My biggest concern was sleeping on a futon but it turned out to be so comfortable! The house is beautiful and the owner is extremly kind. I would suggest booking the hotel in summer, the bathrooms and showers are not isolated so it is very very cold there in winter. The area is better for families or more luxurious travelers but you can still get to the city center by bus quickly. 7 eleven, family mart and bus stop are very close

After I came back, I was busy with the company and forgot to comment. This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. Don't come. I booked it for 1400 per night on Saturday and Sunday. I live in Japan and have stayed in hotels of all sizes. This price is not expensive but not cheap either. 1 The room is dirty and messy, with scratches everywhere 2 For this price, you share the toilet and sink with others. There is not even a bottle of water in the room, not even a kettle! I was so thirsty at night that I couldn't stand it and went to the lobby to get a kettle to boil water myself. The next day, the lady boss said to me very unhappy, please send it back for other guests to use. May I ask what service you provided? 3 For the so-called courtyard-style hotel, you can refer to the chicken coop in the rural hometown of China. 4. After staying for two days, they didn't ask us whether we wanted to clean, change the sheets or change the toiletries. We couldn't find anyone at the front desk. We used one towel for two days. We bought toothpaste and toothbrush by ourselves. 5. I met the landlord once after check-in. She was an old lady from Taiwan. In less than 6 hours, she called me more than a dozen times when I went out for dinner. I thought she was in a hurry at work and didn't feel like eating, so I called back quickly. The other party asked if we wanted to drink together. You think she is enthusiastic, right? But when you put forward your most basic needs as a guest, you will definitely be ignored. Think about the hypocritical landlord. In short, it was the most disgusting stay. Because I wanted to make a video and post it on other social platforms to avoid thunder, I didn't take pictures. These are the pictures I took from the video. They may not be clear, but it is really dirty and messy! The landlord is a ********* auntie. I don't want to embarrass an elderly person, but the more I think about your behavior during your stay, the angrier I get. I'm so sorry. Finally, landlord, please don't call me to ask me to delete the comment. I will call the police immediately if I get a call.

Positiv -schöner Innengarten -perfekte Lage, fussläufig sehr viele Sehenswürdigkeiten zu besichtigen -Heizgerät funktioniert super, sodass man es schön warm (oder kalt) machen kann im Zimmer -gemütliches Bett und gemütliche saubere Bettwäsche Negativ -hellhörig (wahrscheinlich normal für ein ryokan) -durch die dünnen Wände kam viel kalter Wind -nicht die neuste Ausstattung, alles eher abgenutzt und in die Jahre gekommen, teilweise kaputt -morgens recht früh Laute Menschen, sodass man nicht gut lange schlafen kann -Zimmer war durch die Schiebefenster mit Glas sehr hell, weil Licht im Hof brennt auch die ganze Nacht -nicht sauber, auch die sanitären Anlagen nicht -kaum Privatsphäre -sehr alte abgenutzte Handtücher
