This is a beautiful property and we felt very spoilt to share it for a night. Overall the start are very gracious and accommodating. The check in however felt rushed. This was our first time at an onsen and we felt overwhelmed with the venue and proper protocols.

This place seems to be old, but they have the best hot springs. Rooms are large so are all the corridors. Perfect quiet place to spend 2-3 days of relaxing getaway.
