It's safe to say it was one of the best meals I've ever had.” view full review

“The onsen was a highlight of my stay. It was clean and well maintained, providing a peaceful retreat after busy days of sightseeing. There was hardly anyone else using it, allowing for a truly private experience. I was even able to relax in the onsen without concerns about my tattoos, as it was a cute environment for guests with body art.” view full review
