There are only rice fields and fields around the inn.It's nothing special, but I took a relaxing hot spring bath, looked at the mountains and rice fields from my room window, and then went back to the hot spring bath.

The official website says it's 500 yen, but it's 600 yen.There are also some cases of sloppy business operations where even the official website is not fixed.The cash register is always out of order and there is always a line, but they don't fix it.Many of the cafeterias are simple and average.The hot springs are constantly flowing, clean and not bad.There are two rest areas, but the area in front of the TV is occupied by local shogi players, so you can't watch the TV or get a cushion, which is extremely annoying, but the facility doesn't say anything.For better or worse, it is a relaxing facility.postscriptThis is my impression after the management company changed.Customer service is better than before.However, the price on the website is 600 yen, but currently it is 700 yen.It's a mystery why it doesn't get fixed every time, even if the contractor changes.Cleaning was not done well and the open-air baths were dirty.There are a lot of old leaves and things spinning around in the hot water.Restaurant prices have also increased. The menu has also changed.What are you thinking about hot springs being extremely dirty?

May 25, 2024 Morning bathArrive after 10:30, there is a bathing fee of 700 yen (600 yen on the website), lockers and baskets for changing clothes are free of charge, and conditioner shampoo and body soap are provided.Although it was Saturday, the place was empty with only about 3 customers.Is the indoor bath the main bath and above it? In other words, there is a bathtub with ducks (seasonal medicinal bath, perhaps?) on a higher level, and a sleeping bath connected to the main bathtub.The water temperature is around 40℃, so you can stay in the water for a long time.There is a mist sauna, but it is out of order! I couldn't get in. It's a pity that there is no information on the website when entering the museum. And there are no cold baths either.It's interesting that you walk into the open-air bath as if you were walking on top of the indoor bath, and the temperature of the water is a little higher than the indoor bath. There were three benches in the open air area, and although I couldn't use the sauna, I was able to enjoy a good outdoor bath.It was empty, so I was able to warm up in the bathtub, take a shower with the water shutters, and take a few breaks on the bench to relax.

No Wi-Fi. Dinner is luxurious. Crab steak is delicious. The smell of the bath clean bath is a nuisance to the hot springs. Even though it's deep in the mountains, there are no stink bugs. It feels good to walk barefoot.

When I looked at the website, the food looked delicious, so I visited.I ordered something like a Japanese set meal for 1500 yen. The large freshly fried shrimp and fried fish were very delicious.Also, the shaved ice was 250 yen with unlimited syrup (lol)You can also make rainbow shaved ice using 4 colors.All the staff were kind.The hot springs are colorless and transparent, but even after I got out of the water, my body felt hot and I was dripping with sweat.Although it was Sunday, it wasn't crowded so I had a relaxing time.It seems that the mist sauna is currently out of order for both men and women.However, the food is delicious, so this is a facility I would like to visit again.
