AI Summary
The accommodation impresses with a delicious Japanese breakfast, attentive staff, and convenient location near tourist attractions. However, some guests find it overpriced for its value.

I stayed in room 401. The bathtub was perfect. There was also a separate meditation hut. I just couldn't get used to the dinner. The sashimi and half-cooked beef were not suitable for Chinese people.

A big big cockroach was dead next to me when I wake up in morning

It is relatively close to the park and one kilometer from the nearest JR station. The price is a bit expensive. I had three breakfasts. The breakfast on the last day was relatively high. The other two days were average. The futon mattress was very hard and my back hurt after sleeping. In short, the price/performance ratio was low. , I won’t choose it again next time.

The hotel photos booked on Ctrip did not match the actual room I stayed in... After asking the hotel, I was told that they did not have traditional rooms, only general rooms and every other room with a name... but there was no mark on the Ctrip website... and the pictures did not match the actual rooms. ...After checking into the hotel, I was told that the room I booked was too small and I needed to upgrade the room, and my child would also need to pay the price difference...The price difference was about RMB 500+...After negotiating with Ctrip, they subsidized 200+ as compensation...In addition, the hotel's hot spring is not a quasi-hot spring...and at 8pm at night It was already booked by 10:30... We arrived at the hotel around 7 o'clock... which means we can't enjoy the hotel hot springs during normal hours... People in Nara basically don't have restaurants open around 7 o'clock... The same goes for hotels... We were told that we could not dine without a reservation... We searched outside for an hour before we found a skewers restaurant... We got back to the hotel around 10 o'clock... My husband and his son went for a dip and said that the pool was very small... The sound of the air conditioner was very fragrant when I slept at night... Like a tractor... the overall experience is very bad...

The Japanese-style tatami room is quite decent, with just enough space for three people. It has all kinds of supplies, but the room does not provide free drinking water. The tea you drink from the tap water has a smell. Dinner and breakfast are provided, and they are all placed on the table when people arrive. The sashimi is already a little dry, and other dishes are relatively ordinary. It is less interesting than the meals at other hot spring hotels I have stayed in before. The ladies' hot spring is a small pool, a bathtub and sauna that resemble Buddha's feet. There are no highlights. The waiters are not particularly enthusiastic. They stare at the guests and say they can't touch this or that. There is a free drink machine at the entrance of the hot spring. When I wanted to drink in the morning, I found that It was closed after work. The only bright spot was a waitress who came to help. She was gentle and beautiful. The hotel terrace has a good view and the price/performance ratio is average.

Not at the best location, however probably the greatest experience with the hotel. Though I stayed for one night only, but I enjoyed every moment in the hotel from the lobby, room and even the hot bath. From the attached photos, you can probably feel how beautiful this hotel is.
