authentic ryokan experience
quality foodonsen facilitiesuncomfortable futons
I loved the location. It was close to the shrine, the shopping street, and daisho temple. top-quality food was served (i especially enjoyed the kaiseki dinner!). the onsen facilities offered a good experience.
the futons were not very comfortable for sleeping. they could use an upgrade to improve sleep quality. i think the hotel should address this for better guest comfort.
