aduminoyu onyado nonomatsumoto

8/10 Good

"Booked very last minute and paid more than i planned but it was actually worth it. Its a traditional Japanese style hotel. Slippers / socks only once arrive. Free ramen at night and soft drinks. Rooms are exceptionally well equipped with no noise disturbance. Staff very helpful and welcoming and only 5mins walk from station and a wide variety of restaurants. Didnt use the pool or breakfast but both seemed very popular. And you get traditional pj’s to wear whilst in public areas and your room"
