, there is not much service. We told front desk that our bathroom sink has bad drainage, water would fill up sink and drains super slow, plus our drinking water tank is almost empty, yet nothing happened. Location of hotel is great though with front view of the sea.

Apart from the private hot spring in room and near the sea view, it is not worth to stay here. This is an old hotel, the decoration is old style. Water leaks from air conditioner but no one answer the hotline by the front desk. The staff are not very helpful. However, the location is still convenient, quite a lot of restaurants and a shopping mall nearby.
