The usage time seems to be about 1 and a half hours.Can 2 people enter the open air for men and women? That's what it feels like.The indoor bath seems perfect for about 4 people.The cloudy water was just the right temperature, and since I was alone, I stayed in the water for a long time.There is also a rinse-in and body soap available, which is convenient.

This is a female review♪Visited today, August 15, 2024. It is Chunichi during Obon.Day trip hot spring. This is a drop-in hot spring from Manza.I thought this would be nice in the summer since the water is lukewarm, so I stopped by. 90 minutes 500 yenAlthough it was during Obon, it was reserved for the timing. The outdoor bath, which I thought was a mixed bath, turned out to be an open-air bath for women only. ↑I learned about it later through word of mouth. I thought for sure that the place I was in was a mixed bath. Therefore, it will be a misleading review.When I was taking a bath in the so-called open-air bath, I was surprised to find a small centipede crawling on my arm. It becomes a hot spring surrounded by nature. I entered the open-air bath thinking it was a mixed bath, so I was nervous about when someone would come...If I had known that this was a women-only bath, I might have stayed in the open-air bath for a long time. When you open the door from the indoor bath to the outdoor bath, the open-air bath is right in front of you. Is there a lot of algae in the bathtub? That's the impression. There are probably some people who are not good at it.There are cups in the indoor bath so you can drink the hot spring water. Or rather, after drinking? While drinking? Please come inYour organs will feel warm from the inside.Although it was summer, both the indoor and outdoor baths were lukewarm, around 40 degrees Celsius. ? I was able to have a lot of monopoly slowly.Outdoor bath, grandpa's house? As I said, the garden of a private house is in full view, so I guess you need to be prepared.In the summer, lukewarm water is good.

Visited on 2024.06.15Open from 8am, day trip bathing costs 500 yen.I went in first thing in the morning, but I'm glad it's a dookusen.Slowly soak in lukewarm water.Although it is said to be a mixed bath, the open-air bath is small, so I felt it was a high hurdle for women.By the way, there seems to be an open-air bath for women only.
