Assabu Vacations from $1,318

The hotel's check-in system needed an upgrade, and the afternoon check-in wait was excessively long. We booked a room for four people and were told that we needed to lay out the tatami mats ourselves, which was a bit inconvenient for foreigners, as all the other hotels on this trip had laid out extra tatami mats for us before check-in. Another major problem was the strong odor in the toilet; I had to borrow air freshener from the front desk. However, the hotel breakfast deserves praise; it had a wide variety of choices and tasted delicious.

Plenty of food options but some are located far from hotel Traditional Japanese bed mattress is on thin side compared to other hotels we’ve stayed in

We really enjoyed our stay at the Hotel, the private onsen and public onsen both have exceptional view. The facilitate was very clean. The buffet style breakfast was an excellent way to try out the local produce and offer many different variety. We would have given five out of five, except we were incorrectly been told to go to La Vista Bay Hotel (main one). Hence our checking experience was not that great.
