I stayed here twice with a friend.It was a quiet place known only to those in the know, so it was a place where you could heal not only your body but also your mind.I was talking about wanting to go there again before winter, but then I heard that it would be closed indefinitely due to various reasons, so I was very disappointed.I sincerely pray that I will be able to take a bath in that hot spring again.

Due to the sudden death of the owner, the museum will be closed indefinitely from July 2024. I feel very sorry. I think this is a hot spring inn that can be called a treasure of Japan. As a fan, I just pray every day that this place somehow survives.It's a medium-sized inn that seems to be family-run, with a Kiya-chan and a Nakai-san as well. The new hot spring is a secret hot spring of such high quality that two of the inns of the Mamorukai are located next to each other. Among them, this is a valuable inn where you can enjoy the smell of sulfur while being kind to your wallet. I will go again.

The sulfur springs are the best, and the shuttle service was helpful.I used it around winter last year. The cost performance was good and I was very satisfied with the hot water. On the other hand, when I turned on the heating in my room, the smell of gas was so strong that I couldn't sleep. I wanted to visit it again during the season when heating is not needed, but it seems that it has temporarily closed... It's a good place for people who like hot springs, so I hope it somehow continues to operate.

It was crowded for day use, but it was great if you could get in comfortably. Although it is an acidic sulfur spring, it is mild. The amount of hot water is small, but it is flowing continuously. Be careful not to get extremely hot at the sprue, and be careful of the old man occupying the mud pack.Hey, overweight guy, you should be more concerned about your fat than your skin...and be more considerate of your surroundings.This was my second visit and I stayed overnight without meals. It was cheap.Not only the indoor bath but also the semi-open-air bath was good.

It's good that the bathroom is close to the room.The hot springs were also great.The rice seemed to be made properly, and although it wasn't luxurious, it was satisfying.This is a recommended inn if you like hot springs.There is no air conditioning, so be careful in summer.

I visited on July 4th after hearing that it was closed. It's a shame because the spring quality and mud are good.I hope it will reopen again.

As of July 7th, we will be closed indefinitely. Is it effectively a closure? I'm sorry.
