The spring quality is the best. It was creamy.Unfortunately, the open-air bath is under renovation.Some people in the comments gave it a ☆1 and were harsh, but considering the location, it's easy-going at best, and moderate at worst, so I don't think there's any need to get too angry. It can't be helped because customers don't come easily.When I went there, the door was closed even though it said ``open for business.'' When I called them, they said they were going to go shopping for a while. I'm sorry to disturb you, but I don't get angry even if I think it has a rural feel and makes me laugh. You're not going to die, so enjoy the journey.

I don't want to give even one star❗When I watched it later, I realized that there were quite a lot of negative reviews, so I'm glad I stayed.Initially, when I applied over the phone, I received a vague reply and found that there were no available rooms.Well, these days, online reservations are the norm, and I thought that walk-in customers would be discouraged, so I googled the internet and found three rooms available.I'm happy to have completed my reservation as everyone is welcome.The next morning I received a phone call saying, ``We can't accept your request because it's fully booked.'' Haha? There are 3 empty rooms.❗"There was no internet support"Well, when I called, the person I spoke to told me to take care of the maintenance, but it was all pointless, and it's already been over 6 hours since I declined the call, but I was left alone in the 2nd vacant room with my reservation still in place... .....There's nothing you can do to help. If you can't deal with it, just call or just go bankrupt, idiot! ️

I had a relaxing time with the club members. I have fond memories of the starry sky I saw here. I also enjoyed the river.

The hot water is so slippery and comfortable that it makes sense that you are taking a day trip bath. Dinner dishes range from sashimi to grilled dishes and tempura, and morning meals are also well-prepared. The inside of the hotel is plain, but I think it's fine if you're used to traveling.

The bath was great! Also, I was healed by the proprietress' smile and atmosphere that could be seen even through her mask ❤The rice was also very delicious.It seems like it gets too hot in the summer, so I would like to visit you again in a different season 😊

It's a good hot spring, and both dinner and breakfast were delicious and luxurious. I think that the accommodation fee is too low.The quality of the spring water is good, so once the open-air bath is completed, it's a great place to stay.

This is a long-established hot spring inn that has been in business for a long time.It's right along the national highway, so you can easily find it.Anyway, the quality of the hot spring water is good. At first, it pops like carbonated water, but after that, it feels like it absorbs into your skin and becomes moist.However, it is not sticky and leaves you feeling refreshed after taking a bath.The inn probably has a long history, but it seems like it has been renovated, so it doesn't feel outdated.Unfortunately, there was no open-air bath, and the bathhouse was small, so I gave it four stars.

The hot springs were smooth and very nice.The food was excellent, and we had delicious local fish, Shimanto eel, and sweetfish.After that, you have to go up the stairs to the third floor, so it may be difficult for people with walking disabilities or the elderly, but other than that, the cleaning is very thorough, so there's nothing to complain about.

The inn itself was old, but it was clean and not bad.It's a shame that the bath time was so short, but the scenery and the nearby river were nice and calmed me down.I was very satisfied with the dishes such as crab🦀, eel, sashimi, and tempura😊
