It was a wonderful stay.From the entrance gate, I was looking forward to my stay, and the hospitality was wonderful, including a variety of welcome ice creams, fruit and yogurt, and a service where you could bake your own rice cakes in the hearth!The hot springs have a spectacular view, and on sunny days, it's great to take a bath in an environment with big mountains and other great nature right in front of you. The water temperature was comfortable, neither too hot nor too cold.A variety of dishes were served, including sake, and I was completely satisfied.The room had a great view and we enjoyed a local drink while looking out at the mountains.I would definitely like to repeat it again!

Probably about 5 times in the last 10 years.I always stay here when I go to the Minami Niigata region.I had heard the news of the previous owner's death.It's a shame that it happened in February of this year.This person gave me recommendations for other secluded hot spring inns, and secretly told me why they would not stop providing cigarettes inside the hotel. . .He was a person who created memories every time we met.Currently, my daughter is the proprietress and leads the business.The atmosphere inside the hotel remains unchanged.Use the usual annex.Previously, it was dinner served in the room.I feel the flow of time.That said, the hot springs are still excellent.I like both indoor and outdoor baths, along with the atmosphere.At the open-air bath, you can take a nap in the bathtub after taking a bath after dinner.You can spend time relaxing.Ladies, be more confident!This is a highly recommended accommodation that you will definitely visit again.
