This spa hotel is pretty good. If you come by train, you can call the hotel to request a pick-up after you arrive at the station. The location is a little far from the station. The hotel is quite old, probably built in the 80s or 90s, and the facilities are well maintained. The room facilities are a bit old, and there is a lot of dust in some places, such as under the safe. The food is good, breakfast is buffet style. My hands and feet feel smooth after soaking in the hot spring.

Clerks are all very nice, and they have shuttle buses to the JR station. However, foreign tourists with tattoos should note that they cannot use public bathroom, but they will still be charged the service fee of it.
