Positive: Very relaxing stay at the Onsen Ryokan. They provide 6 private Onsen for hotel guests and the public ones. We used three of the private Onsen and were very happy. The dinner was typical and of very high qualitiy, even though some of the local foods are uncommon for the european taste (which does not mean that they did not taste well).
Summary: Perfect stay for 1-2 nights for relaxing

Positive: I like Yamabiko Ryokan very much. Even the price is quite expensive but we can get all best things from this accommodation. The room is very nice and good view by the river. There is toilet inside the room too! We can enjoy all 6 private onsens which is free of charge. And the public outdoor onsen is very nice too! I tried all of it ha..ha.. :) The staff is very good service. They take care all of us since we checked in until checking out. Dinner and breakfast are served in private room too! I recommend this place a lot !
Negative: no.

Positive: EVERYTHING. The staff are AMAZING. They gave us the full white-glove treatment and were very attentive. It's the small things like hand written notes and the custom name sign they made for us that go a long way. The mixed wood/tatami mat style room felt very comfortable. They provided a lot of snacks, soups, water, tea, etc that is part of our stay. The tap water is even safe to drink! Private onsens were great. They were even connected to the TV so you could tell if they were full or empty from your room. Each had a view of the outdoors and were super serene. Public onsens looked great. We always opted for the private onsens, but the public ones looked great too. The kei-seke (pardon spelling) was delicious. They gave so many high quality dishes and were portioned well. I am a heavy eater and I left satisfied.
Negative: The bidet was not working, but very minor issue.
Summary: Relaxing and recharging
