The course meals using wild vegetables and local ingredients are exquisite.Dinner and breakfast were so luxurious that I couldn't finish them all.I think many people come back just for the food.I stayed with my children, and they prepared a lunch for them, and they also had cute yukatas as amenities for the kids, so I was happy.The thick hot spring water will make your skin super smooth! The temperature was too hot for children to enter, but there was an Anpanman bathing chair and tub for children (^o^)Since it's an inn deep in the mountains, the room wasn't that clean and there were insects (which can't be helped), so I reduced the number by one.Other than that, I'm very satisfied and recommend it.

5/5
I took advantage of the Akitabi campaign and stayed on a one night, two board plan.The satisfaction level of the meals was simply amazing, and the creative dishes made with plenty of local ingredients such as Inaniwa udon and Minase beef were served in unique menus that you wouldn't find anywhere else, and both dinner and breakfast were delicious.When I first saw the room, I was surprised by the typical style of a Japanese-style room with a bed placed all over the place, but since I don't like futons, it was perfect for me, and I was able to sleep soundly on the fluffy bed while enjoying the Japanese-style atmosphere. I did.The cypress bath draws hot spring water directly from the bath, so it took about 5 minutes to warm up after turning the faucet, which was a drawback, but it is a modern day experience that you can enjoy the natural hot spring bath while feeling the smell of cypress in your own private room. That was a good point.The bathtub looked a little small in the pictures online, but when I actually entered it, it didn't feel particularly small.The shop corner next to the reception desk doesn't seem to exist anymore, and it was just a space with yukata and amenities.At check-in, you can choose a yukata of your favorite size and design as well as a bag for the bathroom, so it was interesting to see each guest's individuality come out in a variety of styles at the meal venue.The large public bath was minimal, with three washing areas and one bath, but due to the small number of rooms, it was rare for people to interact with other guests, so it was almost reserved for private use. I was also happy to be able to enjoy authentic natural hot springs.They are currently applying for business licenses for the open-air bath and steam bath, and are scheduled to open soon.The staff was also very helpful, telling me about sightseeing spots and events nearby, and I was able to spend a pleasant time from beginning to end.

The food was very good.There were 6 types of appetizers. Minase beef nigiri, overnight-dried rock fish, and grilled cherry tomatoes with Burigakko cheese inside are sure to delight in taste and appearance. The sake goes well with just the appetizer. We recommend it as they have limited edition sake that is only distributed locally.You can enjoy the legendary Minase beef, which is produced by only one producer, as a steak.Each item is carefully handmade, making it the perfect inn to enjoy Akita Prefecture's local cuisine.The breakfast was also surprisingly delicious with freshly cooked Akitakomachi.I also felt that the ingredients were made locally for local consumption.We also recommend the cold brew iced coffee at the front desk.It looks like you will soon be able to use the private open-air bath and steam bath. I took a tour of the place, and it was a luxurious space that you could rent for private use, and it even had a massage machine.

4/5
I was surprised at how delicious the food was.Even locals are impressed by the way ingredients are used.I realized after I finished eating that there was no sashimi lolIn a sense, it might be cleaner than eating half-baked sashimi in the mountains.I think it has been renovated, but there are some oddities, like the walls are clean but the sliding doors are dirty.If a private bath is available, you can reserve it as many times as you like, which is a good deal.I didn't know that the steam bath was closed for the winter, so I wanted to be informed in advance.It seems like it's going to be difficult due to a lack of manpower, but I wish them all the best.It was a good dish that I would want to repeat as a main meal.

I stayed at this inn in Oyasukyo Onsen for one night because I wanted to see the large hot springs. ||The building was clean and the room was clean. …

The room was a good size for a family of three and was clean. It had a cypress bath, but the bathtub was big and the washing area was small, so it felt like just soaking.The food was very delicious! However, the alcohol menu didn't say whether it was dry or sweet, and even when I asked the server, I didn't know because I don't drink it myself! I was disappointed that I had to say that. There weren't many types of alcohol, so I wish I had known that much.

I was satisfied with the dinner, which included some unusual dishes such as mushroom ajillo, thanks to the blessings of the mountains, but I was a little disappointed with the Minase beef. The inn only has 9 rooms, and the baths are clean, typical of Oyasukyo Onsen, and although there are only indoor baths, it was relaxing. The door to the guest room is difficult to close and you can hear a lot of surrounding noise. I stayed in a Japanese-style room, and although I was happy that there was a futon on the floor, the cypress bath in the room was simpler than I expected. The dinner portion was small and there was no food available at the shop, so it might be better to buy some food.

The name of the inn in Koyasukyo Onsen is fashionable, but the facilities are old, and I heard that the owner has recently changed. I'm sure it will get better from now on.There is no open-air bath, but the room is large and comfortable.The amount of food was just right and it was very delicious. Mr. Nakai is a very kind and interesting person. Since the number of rooms is small, only 5 rooms are fully occupied, so you can rest assured that the dining room has a partition screen and the distance between seats is at least 5 meters.The yukata and coffee corner are self-service, which is a very welcome service in this day and age.

Stayed in a 16 tatami twin bed room with the standard plan. The regular rate is 13,000 yen (for 1 person when 2 people stay). Sometimes there are sale plans as well.The room has a cypress bath (hot spring) and a washlet. However, the bath and toilet are small. It's nice to have a hot spring bath, but it's the size of a single person, so you'll have to bend your legs. I can't relax... The floor also sinks in some places. The room is spacious, but the bath and toilet are honestly stressful. I guess it can't be helped since they are renovating an old inn. There are no amenities such as lotion in the room or in the public bath. Since it is winter, the windows of the room are covered to prevent snow from outside, so there is no view. The haori worn over the yukata was in disrepair as there were 5-6 stains on the cuffs, probably from dried food juices. The string at the front of the other haori was beginning to come loose.Dinner is served at the venue. When it's ready, they'll come to your room to pick you up. It is said to be a creative dish and seems to have a good reputation, so I have high hopes.A screen separates the seats. There are tatami mats and chairs and tables so your feet won't get tired. The tables were covered with clear vinyl cloths, which didn't give a good impression. The meal is quite voluminous. There is no menu, and there are no detailed explanations, so you have to think about what the dish is before you eat it. Overall, there were a lot of sweet dishes. Although it was edible, none of the dishes felt that ``delicious'' and the portions were large, so I decided to leave a few dishes behind. The menu probably changes depending on the day, so I think it just happened that I didn't like the menu that day. If possible, I'd like a menu for creative dishes that I don't know what they are when I try them for the first time.To be honest, dinner was disappointing, but breakfast was very good. Yes, breakfast is good.When I looked at the official website, it was said to be an inn run by an old man, and I was told that I didn't have enough yukata sashes, and that after 30 seconds of being confirmed with ``Kirin Beer,'' they brought me ``Asahi Beer.'' I guess that's a compliment.However, I'm disappointed in the stained haori. Even though it's a room with a hot spring bath, it's still that bath. For 13,000 yen, I would probably choose another inn in Oyasukyo.
