The slippers provided were nice, because they were waterproof however, I was a little disappointed that they were weren't actual Japanese indoor/outdoor shoes provided. As comfortable as the robe was, I was a bit disappointed that it wasn't an actual yukata (or a robe themed to feel Japanese). I immediately took a shower and changed into the robe and slippers provided. Everyone working there was incredibly helpful and nice. They explained how things were going to go. Upon checking in, we had to fill out some paperwork. I personally would've liked to see a bit more theming (koi pond, bonsais, small temple would be nice touches). Being someone who's been to Japan before, I think they did an ok job at trying to tackle a Japanese aesthetic. Immediately, you notice some Japanese aethetics in the buildings. Once there, we had some difficulties getting a parking space, but did manage to get one. The roads leading up to the spa were a little challenging when cars were going the opposite direction. Our appointment was for 12:15, so they asked that we get there for noon.

We also were allowed access to the sauna if we wanted to use it.Getting to the location was rather easy direction-wise. This included 1 hour at the outdoor baths, 1 hour chea massage, and 30 minutes in the savasauna room. We quickly were able to get our package: The Michi Package.

We called in advance, since the net claimed there were no spots to RSVP. My husband and l decided to travel to go to Shoji to celebrate our 2nd anniversary.
