    Property is some way outside of the town, but the 30 minute walk on the higher, back road between the two is a nice one, and the private onsens were really relaxing. We particularly liked the dohyo (sumo ring) styled one. Dinner and breakfast were great, too. Our room was spacious, comfortable, and had a view of the fields and village across the river. Particular mention must go to the staff, who worked hard to communicate in English, allowed us an early check-in and gave us a lift to the train station upon our departure. This was very much appreciated, but, obviously, ought not to be taken for granted.

    Nothing to dislike.

    That there’s a direct express bus to the property. Ryokan Yunosako is situated next to the bus-stop yet it is nestled in the rural area.

    There was nothing that stood out like a sore thumb. The outdoor onsens were made of rough rocks & we got some scratches. So, would ask them to make it smoother

    The outdoor onsens were plenty in number & easy to get into without waiting. A Kaiseki meal was provided at dinner & breakfast & it was an 11 course tasty meal. The people who run the place were very chill & didnt impose strict rules. So, for a family with a 5 yr old it felt relaxed.

    The bottom of the rock bath was rough and painful. I would appreciate it if you could replace the small pink basin in the bath and the slippers in the toilet.

    The food was very delicious. Especially, the pie gratin and fish were delicious. The starry sky was so beautiful.

    Part of the experience is the traditional mats on tatami floor for sleeping. But I wish we had a few extra pillows or the options to double up on mats as my body wasn’t used to sleeping on the floor

    Cozy, countryside ryokan! Some of their hot spring options were better than others. Excellent breakfast + dinner meals, served traditional Japanese omakase style. The staff were able to use google translate and help us coordinate our bus ticket out.

    Amenities in the bathrooms are quite lacking and looks very old. They provide packet soap and shampoo but the bottled soap/shampoo looks pretty bad.

    The staff waas really friendly and helpful. The rooms are pretty nice and clean. Plenty of private baths that we can use for free. Food was decently good as well.

    Breakfast offers a good variety of tasty dishes. The place is located in a quiet village a few minutes drive away from the more touristy group of onsen ryokans, perfect for walks along the creek at the back of the property or an easy hike up the hill.

    The accommodation can get cold overnight so just need to have the heater running now and then to keep the air warm.

    Comfortable accommodation. Staff friendly and sweet. Breakfast and dinner included (option of 6pm or 6:30pm dinner and 08:00 or 08:30 breakfast) meals are substantial and impressive. There are three private onsens to use at the accommodation, they have a system where guests can take the wooden plaque from the main building with them to signify that it is unavailable. The stay was peaceful and has views of surrounding fields and the tranquil view and sound of a flowing river. Would recommend
