    The Onsen was great, it had the traditional Ryokan mats and experience.

    Bus service to the train station, we had a lot of luggage.

    It's just as described - a small private room with shared toilets (close by in my case) and downstairs is the small onsen with showers. There was never anyone else there at the same time as me. The onsen (men and women separate) itself is small...
