    Had a great stay with 3 major baths for their onsen experience. Was able to experience all 3 with the one night stay and 2 meals. Was able to reserve a shuttle ride from/to Morioka Station

    Large lake-view room. Our fourth stay at this hotel and it didn't disappoint. Good food and you can hire a private onsen. It's a lovely relaxing place to stay.
