年末にスキー場に行く途中で利用しました。口コミから覚悟して行ったが全然良かった。接客も良かったし、部屋きれいだったし、温泉気持ち良かったし、飯は値段から考えるとタダで食べられる食事と考えれば全然普通。ちょっと部屋が乾燥してたくらいかな。これで年末価格で6000円台ならこの評価でしょ。

おおるりですが食事は懐石料理で量も多く味も美味しいです。朝は和食か洋食か選べます。お酒の飲み放題は付いていませんが料金は安いです。フリードリンクは付いていてコストパフォーマンスは良いと思います。今回は1泊しか出来なかったのですが今度は連泊したいと思っています。

観光していた場所からホテルまで距離がありました。そのため、夕食時間（17時〜）には間に合わないと思い、宿泊朝食のみ利用しました。チェックインが遅くなってしまったため、夜勤の警備のかた？がご案内してくれました。浴衣が何種類かあって嬉しかったです。お風呂は、自分のシャンプーリンス、ドライヤーを持っていくことをおすすめします。朝食はイマイチでしたが、卓球できたし、部屋もきれいだったし、何しろリーズナブル！！お会計して、納得の値段。フロントの方は年齢高め。アットホームな感じです。
