The hotel offers stunning mountain views and a high ceiling in the rooms. The hot shower is a great addition, but there could be more amenities available for pets. The location is very convenient with easy access to transportation, yet the dining experience lacks variety in Japanese homestyle dishes. The facilities are commendable, making it a comfortable stay with good value for the money.
