お風呂のお湯は良かったですが、お風呂の窓や露天風呂の屋根等の手入れが行き届いて無いように感じた。食事は味付けも美味しかったですが、バイキングの内容が前日と同じだったので連泊で2日間同じ内容だったのが残念でした。 気になるところは少しありましたが、スタッフの方の対応も良く全体的には良いホテルだと思います。 ロビーのコーヒーサービスや、夜にアルコールドリンクサービス等嬉しいサービスも有り！

夕飯のビュッフェは色々食べれて、ビールも飲めるのでとても良かったです。 ただ、どんどこ湯の終了時間が早いので、初日はいけなかったのが残念でした。 ホテル内にある大浴場もどんどこ湯も良かったのですが、ホテル内の大浴場側のシャワーの位置がうまくいかず、かつ寒かったので湯船に浸かるまでがゆっくりできなかったです。 ただお風呂は内湯、露天もあってとても良かったです。 部屋は仕方ないですが、やはりやや古かったです。 スタッフの方は親切でした。

시설은 오래되고 온천도 특별하지 않았습니다. 냉장고와 에어컨 작동 소음이 너무커서 잠을 자는데 방해가 됩니다. 직원들은 친절하고 조식이 양호합니다.
