I booked this ryokan through hostelworld.com, because of the fabulous reviews that had been posted there… and I wasn’t disappointed. Mr. Yumoto and his wife were most friendly and accomodationg. This is one place I won’t forget! The trips to Monkey Park and the bathhouses, all assisted by Mr. Yumoto and his car were exceptionally beautiful. And the Japanese breakfast, though daunting  was delicious. And all this in one night. I will be sure to recommend this place most highly. Thank you Mr. Yumoto and Mrs. Yumoto for making my visit so wonderful.
