Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The bathroom had a pretty funky smell that never went away, and it seemed that their answer was to put a tiny bag of potpourri next to the toilet, but it could have used a more thorough cleaning. Otherwise, a very nice and helpful staff, great free shuttle for local hikes, and decent breakfast and dinner. Quiet and lovely spot by the river where many people were enjoying the water.

Wonderful Traditional Japanese stay
This is a great traditional Japanese place to stay and located 15 min by shuttle or bus from Hongu shrine and world heritage center. It’s on the river and the staff is friendly, onsen inside and outside (during season) and access to hot springs river out the door. It’s traditional futon sleeping with in room Japanese bath. Plenty of space and welcoming service. All meals are scheduled if you are going to eat at the Inn. Food is wonderful and classic Japanese only.

fantastic
Room was very comfortable and stylish. River Onsen was busy, but fun. They allowed tattoo's both inside and outside onsen. Service was amazing. Dinner service could have had some explanation of the food offered or a menu.

Front desk hospitaity was excellent but dining service was horrible. The service lady mistakenly received wrong service time order from front desk and repelled us from entering the dining hall. And when we ordered drinks and due to langauge barrier, she dropped the pen very rudely for us to fill in. Never experienced such hospitality in japan ever.
