During certain evenings, complimentary snacks and drinks are offered in the restaurant after 10pm. A 7-Eleven is located directly across the street for convenience.

the rooftop onsen provided amazing views and a relaxing experience. the room felt quiet and comfortable. i found some authentic japanese restaurants just down the road. frozen yogurt popsicles became a good treat after each onsen visit.
