Japanese Authenticity Evaluation
5.0/10 Faithful to a certain Japanese charm, this establishment combines traditional and modern rooms. The onsen remains pleasant though without notable specifics. The colorful meals offer variety but lack the finesse of a Kaiseki. Overall, it is comfortable, although traditional authenticity is not fully respected.
