This is a hotel that has an open-air bath in the room, and I stayed here this time.There was no staff here, so check-in was done at the affiliated Umiyu Garden.The open-air bath was a hot spring that was fed directly from the source and was not heated by adding water.The equipment in the room seemed a little old, but it was generally well maintained.I could see the ocean from the bath, and since the weather was nice that day, I was glad that I was able to relax and enjoy the beautiful ocean view.I was also satisfied with the reasonable price!

It might be okay if you just want to soak in the free-flowing hot springs in the guest room's open-air bath, but there were too many difficulties and there was no next time.I do not recommend it to those who want peace of mind, safety, and cleanliness.P.S.: For some reason, my whole body started itching the next morning, and when I looked closely in the mirror, I saw bite marks all over my body. If it was just my upper body, I thought I had been bitten by a mosquito in the open-air bath, but since I was bitten all over my lower body, it might have been the same one. The journey continues, so I'm glad I didn't get hit in the face. Be careful in room 502.

This hot spring hotel is suitable for more self-driving trips. Because there are no shops nearby.There is a smoking room suitable for both of us and our cigarette shovels.The room is clean and comfortable, and the environment is quiet, where you can enjoy and rest slowly.The staff are friendly and polite.

All the rooms are in disrepairIt's really worn outI often do business in a room like this.But I like it here.I have booked another night stay.I like hot springs, so staying at an inn that specializes in hot springs like this would be nice.This is a valuable asset as there are fewer and fewer accommodations that are completely fed by natural hot springs.But it's worn out lolCheck-in is only done at the main building, and once you receive the key, you won't meet anyone.When checking out, put the key in the key box and leave.This is my first time, but I think it's an interesting system.If you have anything to do, please contact me via extension.With only 6 rooms, you can spend a quiet time without meeting other people.There is an open-air bath on the large balcony side of the Japanese-Western room.The toilets and sinks are also clean...There is a surprising amount of dust accumulating on the air conditioner vents and indoor air conditioner intakes.This was mentioned in other people's reviews, but I was surprised that it hasn't been improved at all.It's really an impossible level.Shouldn't you hire a professional to clean it?The open-air bath looks big, but it's notI can't stretch my legs and soak in the water.It's like a hot pot bath where you lean on your knees.Yes, a square pot bathThere is no hot spring ingredient list, but I think the water is completely free-flowing from the source, with no heating, water addition, chlorine disinfection, or circulation filtration.It is not the nearby Kanro-no-Yu hot spring, but seems to be a private hot spring with another name.I have always loved the hot springs in Shirahama because of their high quality.This is also probably alkaline with a pH of 9 or higher, and also contains hydrogen carbonate.Hot water of about 40 degrees Celsius is flowing all day long.It was slimy and my favorite spring quality.After bathing, you will feel smooth and stay warm forever.At night, it's great to look at the starry sky while soaking in the hot water.There is no need to use the air conditioner during the season, and it would have been better to turn it off, but you should at least clean the dust properly.I get complaints about allergies when I use the air conditioner.

The temperature of the open-air bath attached to the room is high, so it is better to check and adjust the temperature in advance before preparing to enter.As others have written, I was concerned about the aging of the bathroom.The cloth hanging in the bath? The dirt on the back of the building is starting to bother me, and I'm starting to notice the rattling of the scaffolding and the growth of algae.Although the location is good, there are a lot of things that are a waste.

It's nice to be able to see the ocean in the distance from a slightly elevated place. When you open the door and enter, you will find a Japanese-style room, a bedroom, and an open-air bath in the back. The open-air bath in the guest room is a little old and has a Showa feel, but if you think of it as a part of the atmosphere, it's not a bad thing. The hotel I stayed at, Yurakuan, did not have a room attendant on duty, so you had to return the key to the box at the entrance and check out. Only at check-in, there is a procedure at the front desk located a little far away, but it is nice and easy for people who don't like detailed services.

I made a reservation for the Geminid meteor shower, but had to cancel once due to bad weather. They responded by contacting us to reinstate the reservation by 2:00 pm on the same day.The front desk service was also good.The room wasn't anything special, but it was well-cleaned.The bathtub in the guest room's open-air bath is compact in size.It is better not to approach the wooden door in front of the open air naked (lol)The bed feels a bit like an old business hotel. However, of course it was clean and I slept very well, probably due to the effects of the hot springs.The nearest convenience store 🏪 is 3 minutes by car from Saki no Yu.Since you pay for your stay in advance, all you have to do is return the key to the box in the lobby on your way home.The repetition of soaking in the free-flowing hot springs, lazing around, and eating without worrying about anyone was soothing.It's wallet-friendly and I'd like to come again.

All rooms have open-air baths, so you can relax with your family.Perfect for those who find it difficult to bring small children to the public bath.The building is old, but the room was clean and clean.It can't be helped that it's an open-air bath, but the bath feels a little dated. Since insects and leaves will inevitably get into the bathtub, those who are nervous may want to avoid it.Since the reception is done at the main building, the front desk is unmanned and there is no shop, so please be careful about that.If you need something, we recommend purchasing it in advance.

Although the room is old, it is clean and comfortable ✨This time we stayed in the largest room. The two of us were able to relax and relax ☺ We took the open-air bath many times and enjoyed the hot springs to the fullest ✨ We bought meals at Toretore Market and Okuwa and can eat them whenever we wanted 😋 Since this is a room only for overnight stays, there is no cooking space. It's still convenient to have one, though 💦It was more comfortable to sleep on the Muatu futon mattress than on the bed💕

The cleaning was thorough and there was a sense of cleanliness.However, due to its age, the air conditioner makes a strange rattling noise at night, and there are no employees, so I felt that the cost performance was high.The room had a bed and a mattress, and the mattress was a Muatu futon, so it was very nice.
