I used it for a day trip bath. The quaint building is lovely. The bathroom is small, but it's perfect for quickly entering.

About 10 minutes by car from Murata Interchange. On the way, you will pass through a fairly narrow road. There are several parking lots in front of the building and on the premises of the building, but the space in front of the building has a cliff behind it, and there are quite a few turns when entering and exiting, so once you park the building, Better to look at the availability of space on the side. Also, when I visited at night, there were no lights around the building, so be careful.The fee is 400 yen, and it is a bathroom at an inn. Since it's a small inn, the bathtub isn't that big, and there are two washing areas. There were other customers when I visited.Shampoo and soap are provided. The bathtub is large enough for about 2-3 people. The water is colorless and transparent, and seems to be boiling water. As for the bathing sensation, it feels slippery. The hot water was very warm.Although you are supposed to take a bath for less than an hour, the size of the bathroom didn't seem suitable for taking a long bath.

It has a very historical appearance, and I imagine that writers from the Meiji era would stay there and write... I hope it stays like this.That's the place

Stayed here in September of R6. The lobby is bright and comfortable with natural light. There is also ample sales space, so there is no need to bring in food. The accommodation building across the corridor is old and looks like it was built 100 years ago, and the stairs, glass doors, and hallway doors give it a tasteful feel. The room is large, but there is no lock on the sliding door at the entrance (there is a safe). In addition to bookshelves in the hallway and room, there was a VHS, which is rare in this day and age (I tried playing some, but the video was so distorted that I couldn't watch it and could only enjoy the audio). The hot springs are almost colorless and odorless, and the temperature is hot. Since the cold springs are being heated, there is a warning not to open the windows, perhaps to prevent them from cooling down. Although it is located deep in the mountains, the men's bath was always crowded as there seemed to be a lot of regular day trip bathers from the local area (the bathroom was small to begin with). On the other hand, according to my companion, the women's bath was not too crowded. Most of the facility was clean, but there were parts of the hallways and changing rooms where there were dead insects and dust, giving the impression that they had not been thoroughly cleaned. The food is plentiful and delicious. I don't think there are many places where you can stay at a hot spring hotel with half board for this price.

There were signboards at important points, so we arrived without getting lost. Before the bubble economy, we went through a period of high economic growth, so we probably didn't think about attracting customers until now... It's a ryokan from the Showa era, but that's all...My wife rarely said that she wanted to wash all the clothes she wore. , I agree. The hot springs were also smaller than I expected, and there were only two hot springs. Recommended for those who want to feel nostalgic, but we have no intention of repeating it.

Take the express bus from [Sendai↔Togatta] and get off at [Hirasawa]. There is no bus stop for Sendai, so they wait in front of the perm shop across from the bus stop for Togatta, but so as not to interfere with business.Walk about 2km, about 500m in the mountains.There are some ups and downs, but it's mostly flat and not too difficult.[For day trip hot springs, visit within 1 hour]It doesn't feel luxurious, but it has a quaint appearance.The water is hot, and the bathtub is relatively small.It's a hollow in the mountains (?), so it feels steamy.I headed from Togatta.Google guide says you can ride between [Togatta ↔ Hirasawa], but unless you go to [Satellite Miyagi], which is one place closer to Sendai, you can't go there.[Satellite ↔ Hirasawa] The road is narrow, so it is better not to walk.The taxi fare from the convenience store near the satellite bus stop to Kamakura Onsen was 2,250 yen.There was Aiyama Taxi near the satellite, so I didn't have to wait long.
