On the plus side, the dining area and Japanese-style TV lounge are fine. You can even bring in your own food and drink if you wish. The owner and his family are very hospitable and could not be nicer. The bedrooms,however, are basic in the extreme and would benefit from an upgrade and some sound insulation. Finally the hotel is quite a long way out of town but to be fair, they are always pleased to give guests a lift to and from town.
