Comfortable and pleasant stay
I love cold weather and snow, so that part of Northern Honshu was perfect for me. I also have family in the area to drive me to Zao, which is a lot easier than taking the bus! This hotel is clearly on the older side, but that really didn't detract from the whole experience, which was positive. The bath was relaxing and though it wasn't large, I never felt over crowded. The beds were comfortable~ sort of an amalgam of futon and boxspring. Though I wish they were on the tatami, it was nice that they were by the windows. I am pretty sure I've been in those particular onsen baths before, so I am wondering if this hotel has existed in the past under different ownership with a different name.

お風呂最高でした！ ご飯も美味しかったです。 従業員の方はラテン系や中東系の方が多かったですが、皆さん日本語がとてもお上手で、すごく丁寧な方たちでした。 気になった点 ・チェックインの時に外湯巡りのチケットのことや、日本酒試飲チケットのことをもっとしっかりと告知してほしかったです。 ・ロビーに喫煙所があって、臭いが防ぎ切れてなくてホテルに入った瞬間にタバコ臭ってなったのであまり印象が良くないように思いました。 ・ご飯のお品書きがあるとより楽しめたかもしれません。 ・ウォーターサーバーを風呂場以外にも設置していただけるとなお良いと思いました。

アウトサイドバス＝風呂は最高でしたよ！
温泉は最高でした。屋根に当たる雨音で熟睡できず。 アウトサイドバス、クラブルーム、すべて紛らわしく 思っていたものとは違いました。 部屋内に風呂がないことをアウトサイドバスと言い、 クラブルームというのは和室の部屋にベッドがある部屋を言うそうです。 夕飯も鍋料理、手がかからないようにしてあります。
