Hanayashiki Ukifune-en

Everything is ok except cleanliness was lower than the standard. The picture was my friend’s room which was more clean than mine.

The staff were nice, the breakfast was good, the room was alright, and the outside view was stunning.

Super hotel good location true traditional Japanese experience

The staff's English needs improvement. The rooms are acceptable, and the view is fantastic, but a smell is coming from the toilet. The hotel requires a full deposit at the time of booking, and you have to pay for the room again after checking out. It can take several weeks to get your deposit refunded. I am still waiting for my refund after paying a deposit of 33000 yen along with 33000 yen for the room fee. :(

An old ryokan that needs maintenance and proper cleaning. On the day of arrival we even found a centipede in the bath tub to welcome us ! Staff is friendly but does not speak much English so a lot of improvising and guessing to get messages across. Quite worrying for us on the last night as the hotel is just next to a river with heavy rainfall overnight all the bridges were locked down for use and we stayed up to watch the rising level of river all night in anticipation of an evacuation.

very nice location. staff is helpful and attentive.
