"Very comfortable hotel with helpful staff. Clean and welcoming"

"Hotel R9 is the best. Cheap, clean, comfortable~~ My husband and I went for a road trip and we stayed in many different R9 hotels. I love it"

"If you are staying more than 2 days get a rental car. The hotel is very good at what it does, which is provide a relaxing atmosphere with an accessible onsen. The restaurants there are not really restaurants. Breakfast is a buffet of plentiful food, mostly Japanese but I believe a pure westerner could survive. There is no lunch service. The dinner is a set menu of classical Japanese fare, which after the second day becomes a bit tiresome, but doable. They also offered a bonus meal at 9pm of noodles and such. There is a modest happy hour from about 3pm to 8:30 pm which provides a variety of booze and snacks. Staff speaks no English, so be prepared for that, but they are very friendly. My Japanese is passable so I was able to get assistance from the staff to get a rental car and reserve taxis, etc. There is no laundry service and if you have a tattoo you mus cover it while in the onsen. I checked at other hotels with onsens and most don't allow tattoos at all. The location is up on a little hill away from anything walking distance. There is no safe walking path of significant length around the hotel that is not on a narrow road, so don't count on any walks. There is a tennis court but other than that not any place to get cardio. But if you are coming here you are not coming for that. I am including in the description so the reader knows what is there. I would come again for sure. "

"Quiet excellent hotel to spend the weekend. Would definitely stop by again. Delicious breakfast in a quiet and nice garden."

"Excellent all round, staff were amazing! Great cheap parking. Very happy and highly recommend. Rooms are small but lovely and cosy! "

"The hotel’s facilities were great, and the breakfast was also very good. The staff were truly kind and helpful. I would love to come back again. One thing I don’t quite understand is that there was a strong smell of cigarette smoke in the hallway. The room itself was fine, and since the window could be opened, I was able to ventilate it and it was okay. I hope the hotel enforces stricter rules against guests who break the rules and smoke in their rooms. I really recommend this hotel and would love to stay here again. The price is very reasonable, and the quality of the facilities is excellent for the cost. On top of that, I was pleasantly surprised that they even had a public bath."
