    Traditional and good experience overall. The onsen experience is interesting, but they are small (according to the hotel size). Rooms are ok, we stayed for 3 nights and it was enjoyable. Recommend minshuku if you are looking for a Japanese...

    Good location close to railway station. Lots of small restaurants close by. Within walking distance of the main sights. Nice onsen. Fairly basic hotel but excellent for the price
