Since the building was founded in the old days, people who expect a beautiful building may be reluctant to visit, but the inside has been well maintained, and those who are interested in architecture will appreciate the Sukiya-zukuri style building and rooms. I think it's okay.Above all, the quality of the dinner was excellent, the seafood was fresh, and there were a lot of light and elegant dishes.Is this price worth it? I was so impressed. We are proud of our 1000-man bath, which has an elegant and soft spring quality water that you will want to bathe in as many times as you like during your stay.The inn was more than I expected for the price.Thank you very much for your help. I would like to visit you again.

This hot spring inn has indoor and open-air baths, and you can also use the hot springs for day trips.The atmosphere is like an old-fashioned public hot spring, and the quality of the hot springs is pleasant, and the rest area is a Japanese-style room, so you can feel calm. There is a mixed bathing bath that can be accessed from each of the men's and women's baths, and from the women's bath, you have to take a key from the changing room to enter. Only bar soap is available, so you will need to bring your own shampoo etc. Lotion and makeup remover are not available in the changing rooms, but mini towels can be purchased for 300 yen, and bath towels are also available for rent, so you can go empty-handed.

It was a very romantic hot spring in the Taisho era☺️You might get a lot of attention for the mixed bathing, but I was enchanted by the classy floor plan created by the Japanese people in the past🤍It's truly romantic...!

🅿️Large parking lotWeekend fee: 1000 yen1500 yen including towel(You will receive a small towel with your name on it, and a bath towel will be returned to you)The locker is an outside rest areaThere are small lockers for valuables in the changing rooms for both men and women.100 yen coin, refund available♨️Women don't have to wash their bodies in the Senninburo (mixed men's bath); they can wash in the women's bath, then wrap themselves in a bath towel and go to the Senninburo. It's like opening the door with a key that only women have and entering the men's bath. On the way home, I unlocked the door and went to the women's bathroom.There is a lukewarm bath furthest from the door, and it's warm enough that you can stay in it forever, so it's strange that about 7 out of 10 people in the large 1,000-person bath gathered in that narrow lukewarm bath. It was a sight to behold, lol. You felt so close that if you reached out your hand you could touch everyone. However, the atmosphere is not conducive to crime. Everyone is enjoying the hot water.The water is deep on the way to the warm water, and as you walk, your bath towel comes undone due to buoyancy. To take a shortcut, you had to cross the border with the hot water area, so it was extremely difficult to hide your body. I feel a lot of male gaze when I move around.I was surprised that there was one woman, around 40 years old, who wasn't wearing a bath towel. It felt like a couple. However, in the case of women who are considered dignified, I think there are many patterns that you don't want to see, and I wish they would hide it because it looked vulgar.The men were split evenly between those who covered it with towels and those who did not.The women's bath alone was spacious, and there was a hot area, a cold area, and an open-air bath!The ceiling had a taste and was quite nice!Amenity is soap onlyHair dryer is chargedSpring quality ♨️ It was as smooth as the hot springs in Takeo! Very good!
