Tradition with comfort

We got a tradition ryokan experience with the luxury of a hotel. The onsen was really nice, but I wish towels were provided there rather than having to remember to bring them from the room. There was a note telling us to do that, but we forgot. The area was very walkable for shopping and restaurants and very close to the train station.
