Ooedo Onsen Monogatari Terunoyu(Old:Yukai Resort Terunoyu)

Reasonable price room with good Onsen. Yet the food is normal

お部屋も広く、家族4人ゆっくりと 休むことができました。 大浴場もとてもよく、個人的には 貸切風呂が最高によかったです。 ごはんもディナーバイキング 朝食バイキング両方とも満足できました。 また利用したいと思ってます。

First of all, this place looks terrible from the road. The side facing the river is concrete and looks old and dirty. However the side facing the entrance looks OK. I only paid $69/night with both meals so I did not anticipate much. All rooms face a river next to the main road so the view was not bad. If you expect to be pampered by staff that are at your beck and call than look elsewhere - it's your loss. The rooms are typical hotel/ryokan type, but you have to make your own futon mattress. The meals were something else. Yes, they are buffet, but with a really nice assortment of dishes. Breakfast was something I've never seen traveling and living 16 years in Japan: you are provided with a grill with wax-fed flame, and you have your choice of 3 (THREE) types of fish to cook! Sea bream, a small flounder, and I forget the third; I think split mackeral. The flounder was delicious and I ate two of them. If I am ever in the area again, I will go out of the way to stay here, and a good deal on the meals is what I look for in accommodation.
