Laundry washing was free flow for an upfront cost. Room size was decent. Locality is good. Near to train station. Clean and bright. Private onsen & cheap laundry service. Good breakfast. Very helpful and friendly staff. Central location to food and shopping mall. We stayed in a nice ryokan for one night. Our room was big with tatami beds for 4. We paid 500 yen for private onsens and the morning Japanese breakfast was a wonderful experience. Excellent location, spacious rooms by Japan standards, basic amenities but sufficient. The price is very good, compared to the quality of facility, large room size and all the cleanliness despite the hotel is very old. Room is spacious and clean. Location is not too far from station and bus stop. If you'd like to stay in centrally located ryokan that is also not located in middle of nowhere, this could be for you!

hotel for sure needs renovation. The smell inside the room. The room is a bit small but expected from previous experiences with Japanese hotel rooms. The private hot spring was in another building, it was a old and cold room. Some room is old style toilet and the heater doesn’t work very well. Should have more breakfast available for purchase instead of only pre-booked. Room facilities were lacking. No kettle to boil water for tea, no hair dryer, beds were pretty hard but we found additional mattresses in the cupboard. The hotel is very old and the room pictures shown are not the room. Room smaller than shown in website. The place provided both public and private bath, I give this a plus. However, there is no hot water (can't even wash face) and no microwave in the room. The facilities are a bit outdated, but it actually brings some additional charm. Normal for Japan, the bathroom was a bit cramped and the room dated. However, you get what you paid for. I don't really understand whether we need to pay once during our stay for the laundry or every time we do laundry during our stay. Old facilities. Public bath was very small. Fitted only 4-5 people max. Not the cleanest bath and not well lit. We didn’t try the private bath but that might be cleaner and more spacious. I wish they renovate the bathtub, shower and buy new hairdryer. The hairdryer took me forever to dry my long hair, the bathtub is very old, and the water from shower is not that strong. With wooden floor, sound of kid running/jumping at night is louder than normal. The facility could really do with a major renovation. Few electric plug and no trash box in the toilet. There were mosquitoes in the room. The size of the towels, very small. the public bath space is a bit small than expected, only two hair dryers. No private bathroom inside the room (although rental private bath is available, but outside of the facility). WiFi could be a little more consistent and faster. Look a bit old, Futong is quite thin and dirty. The room was dusty and the interior was dated. Also the location was surrounded by a red light district. Entrance to our room had a very faint smell; not noticable in the main room however! Private toilet did not have a sink directly adjacent; you had to go to the main room with the beds to wash your hands. Already quite old, could need some refurbishment. The rooms are not very well equiped and old, for the price I paid I find it a little sad. I stayed in a room with a shared bathroom. The bath was just the communal onsen bath, which I knew in advance. It was fine, but if you're not ok bathing in front of others don't come here. However the toilet and the washroom area were surprising: to get to the toilet you need to go though a lounge and a restaurant - which is but ideal especially in the morning during breakfast hours. The washroom is just a sink in the common area, next to the restaurant. It feels like everyone is watching you while you brush your teeth or dry your hair. Very uncomfortable. Also, the restaurant is very close to the rooms. I was woken up by the noise of the staff setting up breakfast at 6:30. The onsen is very small, basically a bathtub. If you're after a nice onsen experience this is not the place.
