The 24-hour hot spring is great, and the three baths are all delicious, so I think it's great for families. Children mainly take the outdoor bath, but if they like to sleep, they can take a bath in the indoor bath.

Although I did not stay there, I am writing a review because I am grateful to the very friendly owner.I took the bus to stay at another hot spring in Kurokawa and accidentally left my bag on the bus. As I was standing on the street with a puzzled look on my face, he asked me if I needed help first. I told him the situation, and he immediately turned on the translator and said, ‘We will chase the bus. He said, ‘Get in my car!’ In fact, I think I ran about 5km in the boss's car. In the end, I couldn't catch the bus and later found my bag another way, but I wondered if I could be so kind to a traveler I had never seen before.Thank you very much. If I visit Kurokawa again in the future, I will definitely say hello and go to Yunosako Onsen. Stay healthy until we see each other again, boss!!

I was a little nervous about answering the phone, so I was nervous. When I actually visited, this was not the case at all, and I was warmly welcomed.Above all, the 100% free-flowing hot springs were very pleasant. There are only a few guest rooms, making it cozy and relaxing. I could see many stars from the open-air bath and it was relaxing. I was grateful for the reasonable price even though it was the busy season.It may not be suitable for those who are looking for a beautiful and sparkling hot spring inn, but it is perfect for those who want to enjoy the hot springs flowing directly through it.

Share the following information for recent staysadvantage:1. Self-driving parking is convenient, with sufficient parking spaces at the front entrance and side doors.2. The service was very friendly from the moment I checked in. Even though I can only speak simple Japanese, the introduction to the hot spring house, breakfast and dinner, etc. were still very detailed. I also paid attention to the meal situation when delivering the meal. It is a very considerate and lovely family operation. It's a very humane accommodationshortcoming1. The room was not cleaned well, there were too many spider silks⋯The ceiling, corners, doorways, etc. were not cleaned🥲 (Spiders were hanging everywhere~)2. The amenities are very good, including disposable shower bags and old bath towels. The quality of the room costs nearly 10,000 yuan per night and can be improved.3. Because I wanted more private space, I chose a room with a bathroom. However, there were only a few small trees separating the bathing room from the road (there were no curtains to cover it). There was an open vent above the window. That day There are big bees staying in the bathtub. For those who are concerned about insects, I strongly remind you not to stay in a room with a bathroom (and the bathtub is moldy)4. Went to the women’s hot spring. Although there were no insects, the equipment was really old. There really was no advantage worth mentioning except that the hot spring was very hot☹️5. The cute soup house in the photo is located outdoors farthest from the main building. Next to it is the side door, which is only pulled up by a red dragon, which makes it very insecure (and the slope is very steep).For travelers who want to experience the local style, I think this hotel is OK. The portion of one hotel room and two meals is ok for girls. Boys may be just 6 points if they are full. The ingredients taste very homely and I like it very much. But those with higher equipment requirements should really think twice ~

I stayed in a separate room called "Heike".There is a private bath in the basement, and there are 2 spacious rooms, and there are also 3 private baths so you can fully enjoy the hot springs.I went there without doing much research, so I was pleasantly surprised.There were 4 separate rooms, and although it was a Saturday and Sunday, the private baths were not too crowded and I was able to use all 3 of them.The food is delicious, and it is recommended for those who want to take a relaxing bath in the mountains.
