I used it for a day bath while my companion was skiing.Although the building is old, it is clean and luxurious, and although I only took a bath this time, I would like to stay there if I have the chance.The hot water was a simple spring, but it warmed my body and was great.

I don't mind if you give me a little more, but if you clean everything up, it might be the best place to stay.

It is a historic and retro building. Although it is old, it is clean, and you can feel the attention to detail and hospitality in the amenities and facilities. The staff are also friendly and polite.The hot water is soft and the water is quite good.The only regret was that the air conditioning in the room was not very effective.

Stayed here for 4 nights on business.The owner, the landlady, and the lady serving dinner and breakfast make you feel at home and are now home! When I returned home, it felt like a welcome back.Hot springs are good. I loved it so much that I went in when I got home, before I went to bed, and before I had breakfast♪Even though we stayed for 4 consecutive nights, they changed the meal menu every day, and I felt that they took care of the nutritional balance.The lady who serves dinner is also very homely and the extra rice is served, which is really great.It was an inn where you could feel the warmth of the people♪I want to go again!
