Evaluation of Japanese Authenticity
3.0/10 Some traditional elements, like tatami, are present, but the overall architecture and decoration lack authenticity. The visible absence of an onsen and an unmentioned culinary offer limit the immersive experience. The ambiance remains very modern and functional, far from the spirit of a traditional Japanese ryokan.
