"This was a nice little hotel. We were the only non-Asians and I think non-Japanese there. It is a Japanese style hotel. So you’re sleeping on futons on the floor. And the room is to Tommy mats. We had a room with our own outdoor bath, which is nice. The place was clean. The staff were very attentive. The service was excellent. They had a buffet breakfast the first couple days which was OK. Mainly Japanese food. But it was good. Not great. We had a set Japanese breakfast our last two days which was interesting. Very different for Western but very tasty. Great service. Really nice presentation.The onsen was outstanding. They have two one is open 24 hours per day. The other is from 3 PM until 11:30 PM. They provide Japanese robes in your room. Of course the folks use these to walk on down to the onsen and we saw a variety of guests eating breakfast in their robes..They have a nice shop in the hotel for drinks and snacks and gifts. Because it was so empty they did not have a lot of services open. There was no bar or restaurant available. We did have a car so we drove into town to eat and shop. Overall was a very nice place. I liked it. It is a little bit old and dated, but for the true Japanese experience, I think it was great. I would stay there again."

"Vessel Inns really growing on me. Rooms are usually bigger than most standard Japanese biz hotels with free 'proper' coffee in the lobby an added bonus. Breakfast at the downstairs bakery also good."

"Fun rooms, great waters & delicious food "

"Bedroom and washroom were spacious, clean and looked new. Amenities were great. The hotel has a wide range of facilities, including a planetarium, which we really enjoyed. We had a great time. "

"Friendly and helpful staff. Very clean and good location near a wide selection of restaurants. Close to train station but we did not have any noise problems at all. Very comfortable. Breakfast was a good price and had ample choice. "

"Consistent with what I’ve come to expect from this reliable chain. A simple Japanese business hotel — compact rooms, clean, and efficiently run with friendly service. Laundry facilities were handy and worked well. The town itself is small and quiet, but I had no trouble finding a decent place for dinner on a Sunday night just a short walk away. Breakfast was limited but perfectly fine for what it is. A solid, dependable stay."

"It was comfortable for a solo trip and I slept well for a hotel. I got lucky getting a corner room since you can hear people through the walls when walking down the hall. What bothered me the most was the bath towel having brown stains."

"Close proximity to the train station was a key feature in choosing this hotel. We stayed on the side opposite the tracks and didn't hear any train noise. Rooms are small and minimalist but clean, staff were friendly, breakfast was really quite good. "

"Fantastic meals, excellent onsen, beautiful view and amazing staff."
