琵琶湖に面していて素晴らしいと思いました。ロビーからレストランや部屋の様子などもとても洗練されていて良かったです。温泉の大浴場もあって、ゆっくりくつろげました。

It was a nice room with a view of Lake Biwa, but when we went to the large public bath, we didn't have a card key for each family member, so the last family member to go out couldn't get on the elevator, which was inconvenient. I agree with the SDGs when it comes to amenities, but there were no amenities that you could freely take to the front desk, and there was no bag in the room to use for the bath, so it was disappointing and not exactly comfortable. The bed was hard and the pillow was too high, which caused a neck pain.
