240922 lodging. As rumored, I was able to enjoy a real hot spring at Yunohana. The redness and itching on my skin from the Manza Onsen the day before had healed.

The only negative point is that the wi-fi in the room doesn't work. I hope for early improvement!

In a good way, this is a remote and atmospheric hot spring town left behind in the *Showa* era. That said, there are only a few hotels...The spotlight shines on Ikaho, Shima, and Kusatsu, and the number of people and prices have skyrocketed due to tourists and inbound tourists.Nowadays, it would be nice to enjoy a hot spring in peace.A traditional inn without excessive services or facilities.Do what you can by yourself.There may be some items missing, so please check in advance.My wife and I love inns like this the most.

I visited and took a bath quite a while ago. The tasteful bathtub gives you a nostalgic feeling. The quality of the spring water at Sawatari Onsen is alkaline and soft.

The hot springs here are wonderful. The building is beautiful, and the hot spring hut is worth a visit.However, there were a lot of older customers who looked like maniacs who were just looking for mixed bathing.Also, everything other than breakfast was not that delicious, and I felt more like Ito Onsen was being treated as a currency holder by the inn rather than as a hot spring guest. I hope that you will learn from the hot spring inns in Nakaizu and aim to provide customer service that is full of an indigenous feel.Even if you put that aside, it's worth staying for the bath.
