8/10 Good
"We enjoyed our stay at this hotel, the room was staff are friendly clean, I like the comfortable bed and the room was well presented making it easy to relax after a long day. While I appreciated the quality, I did feel the price was a bit higher than the room and overall experience warranted. Still It was a pleasant stay specially the hot spring."

10/10 Excellent
"Loved the fact we had a decent sized bathroom including a full shower, not some tiny little cubicle. Beds were comfy, clean and even though the room may have been a little aged, it was nice and clean, neat and well maintained. There were the advertised appliances (kettle, microwave etc) and even though it was near a major road, the noise was not overly loud. We stayed 2 nights and would happily stay again!"
