Hotel style onsen resort. Public hot spring pool is good, and in-room onsen bath with open view. Location next to the main road and you can find convenience store and restaurant nearby. This hotel will be in my re-visit list.

Amazing location, lovely staff, lovely rooms. The traditional spa is a great experience and the breakfast is to die for (especially the Japanese options) Truly 10/10. Also, Not sure why the hotel is shown as rated at 3.5 stars as it feels like a 4 to 5 star hotel with all the amenities and quality.
