What a delightful day (and night) at the hotel. A charming and very friendly staff greeted us, cleaned our luggage (because we’d been rolling around) and brought everything to our room while we were checking in. A lovely onsen and very large room kept us smiling during our entire stay. I’ll be back!

Charming Ryokan!
A beautiful, home-like ryokan that's a bit quirky but still traditional. The family who runs it is delightful and helpful. Very conveniently located -- about a 10-minute walk from the old town. You can't go wrong staying here!
