Very nice Ryokan Experience!

friendly staffjapanese breakfastcomfortable sleepwear
I loved that staff welcomed me so warmly! Each morning, I enjoyed the traditional Japanese breakfast. Every night, the happy hour was a lovely touch. The fresh flowers daily and cozy sleepwear added to the hotel's charm!
The location is somewhat far from main attractions. I had to take the bus or taxi for transport.

Customer service was very nice. The staff was so helpful and provided great recommendations. I was greeted with a smile every time I entered the building and they all spoke good English.

The ryokan had easy access to transportation. It was super close to a bus stop, I discovered. A short walk from a JR train station makes this location great for travelers. You could quickly get around the city.
Rooms

The room included comfortable futons. I did have to add one extra futon, though. There was traditional seating for eating as well as a table and chairs. The ryokan provided foot ware for the lobby.
