Medium standard
Room is quite clean but it has some adour. The room is also old. The food is quite poor quality. The only thing that I am feel good is open air public bath. The view and decoration is fantastic.

Nice traditional ryoukan with excellent included m
Good traditional ryoukan type of setting. The included dinner and breakfast buffets were great and with good variety. Our room was very spacious for 4 of us. The outside hot tub was great. It's too bad that the hiking trails were covered by heavy snow and we weren't able to walk outside but, of course, the hotel has nothing to do with it.
