A quietly run inn with few guest rooms. The interior of the facility has a classic interior, making you feel like you've traveled back in time. Accommodation is in a detached "Hidamari". It is a maisonette type, with a living room and tatami room on the first floor, an indoor bath with a rock bath on the veranda side, a double sink, and a toilet. On the second floor, there is a tatami room with futons, a balcony, and a toilet. Even if you lie on the futon on the second floor, you can see the greenery of the mountain through the large high windows, and you can also see the flow of the large river at the foot of the mountain. As the name of the room suggests, it was a comfortable "Hidamari" room. Dinner was a very delicious course meal, and breakfast had a lot of amazing options. It is even listed in the Michelin Guidebook. Guests are free to use the family bath, so we enjoyed both the open-air bath and the family bath. I decided to enjoy it separately with my husband. I was able to enjoy many luxurious baths without worrying about anyone. Especially if you are floating in a large family bath, you can forget about your daily work by looking at the sky. Since the business is run with a small number of customers, you won't meet any other customers and wander around the building in a yukata. While eating hot spring eggs until breakfast. Although I only stayed for one night, it was as refreshing as if I had been on a journey for about a year. The owner's farewell service was warm and heartwarming until the very end.

It's hard to stop by for a hot spring, on a summer day, without a fan❗

I went to Yoneya Bessou, one of the 88 hot springs in Kyushu. The quality of the spring water was good and I took a bath in the steam bath, but I think it would be better to have a bath towel to put underneath.The steam bath is limited to 3 people, but it was reserved for private use, so we were able to relax.

The website clearly states "meal only, dinner, reservation required, 6,600 yen per person", so I thought it would be possible to just have dinner, so I decided to use it with my mother, but I thought it would be impossible on the day, but at 2:00 p.m. I called at the time.Below is the full conversation.Me: “Hello. Excuse me. I would like to ask you a question. Can I have dinner and use the bath?”Rice store: “We are open depending on the date and reservation status.”Before I could finish my sentence, I said, “I see. How about today, for example?”Rice store: “We can’t do it on the day! We don’t do it!”Me: “I understand.”As mentioned above, I knew that it would not be possible on that day, so I asked, ``What about today, for example?'' and I didn't force myself to say, ``Why can't you do it today?''Even though I would normally refuse in this case.It is normal to provide guidance on what to do at the same time as the policy, saying, ``We are sorry.Customers are not gods, and there is no need to always be humble.However, in this case, I was a little surprised to see that they were responding to at least ``trying to use the content as advertised and politely inquiring about the situation.''I don't think there was anything wrong with my listening style.There may be a common sense among inns over there that "there's no way you can do it on the same day!", but that's something we don't know. That's why I'm asking politely.I thought it would be a good idea to give a star even though I haven't used it, but I have used a lot of inns and hotels, but this was the first time I felt like this just from a phone call, so I decided to write a review.Maybe it's because so many reservations are made online that they don't even have a basic manual for phone calls.It's a shame, as I was planning to use this inn because it had good reviews.

I only used the hot springs. I went without a reservation, and since it was a weekday, there was no one there, so it was essentially a rental hot spring. I've only heard it, but it seems like the men's bathhouse is slightly wider than the women's bathhouse.It is possible to save money, save money, save money, save money, save money and save money.になりました。入ったわけじゃいから良くわかりませんが、Men's bath and women's bath are available.す。
