Stayed in a separate room with children. The room was a little old but clean and comfortable. We didn't have to worry about the noise from the children because it was a separate room. There was a private hot spring bath, which was very nice. The food was very tasty and there was more than we could eat. The staff were all very kind, friendly to the children, and the service was excellent. All in all, the hot spring resort exceeded my expectations and I would like to return. Thank you very much.

The place offers 3 separate tiny private onsen without bookings, usually vacant during my stay may be coz of summer time. A supermarket closed at 7pm nearby, also close to the lake. Overall such standard with this price level (about $6xx) on Fri night is satisfactory

We lived in the private onsen villa. The hot spring water is hot and very comfortable. The room was old but well kept and tidy. The shower is outside and we got some mosquito bites while showering during the day. There was spider inside the room that spun a web. Breakfast the next day was a simple fare. The location was near the main street, and 8 minutes walk away from the train station. Overall the experience was good!
