The ryokan certainly has accumulated a fair bit of ages, however, it was relatively well
maintained. Onsen bath was great, it Moor Spring as they claimed has the highest level of mineral, great for skin. I love the dinner best, with international as well as Japanese styles cuisine. I managed to secure the a Japanese styles room with open air private bath. The summer has considerable humidity, and ryokan attempted to use dehumidifier to remove the humidity. Overall experience was good.
I’m planing to call Expedia for refund for this facility. Room had no ac control (it was the hottest day ever), room smells pee and no refund for breakfast nor change to dinner even they are same cost.
Need to improve food varieties in dinner & room too hot as air cond not functioning well . Extra bed has to be made by ourselves as no service provided. If buffet can be upgraded to omakase with pay will be better .

Disliked: Cleanliness
The hotel is very dated. The room was very unusual with the sink and toilet in the foyer of the room; very unusual. Our room had an outdoor onsen that was also very dated with the wood of the bath crumbling and wood rot. The dinner was not memorable with the beef and pork dishes tasteless. No one speaks English here so you bettee know some Japanese. Thw most notable thing about the room was the SMELLY TOILET. SMELLS LIKE SOMEONE URINATED ON THE FLOOR AND IT WAS NEBER CLEANED UP.
The staff at the counter don't seems to be able communicate effectively. We checked in quite late and we were told about dinner need reservation before specific time resulting we headed out nearby ramen shop but were not accepting anymore customer. We went back to our room and order for room service but was declined because the staff couldn't speak english. We snacked on our biscuit at the end as our dinner.
