Hotel Analysis
Based on 2 sites · 29 reviews
A small onsen ryokan in Tsuruoka's Yunohama Onsen area. Guests often mention the quiet location deep in the valley and relaxing soaks in the onsen.
The onsen is the biggest highlight. Reviews repeatedly praise its comfortable temperature, smooth water that lets you soak for hours, and skin-softening effects. Meals are hearty and delicious, featuring local Haguroyama veggies. Staff kindness and the healing cats also stand out.
However, several complaints note the Japanese-style toilets are uncomfortable for those with leg issues. Calls for separate men's and women's bathrooms and firmer pillows appear too.
