    The staff was very friendly and supportive. When a family with loud children made disturbances next door. The front staff moved us to a quiet room. The breakfast was also excellent.

    The Onsen bathtub was a great way to relax after a long day on the move. Super breakfast with a great view. Perfect way to start the day.
