Japanese Authenticity Evaluation

5/10 Establishment offering a mix of authenticity and simplicity, with rooms decorated in a Japanese manner but modern. The shared baths add a traditional touch but remain modest. The overall architecture and ambiance sometimes lack depth, but the effort is notable. Decent cuisine, without extensive kaiseki research.
