My stay at The Hamanako was quite a mixed bag. The extensive buffet options for breakfast and dinner were a highlight, featuring fresh and varied dishes. However, the hotel itself felt dated, with some facilities in need of a refresh. Overall, it’s a decent place but with some room for improvement.
