전통적인 료칸들이 전통만있고 알멩이 없는 경우들을 많이 보았는데, 여기는 전통도 내실도 꽉잡은 료칸 이였어요. 소 온천들을 고르는 재미부터, 다양한 컨셉의 온천들, 전통 고옥의 느낌, 식사의 질, 직원들 친절도 등등... 특히 저는 가이세키가 굉장히 맛있다는 느낌은 잘 못 받았었는데 여기 저녁 식사 아주 맛있게 먹었습니다! 가족들과 또 오고싶다는 느낌을 주는 료칸이였어요! 강추.

오래된 훌륭한 료칸

음식도 훌륭하고 룸 컨디션도 좋았어요 다만 창호가 너무 낡아서 찬바람을 맞기가 힘들고 바닥에 난방이 되지 않다 보니 공기만 난방이 되어서 매우 건조하고 발이 시려웠어요. 하지만 전통이 있는 료칸답게 러시아는 체인지 가이세키 정신과 조식이 아주 훌륭했고 분위기도 좋았어요. 분위기와 서비스는 살려두되 시설은 조금 보완해야 할 것 같아요
