部屋がきれいで、清潔感がある。
食事はビュッフェスタイルだったが、地元食材や旬の物が使われており、メニューに満足できた。子供向けの無料イベントなどが企画されていることも良い点の一つ。

What could be improved: 温泉の大浴場は塩素による消毒が行われており、循環させていることが明記してあったが、足し湯が時折止まるせいか、遅い時間帯に入った時に汚れのようなものが湯船に浮いていた。朝は何も浮いてなくてきれいだったのですが…。

Kazunori from Japan (27 July 2024)

8/10

お風呂とお食事は満足のいくものでした。また部屋からの景色が良かった。

What could be improved: 朝食のバイキングで、客の誘導を整理してくれたり、フロアに目が行き届く人がいた方が良かった。無くなった物がすぐに補充できなかったり、客で不作法な人がいたり、余計に人の流れが滞っていた印象があります。

Yoshikatsu from Japan (2 October 2024)

静かで、安心して泊まれた。

What could be improved: 食事がもう少し良かったらと思う。

What could be improved: 3人で3階の1部屋に泊ったので部屋外のトイレがあった方が安心できる。
