Yudanaka Shibu Onsenkyo Seseragi no Yado Hotel Hoshikawakan

For an affordable Hotel like this, the buffet was very satisfying. The bath was also great. The private family bath is free, though it can only be used once for 30 minutes, and the Room was spacious—overall, the value for money is outstanding. The toilet is basic, so I’d like to see it renovated. In terms of value for money, I have no complaints—5/5 overall.

Both dinner and breakfast were extremely satisfying. The all-you-can-eat crab and hot pot at dinner were especially delicious. There were plenty of other dishes too—so many that we didn’t even need them. Truly very, very satisfied. The cucumber with moromi miso (maybe with ginger?) was so tasty it could be a snack to go with drinks on its own. Karaoke is available for one hour, and table tennis can be used as much as you like if no one else is waiting. The private bath was very spacious; 30 minutes felt a bit rushed, but it’s free, so it’s a great service. Excellent value for money. It was also nice that they offered several types of shampoo to borrow in addition to the provided one. The only disappointment was the large public bath: there are steps only in part of the tub area, so I couldn’t do a half-body soak and wasn’t able to relax as much as I wanted.
