Do you want to pay $400-500 for a 2 star hotel experience? You've come to the right place. To call this place "run down" is a compliment. Everything, absolutely everything is at least 30 years old. It's also not very clean. The garden is pretty nice though and building looks special from the outside. The "hot bath" is an oversized bath tub, has nothing to do with an Onsen or similar great Japanese bathing experiences. There is another bath that is actually alright and has a beautiful view but with limited access (mornings only for men). They also tried to charge us an extra $150 a night for our 5 year old kid for another matress on the floor, which we refused. We live in Japan, love Japanese culture and understand some things will be different. The service is also terrible: we were 4 people and consistently had only 2 towels, pillows etc. And the food is pretty bad. We weren't offered or asked for drinks or anything. The staff was nice enough though to not fully charge us after we decided to stay three instead of four nights.

Wonderful historic buddhist chapel and hostel. It is amazing that the temple has become a Ryokan like Shukubo. I plan to stay here again when I'm on a pilgrimage of the Saikoku 33 sacred places this year.

Really bad service for foreign people (even though we were really fluent in Japanese, one of us is JLPT N1 certified) Food is so-so and the room is okay Tells us there are no cabs and transport down, we were forced to walk down only to see a van and a bus pass by us with the name of the venue on it with some (presumably) guests on it as well as a cab that came in the same direction with luggages in the trunk.
