I liked Everything!! The old building filled with warmth and history. The beautiful garden view from my room. The exquisite craftsman woodwork, the inviting tatami mats and the graceful shoji screens. The bottle of wine welcoming me with a personal note, a heart shaped napkin and tasty little sweets. The dinner was the best I have ever had in Japan. Everything was prepared with utmost quality, care and a total joy to my senses. I am already looking forward to one day come back to Sowaka, to fully enjoy this peaceful oasis.
