Japanese Authenticity Rating
7/10 Resembling a classic ryokan, this place offers harmonious rooms with tatami and shōji. The meals provide careful traditional cuisine, though modest. However, the absence of an onsen limits total immersion, and the exterior architecture includes some modern elements. The whole remains welcoming and warm.
