It's a great place for a quiet rest.The open-air bath in the room was spacious, clean, and had just the right temperature.No matter how many times I went in, I never got tired of the scent of sulfur that wasn't too strong and the soft water quality.The meal may not be extravagant, but it's filling enough, and the dishes are light on the body, focusing on seafood and vegetables that bring out the flavor of the ingredients, making you feel healthy.You can also taste various local specialties.Among the drinks, plum wine (rock) was very delicious.It's a great place to take a walk around the area and relax.Next time I want to stay for 2 nights.

It was my first time to use the hot springs at Iroha Ryokan.It was an old-fashioned structure.The hot springs felt good.There was also an open-air bath, but what surprised me was that when I entered it, there were pebbles under my feet.It felt like a good stimulation to the soles of my feet.Even after taking a bath, I felt warm all the time.

♨️ Drop-in bath for 400 yen The warm water of Ueki Onsen along the Koshi River charms me and I'm in love with it 😊 Each facility has a different temperature, so it's a good idea to look for the one you prefer 👍️ The indoor bath is high temperature (45℃). You can choose between medium temperature (42℃) and low temperature (37℃).For medium temperature, you can also enjoy a 3-minute jacuzzi.The open-air bath (41℃) is covered with gravel and at first glance it looks like a spring water pond, but it is important to note that your feet will be buried when you enter the water. Caution: Maybe it's due to buoyancy, but it doesn't feel too uncomfortable even if you lower your hips.If you are tall or have a high sitting height, please dig into the gravel about 10cm deep and adjust it. ️By the way, from 2016 (Heisei 28), sitting height has been excluded from the physical examination items at schools❌The reason is that there is no meaning in measuring it.It is because short legs lead to teasing and bullying...I wonder what it was until now 🤔 Bamboo Grove The sun blocks the setting sun and the breeze feels comfortable outdoors 👍️Locker 💴100 Fully equipped with amenities

The drop-in open-air bath is lined with gravel and has a nostalgic feel, like sitting on an old riverbed.After,

An inn where you can be bratty when meeting someone for the first time, and be very rude to guests. ! I'll never go again

I stop by and use the bath about once a year. Something new every time, clean and comfortable. If you warm up in an elegant open-air bath or hot water before entering the lukewarm bath, you will feel the thickening sensation. Leave your body to the hot water and you will feel the best relaxation! ! Does it feel thicker when you wash your body with soap rather than body soap? Since it is a natural hot spring, I feel that the quality of the spring water varies slightly depending on the day.

I was surprised by the door to the bathroom, but the hot water was nice. I'm thankful that the hot water and lukewarm water are separated.

I used it as a drop-in bath. The bottom of the open-air bath is covered with sand and gravel, which is very pleasant and provides just the right amount of stimulation for your feet. The quality of hot spring water is also the best 🍀

Even though the accommodation fee is cheap, there is an open-air bath.It's nice to stay in a room with a bath.

I stayed in a room with an open-air bath, and the hospitality was great.The room itself isn't that great, but the bath is slippery and you can always take a bath!The meal was filling, and we also had the famous white ohagi to finish it off.I have stayed at three inns at Ueki Onsen so far, and all were excellent.I don't recommend it to people who are looking for high-class cuisine, but I do recommend it to people who like a friendly, frank and homely atmosphere.The prices are reasonable and the quality of the hot springs is top notch.
