It is quite difficult to locate the hotel even though you have inputted the mapcode correctly if you are going there from east side. This hotel has 4 private onsens (no public). I and my wife can enjoy the private onsens without any disbursement. All 4 onsens operate 24 hours, so you can enjoy onsens anytime you like provided that the onsens is not being occupied by others. The hotel only has 8-9 rooms, so it is a quiet and allow you to relax in the hotel The stay covers both dinner and breakfast, the food is fabulous. For dinner, each table has its own embedded barbecue set and the charcoal is already burned in a good condition. In addition to beef, chicken and veg, it also comes with a traditional Japanese river fish (my favorite), so you can do your own barbecue. Also traditional Japanese starters, tempura, Miso soup..... Etc. Breakfast is also good that you would not explain. The staff (wearing Kumamoto T-shirt)also nice and helpful, they smile all the time. Most of them can speak simple English. The hotel is a good location for accessing Aso mountain (only 30mind drive to the Aso volcano). Special thanks: the staff prepared 2 big rice balls wrapped with seaweed and passed them to us during check out, this is a wonderful service, so we can enjoy the rice balls during our Aso mountain trip.
