This hotel is supposedly the best in Sendai, so when I visited, I booked two nights to experience it. It's a bit far from Sendai Station, which isn't ideal if you're lugging luggage. We ended up taking a taxi from the station. Since we arrived before check-in, we were able to store our bags on the first floor. Later, after we checked in, a staff member brought them directly to our room. My room type offered a nice view, with a distant glimpse of the Great Kannon statue. The room itself was spacious, but it definitely felt old; many facilities are in need of repair and updating.
I don't know why, but they gave me a room with a smoking sign. The hotel said they were full and couldn't change it. It had a very strange smell. The hotel itself is quite nice, right next to the Guanyin statue. The rooms are large, the breakfast is good, and there's a large Aeon supermarket across the street.
The hotel staff are friendly, polite and helpful.
The dinner dishes are exquisitely presented, and the breakfast buffet has a wide selection of food.
The bedroom facilities are complete and tidy, and the wet and dry toilets are separated.
The hot springs are comfortable, but you need to walk up more than 40 stairs to get to the outdoor open-air bath.
The only drawback was that the toilet could not be flushed. After calling the staff, they immediately provided assistance but could not repair it immediately. In the end, I had to use the toilet in another room. 
We stayed with 3 friends. It was best that the room was large and even 3 people could spend without feeling cramped.
It was also helpful that there was a free parking lot, and I was grateful that there was no additional charge even if the check-out extension was extended.
The location is a bit far away, but considering the price, it was a hotel that was satisfactory enough and convenient. I still want to use it.
A cozy hot spring hotel. The female staff at the check-in counter was very friendly. I asked her to help book a taxi the next day, which was also very prompt. The welcome drink after check-in was a pleasant surprise. Dinner was Miyazaki steak. The whole set meal including dessert was very rich and satisfying. It is worth visiting again.
