The photos of The breakfast aren't accurate, The breakfast is fine, but didn't see a single egg or a piece of fruit there in whole week. The diningroom walls were really dirty and in our room there was hairs that didn't belong to us. Staff were helpful and nice, though they didn't speak english, but still tried to help as best they could. Onsen was alright

アパートタイプですが、コスパは最高だと思います。客室多いですが、駐車場は少なめで、2000円近い駐車料金は高め。ですが、大浴場に低温サウナは素敵だと思います。 隣のドアとすぐ隣の客室だったので、お隣さんのドアの音はとても聞こえますが、話し声、上下階の音は気になりませんでした。 食事は味、品質は求めてはいけないと思います。しかし、コスパは最高です！ 同じビル隣にコンビニあるのもとても良いですね。
