Pros:
1. The room comfortably accommodated 3 adults, although the bathroom was a bit small even for one person.
2. The overall cleanliness of the hotel was satisfactory.
3. Breakfast met our expectations.
4. The onsen experience was enjoyable overall.
5. The hotel's location is convenient, being close to Lake Kawaguchiko.
6. Free parking area is near the hotel entrance.
Cons:
1. We specifically booked a room with a "mountain view" hoping to see Mount Fuji. Our room was on level 3. Unfortunately, we were disappointed to find that our view only included the tip of the mountain, obstructed by buildings and electric cables. This was quite different from the picturesque view advertised on their website. Considering the high price of the room (SGD$800 per night for 3 persons), this was a huge disappointment. We strongly believe that the hotel should reconsider offering level 3 rooms as 'mountain view' rooms and reserve levels 4 and 5 for this category, as this feels like a misrepresentation. 2. Dinner was a huge letdown. We were served only 2 platters of meat (pork and beef) of average quality and 1 vegetable platter for Shabu Shabu. The selection was extremely limited. Although we were offered a Kaiseki Ryori (multi-course Japanese-style meal) for the next evening, there was an additional charge of over $3000+ yen per person for the upgrade. Despite the extra cost, this option seemed more appealing as we did not want to have the same Shabu Shabu two nights in a row.
