i stayed in the ocean view room for 3 nights and it was really pleasant. The room is spotless clean with a great view. You can always take a walk after meals at the bayside.

Very good : perfect location close to Mount Daisen which we climbed the following day, the staff was very caring and nice, the room was small but comfortable and very clean, the food was correct but nothing extraordinary. Maybe a bit expensive though.

We were in a western style room. Admittedly the cheapest one possible. The lighting was pretty bad and no way to put the twin rooms together in a single bed. The staff were very friendly but few knew english. The private baths were great once you figured out how to control the temperture. The sea view from the lobby and lobby bar is amazing.
