또 가고싶은 료칸 우오한
조용하게 여유를 즐기는 여행으로 가라츠. 우오한을 완전 추천합니다. 바닷가 앞이라 산책도 좋고 대욕탕 전망도 굿!! 프라이빗 노천탕도 너무 좋아요 진짜 강추!! 아침 조식 퀄리티도 너무 좋아요 다음에도 또 가고 싶을 정도입니다. 료칸 바로근처 초밥집도 꼭 가세요!! 인생 초밥을 만날 수 있습니다.

優美的古宅
很優雅的房子 有溫暖古老的氣質 服務人員很親切 也很願意服務 門口的奶奶很優雅 精確的服務每個客人 也讓每個環節以及環境能魅力的呈現 唯一美中不足是抽煙房居然沒有隔間直接在休息室旁 有人抽煙對我們沒抽煙或有小孩的家庭真的很困擾

The hosts are friendly even though they speak little English. Parking is sufficient. Room is clean and tidy. Food is delicious, especially dinner. Supermarket is right opposite the onsen, convenient to shop. The only thing concerns me is lacking of charging ports.

全体的に建物設備が老朽化でした。元は老舗の歴史ある建物だと思い期待してたのですが、古さがちょっと良くない方に出てますね。ちゃんと手入れや補修をすれば素晴らしい旅館になると思います。こういう旅館を盛り上げられないのが残念です

가라쓰가 작은마을이라 짧은기간동안 다 돌아볼수가있어요 그 중에서도 와타야료칸은 저렴한 편이고 마쓰우라강뷰도 멋지고 직원분들도 친절하십니다 갈땐 송영차도 준비해주셨어요 다만 오래된 시설로 낡은부분들이 보였습니다 그 점만빼면 100퍼만족

좀 늦게 도착하여 나카이상이 이부자리를 준비하는 상황에서 좀 재촉한 감이 있음. 그 외에는 모든 것이 매우 좋았음. 주변 지역은 매우 조용하여, 조용한 곳을 좋아하는 사람들에게는 안성맞춤임.
