I found the onsen access and the well maintained rooms very appealing. The beds were spacious and comfortable. The in-room coffee pods were an interesting touch I definitely enjoyed. The convenience store located below the hotel added to the convenience.
The hotel does not offer a laundry service, so I used a washing machine on site.
