5/5
A popular inn known only to those in the know. It's a residential area, so there's no view, but if you walk for five minutes, you'll reach Yubatake. There's nothing I can do about the slope. If it goes down, it goes up. There's a lot of variety in the food: salt-grilled sweetfish is hot, sashimi is fresh, crab shell gratin, pork teppanyaki, a bowl of white rice, and more.Just looking at it makes me happy. I need to concentrate on eating rather than drinking! Can't compare to cheap hotel food. You can relax in your private room without feeling rushed. The baths are reserved for private use, and there are only two baths, so you don't have to wait. The water is clean and fresh. On the other hand, it's a little hot, but that's Kusatsu Onsen. Even if you're a first-time customer, you'll be happy to receive warm and friendly customer service that feels like you've known someone for a long time. It's such a small inn. By the way, you can use either bath if it is empty.

Limited to 2 groups per day, enjoy the luxury of relaxing in a private hot spring and eating your fill of delicious food. And the warm hospitality of the couple is wonderful. The facility is old and the toilets and washrooms are shared, but they are well maintained. It was an inn that I would like to come back to again.

I stayed here for one night with my family.It is run by a kind and lovely couple.The hot springs in the bath are wonderful, with the water flowing directly from the source from the Yubatake field.The food is also plentiful and each piece is carefully prepared.This was my second time staying at this inn, and it's one I'd like to visit again and again.I want this kind of inn to continue for a long time.

I haven't had a chance to go there lately, but since it's a small inn, the bathhouse is close to my room, and it wasn't crowded, so I was able to enjoy the hot springs as easily as I would in my room.I eat a lot of food and am satisfied.
