8.4Verified guest“The Japanese room was spacious and the staff were friendly during my entire stay. I was glad to be able to leave my luggage before and after check-in. The location was convenient, with two supermarkets close by and the train station an easy walk away, which made it simple to reach the Sagano Scenic Railway. The public bath was a lovely extra, and I enjoyed trying a traditional Japanese bath.”
