    Nope.

    Perfect location which only takes 1-2min to walk to train station. Quite a few restaurant selections around. The room itself is clean and comfortable. The bath in the hotel is amazing. Plus the staff are all friendly and hospitable even with language barrier. Highly recommend!

    My room is a bit old. It seems have not been renovated yet. The onsen is very small, only big enough for max 3 persons.

    location is very good, just next to the Iseshi train station. The Japanese breakfast is nice and tasty.

    My feet struggle with the necessary in-house slip-on footwear. But this isn’t the Inn’s fault.

    Delicious breakfast bought to our room — we had unwittingly booked the ground floor room suitable for disabled guests. This also meant we had an ensuite, a very nice extra in such an old historic accommodation. Best possible access to Iseshi station (JR and Kintetsu). Warm welcome from staff.

    Way over expectation. It is an old building, but the interior in my room looks pretty new. I guess I got the wheelchair accessible room which is huge. Every places is very clean, shared bathroom, shared toilet, etc. The shared bathroom is a bit small but it opens overnight. So, it is empty most of the time. The grandma who showed the room to me doesn’t speak English. But it was not a problem. There’s an English information explained everything.

    They should mention the bicycles in front, or something, to help you find the Ryokan. The lighting in the room could be better in the bedroom area - for reading. And a place for your luggage would help - since they don't want it on the bed tatami platform.

    The location was great for the train (JR) and renting a car ( Toyota at Ujiyamada. Station👍)! The proprietors were super helpful (using a translation app). There were several excellent restaurants nearby (Daiki and Katsura, especially!)

    The little fridge in the room was old and struggling to cool even at maximum cooling stance. It made a lot of noise so we turned it off.

    Cozy and characteristic Ryokan with dedicated, kind and friendly staff. Our Japanese is very poor, but staff were patient and used Google Translate when necessary. We felt very welcome and enjoyed our 2 nights in Ise. The Ryokan is right beside Iseshi station and a great spot to explore the region by public transport or rental car. Our room with tatami was comfortable and spacious, everything we needed. We were a bit apprehensive about sleeping with futon matress on the tatami but it proved to be one our most comfortable two nights sleep of our trip! Traditional Japanese breakfast is amazing, but it was a little too much food for us so for the second morning we asked if we could have only one plate to share (might be something to consider requesting beforehand if you're not a big eater in the morning, respecting Japanese etiquette to finish what is being served to you).

    The toilets are shared by many visitors but for us we did not meet any one. It was not so easy to recognize the hotel when we arrived. There are no really signs.

    Welcome is fantastic. We could get the room at 1pm. The room is large and very traditional. we leave for two nights like Japanese. The bathroom experiment was new for us. We enjoy after the long journey. The location of the hotel is just close to the train station, very easy to reach Nagoya and Toba. The breakfast was well served in a dining room

    The hot bath was a bit small, and no lock or anything for the women's bath area - which is actually pretty common with other shared baths I've seen. Other than that, everything was excellent.

    Super nice staff, location is excellent right next to the station. It's an old, traditional inn - but everything was well maintained and clean. Room for a single person with futon was spacious and comfortable. Communal bath and toilets were also clean, as well as the shared sink area on the second floor. Was very quiet as well. Great value for the price, highly recommend this place.

    This is a lovely place to stay. The building itself is nearly 100 years old and is a traditional Japanese wooden house. The rooms are spacious and spotlessly clean. I was fortunate enough to be offered a room for those with mobility issues as I would have found it difficult to get on and off the floor. My room had higher seats at the table and the futon bed was on a raised platform which was easier to get on and off. The bed was very comfortable. The owner and staff were extremely helpful. The breakfast was served in the room and was typically Japanese and delicious.

    Staff were extremely friendly and very accommodating. They were available to answer our questions and provided a wonderful breakfast for us. We had our luggage shipped from Tokyo with Yamato transport and the staff gladly accepted this and had it waiting in our room when we arrived. The onsen was an absolute delight. The ryokan was quiet and the room was very comfortable

    Make sure your luggages are light or you have to move up and down the stairs. the staff helped us move them to the room when we arrived. we had three big bags.

    The host and staff were hospitable. The public bath was small but hot enough to make us comfortable. it was worth for money.

    This is my favorite ryokan on this trip, unbeatable at the same price! A century-old hotel, a century-old building, a century-old style, clean and spacious rooms. One hundred years of experience and thoughtfulness can also be seen in the service of the clerk and the thick instructions on the table. But I didn't expect that the facilities and home appliances are very advanced, such as voice translators, handheld scanners, free washing machines and dryers in the store. The bathroom is clean, the hot spring is comfortable, and the location is next to the train station, super convenient!
