“Stepping out places you directly onto a lively shopping street, a prime location for exploring local shops and enjoying the mochi pounding. The ryokan experience is authentic, though some might find the budget-style rooms a bit bare. The paper hotpot breakfast and onsen add appealing notes to the stay.”
