I stayed at the detached Fugetsuan on October 18th (Friday).First of all, I told them that I would be arriving earlier than check-in time, but they kindly accepted that they were already ready.The room was spacious and there was an open-air bath in the room, which was great!The Nakai-san in charge was also a nice person and I was able to spend a comfortable time there.A little incident? However, on the way home, I received a polite apology, which made me feel very humbled.The food was so delicious that I couldn't finish it!It was a great trip to Fukui.

This time, I stayed in the Koume-chan room of Onsen Musume collaboration. The rooms are decorated with plums here and there, such as plum-patterned sliding doors and shoji screens, creating a calming space based on plum color. Onsen Musume fans will be greeted by Koume-chan panels and merchandise. The collaboration room seemed to be updated and updated, and I could feel the effort being put into it.Meals were prepared in a separate room (maybe different during busy periods), so I was able to eat in a private room in peace, and the meal itself was delicious, mainly Japanese food.Of course the hot springs were nice too. The hot spring water was clear and had a smooth feel. I would like to hear about any new collaboration plans.

The Hokuriku Wari had just started, so I was looking forward to it, but then I found out that the Hokuriku Wari had already ended.I wonder what it is! I was so excited that I went. We will pick you up from Awara Onsen Station, which takes about 15 minutes by car.The building feels like an old-fashioned inn that hasn't been renovated.Hokuriku Discount had started, but since it was a weekday, I was empty.According to the proprietress, there were many cancellations after learning that the Hokuriku Wari discount could not be used.It seems like there were a lot of complaints.The room was old, but it was spacious and had a hot spring bath that was constantly flowing, which felt really good. It's not an open-air bath, so the view isn't great, but the quality of the spring water is good. The food was also very delicious. There was so much cooking that I couldn't even eat.I'm rooting for Hokuriku.

[Guest room]・The exterior looks old, but the rooms have been renovated and are clean.・Yukata is pretty cute・Bed size is small but comfortable・Room amenities include yukata and toothbrush・Tea, pot, and sweets available・No hair dryer, you can bring your own・One key- Dial phone in the room・With fan heater【hot spring】・The large communal bath feels old.・The plants in the open-air bath were fake and made me laugh.・The entrance to the open-air bath is behind the bathtub.・Only 4 lockers with keys・4 small safes for valuables・Makeup removal only available in the public bath・There is no shoe box and the slippers are the same, so it gets mixed up with other people's and becomes confusing.[Customer service]・I was moved by the smiling face of the landlady.・Mr. Nakai isn't a bad person, but he asks me about my plans, such as the restaurants I'm going to and sightseeing spots. I reluctantly answered, but I was stunned to find out that he didn't provide any particularly useful information and was just asking questions.(He seems to be having a nice conversation, but there is no sign of him sensing the unpleasant atmosphere on his part.)・Even though I didn't tell them where I was coming from, I said "I'm from 〇〇 prefecture." Even if you know this in advance, don't say anything without asking.・Even though it was before breakfast time, I received a phone call reminding me, which was unpleasant.・I get the impression that many of the other Nakai-san are also older.【others】・No coffee service (500 yen charge)・Contains manga・Only one elevatorOverall, the rooms and hot springs are typical of a ryokan.You can enjoy it comfortablyI cannot say that Mr. Nakai's customer service is face-to-face.There was a moment when I felt like I had been dragged into trouble by an annoying neighbor's lady due to the brazen response.I'm sure the landlady is also having a hard time.*AsideI decided not to have dinnerMany stores allow smoking inside, including the alley in front of the station.Many stores do not allow children in.If you are thinking of having dinner somewhere other than a ryokan,Please note that the stores you can go to are limited.

It's nice to have a plan where you can stay with the Koume-chan panel. There are plans that can be used alone, and the staff was very attentive. I can't help but hope for a Koume collaboration for repeat customers (lol)

I used it for a day trip bath.The water was nice.I feel like I've found a hidden gem.There is only one difficulty. I guess the water pressure in the shower is weak.

Approximately 15 minutes from Awara Yunomachi Station, you will find it along a quaint night road. I stayed overnight without meals because I wanted to try local cuisine. The facility is a little old, but the hot water is good. The room is also clean and calm. It is not affected by the earthquake, so everyone is welcome.

The room smelled a little like sewage. Other than that, I'm satisfied. The food was also delicious.

The rooms with open-air baths were nice, but I was concerned about the age of the building and equipment.It's true that it's tasteful, but I think it's tough for young people.

Of course the atmosphere of the inn and the quantity of food were good, but what about the person in charge of the guest room? The response from the person was excellent!I don't know his name, but there was a person from Abeno, Osaka, who really enjoyed and healed me with his kind customer service.I would like to visit again to see this person's cheerful face!thank you very much.

When I told them that I wanted to check in earlier than planned, they were accommodating and I didn't have to carry heavy luggage.I was also satisfied with the service of the employees 😊The location is about 10 minutes from Awara Yunomachi Station, so it didn't feel that far as I was walking while looking at the surrounding cityscape.The room was spacious and very nice, but the price of over 10,000 yen without meals was a bit high. I felt like it too.However, overall I was very satisfied ☺️Thank you very much♪

I was able to stay at a good value for money because I got a regional discount! (Private room meal costs around 13,000 yen per person)I was worried after reading the reviews, but the employees at the restaurant were very kind and I was already able to take a bath in the open-air bath.There were a few other guests here and there, but it wasn't too crowded, so I think it's a good place for people who want to relax in a hidden gem.The building itself seems old, but the rooms seemed to have been renovated and seemed clean.It was nice to have card games and manga in the lobby!

The two of us took our time in the large private open-air bath called ``Tsukimi-no-Yu''. There were a lot of dishes and I was full. They were warm people who helped us at the front desk and picked us up.

For my husband's birthday trip, I booked an inn with both an open-air bath and a bath in the room, but I was told that the open-air bath was under inspection and could not be used today. However, it seems that the open-air bath has not been used for several months since it was inspected yesterday and today. I was not informed that I could not use the open-air bath, and there was no explanation given at check-in, and I only saw a notice after I went to the bath. When I went to the front desk to ask for a proper explanation, I was told that there was no one in charge. It's impossible.It is better to check whether the open-air bath is available before making a reservation. I won't go there again though.

The open-air bath is out of order and cannot be used today. There is a notice that has been around for a while!If you can't use the open-air bath even though it's a hot spring inn, I wish they would have lowered the price or opened the open-air bath for a fee!Cooking too...

A small and quiet inn. It's not flashy or lively, but it's perfect for relaxing and spending time.
