We stayed at the hotel for two nights, the beds are comfortable, the breakfast is traditional and good, the hotel is obviously popular with tour groups and so it can be a bit crowded at breakfast and in the onsen area. Public transport is easily accessible and there is also a supermarket nearby.

This hotel hits the sweet spot for an eco-friendly travelers hotel. The room and bed were spacious but there was no wasted space. It’s located near a very convenient train station for getting around. The staff was friendly and helpful whenever I had any questions.
