Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is a great choice for a peaceful getaway by the sea with comfortable rooms and friendly service. However, the dining options are a bit limited, and there is some noise from the nearby railway line. The overall value for money is good.
The hotel offers various room options with excellent facilities and a great view. The service, particularly housekeeping, was excellent. The location, right by the sea, is truly remarkable. The dining experience, especially for those interested in gyudon dishes, was impressive. The facilities provided added convenience to my stay.
The hotel is in a superb location with a picturesque seaside view and convenient access to nearby attractions. The rooms are equipped with basic kitchen facilities but are quite small. The service is top-notch and housekeeping is efficient. While the location is fantastic for exploring, the proximity to the railway line may cause noise disturbances. The dining options are limited but include tasty organic jams. Overall, a clean and comfortable stay offering good value for money.
