Great views but depressing

There are onky 2 good things about this hotel, thr view, and that it's located opposite a good resort where we spent our time. The hotel felt vacant and while thr lobby was moderately impressive our room was dated with damaged fixures and had clearly been used by a smoker before us despite being assured it was non smoking. When we told the hotel staff they offered us a deoderizing spray and nothing more. The beds were hard and uncomfortable. We had a lovely balcony but no chairs to sit on. Asking abiut breakfast they told us that no spaces were available despite the hotel appearing absolutely vacant. Perhaps thr most insulting was asking to use the pool to be told it would cost approx 10 USD for an area that was substandard and no cover from thr sun. Ultimately very disappointing and not worthy of its rating

Wonderful hotel with great onsen n breakfast

Wonderful stay. It wasn’t crowded when we stayed so it was quiet and peaceful. Great service. The breakfast buffet has sufficient variety and were delicious. The onsen is big with 3-4 pools including one outdoors. The quad room with 2 beds and 2 futons was a comfortable size. U You get to choose your own Yukata and drinks from the lobby.
