部屋も掃除が行き届いていてキレイでした。一つ気になる点は、洗面所の水の勢いが強かったことくらいです。微調整すれば何とかなりますが、軽くひねっただけですごい水量なので、最初は驚きました(笑) 朝食時に一瞬厨房の扉が開いて中が見えたのですが、調理台の上も片付けられていて、調理台もピカピカで感動しました！ 部屋数も多くないホテルなので、お風呂も混雑することもなく、ロビーなども静かでゆったり過ごすことができました。 ありがとうございました。

고즈넉하고 한적한 분위기. 웰컴 드링크를 비롯한 정갈한 아침식사와 cozy한 노천 온천도 힐링하기에 정말 좋았음. 유카타도 무료로 대여해주고 다다미방으로 되어있어서 일본 료칸의 느낌늘 즐기기에도 충분했음

素泊り→朝食オプションで

ダイハツの保養所として運営されている施設ですが、一般客も利用できたので、お邪魔してきました。 おもてなしサービスという点ではあまり期待はできません。ビジネスホテルのようにお客は勝手に来てのんびり過ごすっていう感じです。ただし、ホテルのスタッフの皆さんはとても親切で、並のホテルよりも感じは良かったです。 最近改装されたようで、派手さはないものの、館内はエントランスから清潔で過ごしやすい空間になっていました。期間限定のウェルカムドリンクサービスがとてもありがたかったです。ぜひ、今後も続けてほしい。 お風呂は浴槽が2つとシンプルですが、金の湯、銀の湯の双方が楽しめ、露天が金、内湯が銀でした。泉質はよく、カルキ臭もないので、まったりとリラックスして癒されました。 レクリエーションとしてカラオケ、麻雀卓、卓球台、漫画(主にジャンプ系の有名どころが多い)、貸し出しのボードゲームなど。あとはマッサージチェアが無料で使える、プールがある、など。巣ごもりで過ごすのにちょうどよい施設だと感じました。 周辺に飲食店やコンビニは無く、繁華街まで歩ける距離ですが、傾斜のきつい坂があるので、小さい子供連れやお年寄りは厳しいですね。 チェックイン時に朝食を付けてもらったのですが、朝食ビュッフェの料金が子供も大人と同額だった点だけ、宿泊体験としては星マイナス２くらいのショックでしたが(朝食そのものも3000円弱払うほどの内容でもないので)、それ以外は総じて満足いくものでした。繁華街で美味しい朝食食べられる店が見つかったら、リピートするかな、と思います。もしくは、子供料金は半額にしてー…涙
