"Excellent hotel with good facilities. And good quality of service"

"The thoughtfulness of each and every staff member was incredibly comforting, making this trip three times more enjoyable. Also, the breakfast rice was absolutely delicious, and I had seconds. I would love to go again in September with my son and wife who live in Tokyo."

"It was very good."

"The room has a dining room where you can eat skewers in the evening, which is very special. Unfortunately, the hot spring water is too hot to soak, open the tap and add cold water is not enough, too little cold water, the shower is very old water temperature is not easy to control, about eight o'clock more call to the service table no one answered, out to reception no one, I can only pour hot spring water 😅 The next day breakfast tasted good 👍🏻 I do not eat raw horse meat, after booking the store contacted me, also stated, but no reply, and both meals appeared raw horse meat. Later to the public hot spring bath, the water temperature is just right, the environment is very good, but my husband said the men's hot spring water is still very hot, can not soak 😆"

"It was a place that made me exclaim in amazement the moment I first entered.. A private villa with a private bath, too. It was the most memorable place from my 6-day, 5-night trip to Japan!!!!"

"It was a perfect trip from reservation to accommodation reception, dinner, and hot springs. I was able to spend my trip happily thanks to the friendly service and explanation."

"The value is 👍 I especially recommend Cheongong-i-tang for a new experience. The only downside is that moving around the room is a bit inconvenient, and if someone ahead of you is already using the hot spring you want, you'll either have to wait or go to another one. If the timing isn't right, you can't wait at the door, which can be a bit annoying... There's no intervention from staff, and there's no need to worry about the guests' squabbles. Fortunately, we only stayed in the shared room, so we had a relatively private stay. Out of the dozen or so ryokans I've stayed at in Kyushu, this one ranks in the top three overall. If the price is right, I highly recommend it!! Grab it! However, the room layout isn't that great... The cleanliness and bedding... I personally didn't find it bad. And the food wasn't exactly delicious or special, but they prepared it with great care, and while the explanations weren't polished, they even spoke in Korean, such as wild boar and rabbit caught in the mountains. The slightly red-faced female employee was warm and friendly. The ingredients were a bit shocking: wild boar, deer, hare, duck... she's a total enthusiast. I saw three staff members. The red-faced female employee walked us to the parking lot barefoot, helped us with our luggage, and even stood there until we were out of sight when we left. The elderly lady employee was unusually direct for a Japanese person... she seemed a bit angry... but she had a cute side. The old man employee? The owner? He seemed like a rascal, just responding and doing his own thing, avoiding eye contact. Anyway, it seems like a step toward the essence of Japanese hot springs. It might not be a perfect ryokan, but it'll be a precious ryokan for some. ^^"

"I was able to relax in the hot springs."

"What to do when it rains? Of course, book a private onsen with a view of nature! It is absolutely fantastic. A little secluded, covered and with brilliant blue water. View of the greenery. We enjoyed it very much! You don't have to be a hotel guest to use the onsen."
