万座温泉 日進舘 Staying in Manza onsen for two nights, and found out rather quiet during the day. We tried to make a trip to other onsen hotels, but taxis or public buses were unavailable, and walking was not an option because of the snow and icy roads. We were stuck in the hotel, with nowhere to go, and surprisingly, the reception staff were unwilling to help. It was a rather disappointing experience for us. Luckily, we met Mr. Honda outside the hotel, unsure of his position with this hotel, and he offered to drive us to the Manza Kogen Hotel. We were so grateful. However, upon arrival, we discovered the Hotel was closed for the day. Mr Honda later suggested Juraku hotel also in the neighbourhood. We were very thankful for the recommendation and had an enjoyable onsen moment in Juraku. Mr Honda later even returned to pick us up. Thank you very much! Your kindness and generosity are much appreciated.
