Japanese Authenticity Evaluation
3/10 Dominated by a modern ambiance with subtle Japanese touches, this establishment offers few noteworthy elements in terms of authenticity. The rooms and meals show a Western blend, and the absence of natural baths reduces immersion. A pleasant location partially compensates for this lack of traditional identity.
