Acceptable Hotel Experience

convenient location twin beds easy access missing medicine greasy remote limited amenities
The location was quite convenient. I had easy access to the sites I wanted to visit. Several restaurants were located nearby. The room was big enough for two twin beds.
The room cleaners disposed of my medicine. It was on the shelf (not marked for disposal). I received only a verbal apology in the end. The TV remote felt greasy and oily.

Really good Hotel Experience!

spacious room daily cleaning relaxing garden well kept onsen
The room was quite spacious and meticulously cleaned daily. Fresh towels and hotel pajamas were provided each day. The lobby features a very beautiful and relaxing garden. I found the onsen to be well maintained and relaxing, offering soap, shampoo, conditioner, face wash, cleanser, and a hair dryer.
I noticed the absence of body lotion. when I purchased a breakfast ticket, availability was not checked, and most trays were empty upon arrival. There was only an apology, not a refund.
Service

The staff members were very polite and helpful. They were responsive to requests. The front desk provided assistance with luggage storage both before check-in and after check-out. Their attention to detail really added value to my stay here.
