"This was my family’s first Japanese osen and I hope it will not be the last. The property was very clean and charming. The shuttle to and from the train station was convenient but didn’t start until 9 am and ended before 6 pm. However, the taxi fare was ok and we only needed to use it once during our two night stay to get back from sightseeing in Kyoto,’. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious and, I think, very traditional Japanese food. The hot springs were at the perfect temperature. Our futon beds were comfortable. Overall, our stay was immensely relaxing. If you are looking for a very traditional, serene Japanese experience,, at least from the perspective of an American, I believe you will find it here."
