만게 탁 리조트, 오노미치

It was a fine stay. The room was cool with the projector for viewing and we loved the souvenir machine. We slept comfortably and the hotel was quiet. The room was fairly clean and water pressure was great for the shower. Free bottles of water in the room was nice as well. However the cafe closed early, the ice cream machine wasn't working and the rooftop bar was closed. The property had dust bunnies throughout and staff was sparse which made it feel a bit like a ghost town.

When is a resort not a resort? In this case, when it doesn't provide any facilities outside the room. There's a rooftop bar in summer but nothing at other times. Staff were pleasant but breakfast was limited and when we asked for a second cup of coffee we had to pay for it. The room is large but was taken up by 4 double futons and a massive hanging screen for projecting TV/video. We felt it was intended for a large group who wanted to watch DVDs all day. The cost would have been fine split 8 ways if all beds were full but for us as a couple it was pretty extortionate. Also, no fault of the hotel, but out of season the town is dead in the evenings and only half alive during the day. We booked and paid for 4 nights but left after 2 on the grounds that it's only money and life is too short....

This was a good base for a couple nights before heading off on our cycle trip. The kids naturally loved the big screen and the ice cream and the room was well thought out and designed. Being located under the central walkway kept us dry on the rainy day.

The hotel is on the 2nd floor above the cafe, you need to change your shoes to go 2nd floor for checking in and there is no lift. The room is spacious and all single beds are very decent size. There is light combined with projecter on the ceiling which seems fancy but the pixels are very low. The cushion cover on each chair needs a good wash as it got quite a bit of stains. Bathroom is specious however the tap water pressure for sink is low and hard to get warm water. The breakfast is very simple and you can get free present which is very thoughtful and q surprise. You’ll get free soft ice cream during your stay from downstairs cafe. The access to the temple on the hill is quite close and you may go roof terrace for a good view. Hope this neutral comments will be helpful.
