Evaluation of Japanese Authenticity
4.5/10 The decor combines a few Japanese elements (tatamis) with basic modern details. The baths respect a certain tradition without luxury, and the rooms are decent but not very immersive. The typical spirit is present but moderate, offering an experience that lacks refinement for a true authentic ryokan.
