Advantages: Clean, the hotel is divided into the main building and the new building. The new building is very new and fully equipped. You can have barbecue for breakfast. The grilled squid is delicious. Dinner on the first day was Omi beef hot pot, and on the second day it was Omi beef barbecue. The hot pot set was more delicious. The location is very good, facing Lake Biwa in the first row. Hanakado and Yumotokan are behind the Green Water Pavilion across the road, and the view of Yumotokan is blocked by the Green Water Pavilion. There is a laundry room on the right hand side of the hotel. Another post said there is also a laundry room on the left hand side. There is a convenience store diagonally opposite. The best thing in the hotel is crab rice! It's really delicious! The restaurant and front desk staff are very enthusiastic. It takes less than 400 yuan to take a taxi to Biwa Lake Valley. Disadvantages: The hot spring is a bit small. Since it is a hot spring hotel, it is a pity that it does not spend more effort on the hot spring. But every time I go there, it is reserved, and it feels quite private. I don’t know if it’s because there are few people. I found that the hotel is particularly stingy in heating. The main building is very warm. But it’s very cold at the junction of the two buildings. Do you have to walk outdoors on the way to the hot spring? ? Wearing a yukata will make you catch a cold. The changing area in the hot spring is very cold, and the bathing area is even colder, and it is cold for both men and women! In order to save water costs, the bathing area uses a press to release water. Most hot spring hotels in Japan use a press to release water, which is fine, but this hotel has a very short water release time! Very short! You have to press it several times to wash your hair, and the faucet is placed very low! It causes you to bend down very low when sitting. You can only use your hands to pick up the shower to wash, otherwise the position is too low, but the other hand has to keep pressing the water, resulting in no hands to take a bath, and taking a bath is in a hurry! It's also very, very cold! Everyone takes a hot spring bath to keep warm, but everyone is cold after taking a bath. Be careful when choosing this hotel with children and the elderly or those who are afraid of cold. But if you are afraid of heat, this hotel is highly recommended. The new building has been newly renovated, and there is a smell of decoration in the room. I am a very sensitive person. It is recommended that people with respiratory sensitivity like me wait 1 or 2 years for the smell to dissipate before coming back.
