"This is a very local non touristy village. We enjoyed the hospitality (even if we couldn’t communicate)
The owner helped accomadate my sea food allergy. We really liked the hot bath available in the beautiful water. The only thing I would say is that it isn’t close to anything and you have to walk about 22 minutes to the train "
"The rooms were tiny. My wife and I had to coordinate to open our suitcases. There was basically just a bed and a tiny amount of space around it. It certainly didn’t feel like 140 square feet.
On the positive side, the breakfast buffet was very nice."
"Needed to stay here because of work. Even with the air-conditioning set to 19 for the entire night, the lowest the room temperature got was 27. It was difficult to sleep and the hotel staff were quite rude. I don't recommend going here unless you absolutely have to"
"Simple basic room that matches the price you are quoted.
Relatively/Overall clean though the floor has some stickiness.
Things in the room works as expected."
"Staff don’t speak English bathroom only on the first floor we were staying at the 4th and no dinner and no breakfast available. Good for a step only one night before Kyoto. "

"Had a fab experience at this hotel. It was very traditional (which is the reason we booked it). Loved experiencing the onsen. Lots of free extras including ramen and ice creams. Would definitely recommend to friends and family!"
"The food choices were fantastic, and the bed was so comfortable that we felt completely relaxed. We truly enjoyed everything and look forward to returning again.”"
"Excellent, easy-to-get to hotel with wonderful lake view; very good place to stay and access Kyoto/Uji etc.
The only slight criticism would be the swimming pool - access earlier in the day (from 7:00 am ? and maybe keeping it open later than 17:00) would be highly desirable !!"
"Probobly the best hotel I’ve ever stayed at. Area is incredibly beautiful as well. Make sure to have lunch at the information center next to the train station. "
