Motoyu No Yado Kurodaya

Rooms were subpar with renovations and cleaning desperately needed. The tub had black mold growing in the caulk and on tub surface. The bathroom was so cramped the toilet seat didn't completely open as it hit the countertop. The cramped size and plastic hardware were reminiscent of an RV bathroom. The step up to the bathroom was a wobbly small wooden platform which was dangerous for someone with an ankle injury who was wearing a boot but couldn't in the room. The Japanese style dinner wasn't very good compared to the others we had at other hotels and the bar options were limited. Most other places had a white wine, plum wine or plum liqueur but not here. Beer or sake were the options. The tour operators said this was a traditional Japanese hotel but I found it to be a run down mess. The Beppu area is super cute and I would come back to the area but chose a different hotel to stay in.
