Lovely simple friendly comfortable hotel. Very clean, neat, and tidy. Nice touches. Staff seems to take pride in everything. Delicious simple meals with selected local food offerings: local wine and local cheese together was excellent. We have been visiting for years. It’s always reliable. Fast internet, too. And the hot springs is really nice and feels curative. (If you don’t smoke, make sure to choose a non-smoking room.)
