Japanese Authenticity Evaluation

5/10 This ryokan combines tradition and modernity, with some tatami and shōji in the spaces but also more Western elements in the rooms. The absence of an onsen and a less visible kitchen reduce the authenticity. However, the surrounding natural setting slightly enhances the overall experience.
