This time, we changed our Plan and tried the shabu-shabu Plan for the first time. It was simply amazing (lol).The vegetables were delicious, and the meat was incredibly tender. We were also surprised by the dipping sauce.My husband usually doesn’t eat it with sesame sauce, but this was the first time I’ve seen him say it was so good and actually enjoy it. It’s truly mellow—irresistible for sesame-sauce lovers. The thin udon at the end also had an excellent texture going down.We were completely full.Thank you for all your thoughtful care. We’d love to visit again.

Although it’s a bit far from the station, the free taxi Shuttle Service was very helpful, and even with heavy luggage we had no trouble at all. Located along the Matsukawa promenade, it’s in a great spot with a lovely view from the window (including a charming kindergarten), and it’s also convenient for exploring the town on foot. The Room felt spacious even with three beds, and the Onsen had a pleasantly silky feel at a comfortable temperature. We chose the “Simple” sashimi set meal Plan, and for an elderly woman the portion size was just right, so we were able to relax and enjoy our stay. If I had to mention one thing, we deducted one star because the private open-air bath (Reservation required) felt too small for three people, yet our time slot was only 30 minutes, making it difficult to take turns. It would have been appreciated if we could reserve enough time for our group (or book two slots), or if we had been informed in advance that it may feel cramped for three guests.
