Simple Hotel with tremendous”

The hotel can be regarded as an old one, the furniture is aging, the decoration is outdated . What impressed us most is the view. The view is looking like a living painting. Sunlight, mist and clouds are dancing around mountains. The view is changing all the time from day to night. Sincere staffs are another element for me to choose the hotel once again when I come back to Yufin.

onsen is okay, only 1 indoor pool and 2 small outdoor pools, but the onsen is not crowded at all given the size of this hotel. as a hotel in the country side it was expected to have bugs around, but they got quite annoying at night when they get into your room and they are EVERYWHERE. spent a good 20 minutes before bedtime hunting down flies and other bugs on the tatami. overall experience is average.

Very nice room and dinner”

Hotel is rather aged but the location is great. We took a Japanese style room, it is of good size and very clean. We stayed for two nights and they gave us a private room for meals. The dinner is excellent but the breakfast could be bigger. The male indoor bath was so hot that nobody got in, everyone went to use the outdoor one. Having said that we still enjoy the bathing very much. They forgot to do our Japanese bedding on the second night so we got to move over the central table and did the bedding ourselves. The staffs were very polite and helpful, and many spoke good English, especially the overseas students working park time there.
