Onsen Ryokan Mitake

We loved our stay at an authentic old school ryokan. The staff was lovely and worked hard to make our stay pleasant. They have a special greeter named Milk who added to the charm. I slept well on the traditional mats. It was right by the bus stop so easy to find. The establishment has well worn aged charm that suited us.

This is a classical Japanese family operated hotel with friendly service. Room is big, but because the building is a little older, you can occasionally hear someone next door if they slide the door hard.

We had a great overnight stay here. It was so wonderful to experience a traditional Japanese Ryokan. The room had a great set up with tatami mats and sliding doors. Each night the staff came in and set up our futons for bed and in the morning, come in to put them away and served us breakfast. The breakfast was delicious and had so many delicious dishes that we were so full we didn't eat lunch. The onsen bath house was also the main reason we stayed here. They had a public bath and 2 private onsens for us to use. It was an amazing experience to bath in the onsen and to stay overnight experiencing a traditional Japanese Ryokan!

This place is not comfortable. The Onsen was really small. The common areas had a strong odor of cat urine. The staff we interacted most was inpatient, not willing to explain things or answering questions.
