Japanese-style (futon) room comfortable, clean and included sitting area overlooking garden. Delicious Japanese-style breakfast. Indoor onsen. We are walkers so walked 15-20 min from the Nishitetsu station. Shorter walk to bus stop to Saga, also to Donko boats, canals, and other Yanagawa sightseeing locations. Staff spoke limited English but this was not any different than others places in Kyushu. Names of guests are posted at front desk as welcome. Recommend this mid-level ryokan for a good value, good experience.
