Japanese Authenticity Rating
5/10 This ryokan offers a blend of authenticity and simplicity. The rooms with tatami mats recall traditional Japanese aesthetics, but some spaces lack refinement. The culinary experience seems modest, and the bathing facilities are basic. However, it benefits from pleasant natural views and a relaxing ambiance.
