Japanese Authenticity Evaluation

5/10 Perfectly located by the water, this ryokan mixes tradition and modernity. The rooms offer a nice immersion with tatami mats, but the culinary experience and baths do not seem to fully exploit classic Japanese codes, which slightly affects its authentic charm.
