Lovely stay at Ayunosato

Beautiful view of the Kumagawa river from the lobby. You can even see it while taking the elevator! Great service (they provide transfers from Hitoyoshi station to the ryokan and back) and hospitable staff. Tourist spots like Aoi Aso Shrine and Hitoyoshi Castle Ruins and Museum are within walking distance. Will love to stay here again when I come back to Hitoyoshi.

The front staff was not all that welcoming. Not friendly for the rather high end hotel. The shower head was broken,whichnI reported to the front.
