Japanese Authenticity Rating
6/10 Overall charming, this ryokan blends modern and traditional elements. The rooms, equipped with tatamis and futons, offer a pleasant ambiance. The culinary experience is satisfying, though without great originality. Indoor baths are present but lack distinctive character. The exterior architecture is more functional than typically Japanese.
