However, it still has a modern private bathroom and toilet for creature comfort. Most of all, the hosts showed great hospitality and attention to detail when it comes to service. Only negative aspect is that the region isn't very touristy (for those looking for a place to stay with nearby attractions). However, will still gladly recommend this place to all who intend to explore places of interest to the east of Lake Biwa. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s1184-pf199e6a0-53c4-11e7-a58e-2ab4820f5e46-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jun 2017 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller May 23, 2017 晩御飯付ければ良かったなぁと後悔 ##### Verified traveller Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Emily Nov 25, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lake facing hotel Nice and warm Japanese hotel with good lake view.
