라이브맥스 리조트 카가 야마시로

Located right next to a bus station, with Yamashiro onsen village within walking distance. Not much nightlife or shopping, though as a relaxing onsen village I didn't expect them. Lobby was large with game area and relaxing space and the entrance to the onsen right off of the lobby. I didn't have that "space is at a premium" feeling here, which is rare in my Japanese experience. The room was large and well maintained, with Japanese style architecture and futons which really gave me the feeling of being in a Ryokan. There was a toilet and washbasin but no bathroom, for that we took dips in the Hotel's onsen. The hot spring bath was great. Water temperature was just right and there was an outdoor section and sauna room. Very happy with that. Staff was friendly, and explained things well. Better English here than most places I stayed in Japan. Good for a relaxation trip.
