Beautiful ryokan recently remodeled. Wonderful staff. Delicious food. A bit off the beaten path but being out of the main city offers a very relaxing environment. If you have the Go app and don’t mind paying for taxis, then the location is not an issue. Very pleasant experience overall.

We LOVED this place! We got the room with a private bathroom and garden. The garden was beautiful and our room was very large and spacious. The food they served in the restaurant was delicious and very well priced. Very nice staff. The place is located a bit away from the city, which is just what we wanted. It is located a very short 3 min walk from the bus stop. Very easily accessible. They will ship your luggage for you through a company if you ask (I recommend cuz it’s not fun taking luggage in a bus). Overall loved this place and would come back again.

The Ryokan is good. Our room was smaller than expected. I guess that is the case with most places to stay in Japan. There was certainly some smoke smell near our rooms on the days we stayed here. I wonder if the people next door were smoking or maybe the ones before that. It was like the smell was infused in the walls and when we opened our room door, the smell was stronger.

I look forward to staying here again in the future. The facility was well kept and the staff was friendly and helpful. It's a bit of a walk away from the main town but that makes it extra quiet and I felt safe.

The service was very personal and the food was good with variety and affordability. The place was clean with a beautiful garden in the middle of the restaurant portion. The bedrooms had more room than expected. My only negative comment would be regarding the sleeping situation. If you are not prepared for a small firm futton mattress with a small pillow you may want to pay for one of the more luxurious rooms. Also the location is a little outside of town so you will need to either walk a little ways or take one of the many busses in the area. Very peaceful.

The property was very far from a station and it was quite inconvenient to hall luggage up a hill on very small sidewalks for half an hour. That being said, the property and the surrounding area were beautiful and the nearest convenience store was a 10min walk which wasn’t too bad and was a nice walk when the weather was good. The staff were very nice and accommodating. The most disappointing thing was that when we arrived we found out access to the garden was not included in with the room that we booked, and the windows faced the street, the only place we could see it was from two small windows in the hallway. The entire floor had two share two toilets and 1 very small shower. There was no soap in the bathrooms and no conditioner in the shower. The rooms were not in very good shape, pieces were peeling off the walls, there were bugs in the room. However, the AC was very good. Everything was very expensive, both the room and food, especially considering we did not get access to the garden, a bathtub, or even hand soap. It just felt as though the prices were very high and the quality was very low, but staff was nice.

Too far to take heavy luggage. There is about a 30 minute walk from the nearest station. If you have a lot of luggage it is difficult to get on a bus to there. If you get a room with a “shared bath” you get two toilets and ONE shower between SIX rooms for 2 people each. One shower wasn’t even enough when four of us in the rooms wanted to use it. That was the biggest downside. You also do not get any direct access to the garden or restaurant if you get a “shared bath” room. We weren’t able to step foot in the garden. We could only see it from two small windows in the communal area of our rooms. The restaurant prices are also pretty expensive. The garden was beautiful though and the staff were nice. I think it may be worth it if you get a room with a bathroom, but the cheapest is completely not worth it in my opinion. We stayed at a Ryokan half the price in Nara and we had a toilet in our room and the “Shared bath” area was at least an onsen set up shared bath. It’s still an acceptable place to stay, but keep in mind the hike up there and excluding the “shared bath” rooms all together.
