I went there 3 years ago and although it looked old, it was cleanly organized.I enjoy hot springs alone after midnight.It was quiet and nice.It's directly connected to the open-air hot springs, so it's great for going back and forth.Kinrinko Lake is also close by, and breakfast is served at Kinrinko Bar.It is held at Chagall Restaurant in front.Parking is convenient..

A good choice for self-driving travelers. It is about 300 meters away from the old street and Jinlin Lake. You can go to Joyfull for meals. There is also a supermarket next to it and a parking lot, which is very convenient. One-night stay includes hot spring tax for 10,300 yen. The environment is clean and tidy, and the room is spacious. The service staff is friendly and will help carry luggage

The advantage is that it is close to the old street and Jinlin Lake. You can walk there. There is a Lawson convenience store diagonally opposite (but the bento in that convenience store is really terrible, much worse than in Taiwan). There is an open-air soup pool, which costs extra. 300 yen (it’s really weird to compare 300 yen with a tenant for a room that costs more than 20,000 yen per night). It's rare to find a Japanese-style room. The boss didn't provide any meals to bring in. If there were meals to eat indoors, it would be quite atmospheric. If the paper window is broken, it will not be repaired. The disadvantage is that the signboard is not obvious. Self-driving travelers should remember the appearance of the building. There is a small "Yufuin Museum of Art" sign hanging on the outside wall, which will make you wonder if you are going in the wrong direction? When you are wandering around outside, no one from the store will come out to welcome you. Instead, everyone will stay inside. The toilet in the room only has a toilet and almost no supplies, only a toothbrush and a mouthwash cup. You have to go to the soup pool to take a shower. It seems to be specially catered to Koreans and Chinese, and many of the explanation signs are only in Korean. The price-performance ratio is not very good. Tourists from Taiwan should think more about it. I think in terms of equipment and services, it is almost possible to consider a B&B. Although it is a tourist hotspot, its competitiveness is too low, which is a pity.
