Getting there is about an hour drive from Aomori city and hotel has nothing surrounding it but green. Perfect for a getaway but not ideal if wanting to explore Aomori city. The building is old but definitely revamped on the inside, and the option for Japanese style room is available (which the staff make the futon for you). Being able to wear Yukata was nice especially when going to the Onsen. We accidentally broke one of the ping pong rackets and the staff were very understanding about it (and only ¥500 to replace😜). Meals are buffet only style with amazing Japanese options for breakfast and dinner (I recommend the stake!!). Overall everything was very clean, relaxing, and enjoyable.
