The indoor onsen was relaxing, however the outside was filled with spiderwebs and bugs. The elevator doors close waay too early nearly crushing my Inlaws and daughter. The room was generally clean but my sheets seemed stained and dirty. The bathroom tub clogged within 2 baths rendering it useless. The breakfast was average and had variety. Two good things i will say is the staff was friendly and helpful and the onsen amenities were great and varied. Overall 5/10

The hotel was close to a shrine on a hill. There was a gateball course on the hill at the back of the property. The only drawback was that we did not have a car and had to rely on the hotel shuttle service to go to town and elsewhere. The hotel had a nice onsen and delicious breakfast which included Japanese and western foods.

Ideal Location and nice place, Monotonous Buffett
We picked Morinokaze which is ideal for visiting both Hachimantai and Nyutou Onsen area. Free and easy parking, Friendly reception, decent size twin share room, a little aged but clean and well maintained. Room toilet was small like common hot sprint hotels where most people would use the public bath facility which was nice, make sure to try both sides when they switch between the day. Our only let-down was having exactly the same dishes for its Buffett dinner over 2 nights while they do serve nice sushi and crabs. Last week was fairly crowded with tour groups during dinner time.

Very good and quiet place but a car is needed.
Have been using this hotel 2-3 times a year so the ratings are the same. Food is very good so as the hot springs. Unfortunately, we didn't get a room in the main building we enjoyed during the past 6 years. The front desk said they were full that night but the parking lot was much more than half empty and guests taking the hotel shuttle from the train station is apparently one digit a day.
