They let me check-in a few hours earlier than their usual check-in time which is quite uncommon in Japan, but I did inform them I got a headache and was just going to wait it out in their lobby instead of leaving the hotel for some sight-seeing.
Hotel is on a hill-side and all rooms have great view facing the city of Nara. Room itself was great and 5th floor has the best view. Breakfast and dinner was nice for the two night stay, and they didn't serve my the same food for both days which was considering, just like other onsen ryokan in Japan.
They have free shuttle bus to Kintetsu Nara Station for check in (bus stop no.20), check out and sight-seeing during the stay, the bus will show up 15 minutes after you call them.
If you want some peace and quiet and enjoy onsen and nice food, can give it a try.
