I took a day trip to the hot springs♨. ❗An elderly couple took their time at the front desk, and when they went down the stairs, the hot water was soft and smooth to the touch (^^) I thoroughly enjoyed the bath at the Showa-style inn. However, I don't know about myself in the hot summer ~ It might be nice to be cool at night ❗ The price was 400 yen ~ ✨ Beetles came to the bathroom to rehydrate. ❗It is a place rich in nature✨

It was a hot spring with a great atmosphere 😀I stopped by at night to take a bath and it cost 350 yen. It is an elegant building with a Showa-era feel.The hot water is thick. The stars seen from the rock bath in the outdoor bath were beautiful ✨ You can see the stars well because there is not much light around 😀Revisit in June 2024The price had increased to 400 yen.I still think the cost performance is good 😄

The quality and temperature of the hot spring water is the best!Although the facility is old, it has the atmosphere of the Showa era.The open-air bath, especially the ``cypress bath'', is recommended.

Although it is a drop-in hot spring in a Showa-era facility, the quality of the spring water is very good.The hot water has a strong slippery texture and a faint plant scent that feels nice and warm to the touch, and the bathtub also has a boiling spout and a slimy bath separated by a partition, as well as a large open-air bath and a cypress bath with a roof.Despite the reasonable price of 350 yen, it was nice that shampoo and body soap were provided.
