Traditional style ryokan, futon beds set nightly. Incredible Nagasaki city views. Hotel is dated yet charming due to the friendly staff. Breakfast buffet is same selection daily which can seem a bit like Groundhog Day. Set on a steep hilltop, do not even think of walking from the Nagasaki train station with luggage unless you are a world class hiker.
Upon entering the room, it has a masky smell and felt as if no one has open up the room to air it. The sink has black stain edges. It does feel the hotel has alot of hit and miss areas. Though the manager on duty remain friendly and warm. The hotel is right at the top of the hill and the drive is challenging with limited lights. if you are foreigner, you will miss all the turns especially at night.
