<h2 class="titreeval" style="color: var(--primary-color);font-size: 20px">Japanese Authenticity Evaluation</h2>
<span class="noteauth"><b>6/10</b></span> <span>Harmoniously located, this ryokan combines modernity and Japanese touches but occasionally strays from pure authenticity. The rooms feature tatami mats but also include contemporary elements. The bath is charming and pleasant, although modest. The cuisine, though decent, lacks a bit of the typical refinement of kaiseki.</span>

<div class="diveval">
<h2 class="titreeval" style="color: var(--primary-color);font-size: 20px">Japanese Authenticity Evaluation</h2>
<span class="noteauth"><b>6/10</b></span> A subtle blend of modern and traditional elements, this ryokan offers rooms with tatami mats and futons, but also includes contemporary touches. The culinary experience seems to lack an authentic kaiseki. The baths are present but do not have striking traditional onsen characteristics. Pleasant ambiance but slightly Westernized.

<h2 class="titreeval" style="color: var(--primary-color);font-size: 20px">Japanese Authenticity Rating</h2>
<span class="noteauth"><b>6/10</b></span> <span>Faithful at times, this ryokan blends Japanese elements such as tatamis and a pleasant onsen, but the modern influence is noticeable. The cuisine seems honorable but lacks the typical refinement of kaiseki. The ambiance remains decent, although it can be improved for a full immersion.</span>
