Japanese Authenticity Evaluation
5/10 Pretty natural setting and some pleasant traditional elements, but the architecture and rooms mix a modern style that limits immersion. The baths seem pleasant, although not exceptional, and the cuisine appears correct but lacks authentic refinement. A good balance between modern comfort and tradition, without being completely typical of a ryokan.
