A very relaxing stay

A perfect stay! A typical Japanese room with futon, super nice experience at the bath, nice breakfast and very friendly people at the reception. There is also shuttle bus service to and from Kakunodate. Need to be reserved in advance. Maybe a good idea from Kakunodate becuase there are not so many trains to

Quiet area and the hotel is a bit off the town center. There's a shuttle service to the train station. The hotel provides free bike rental and I would recommend using the bike to explore the surrounding area. Staff is friendly, the room is spacious and clean. Overall, a very pleasant stay.

Perhaps not a preferred choice for foreign tourist

Nice Japanese Ryokan with Onsen in the hotel. Hotel staff are nice, but speak very poor Enligh. It is a bit far from the JR station, but hotel has free shuttle bus upon reservation in advance. Breakfast is OK, but not impressive
