Really nice little hotel Minutes away from Yunadaka station. Simple room, clean, nice breakfast buffet and access to lovely private onsens. The staff was very friendly and offered great service. A great quality-price value. Plus it is quite easy to reach the Jigokudani Monkey park by bus from the station.
