Japanese Authenticity Evaluation

7/10 We discover a ryokan that combines tradition and modernity. The rooms with tatami and shōji evoke an authentic atmosphere. The onsen, though modest, adds a pleasant touch. The cuisine, with its efforts on presentation and flavors, is pleasing. The architecture blends a classic style with more contemporary elements.
