Stayed the day before climbing Mt. Norikura24,600 yen for 3 people for 1 night with dinner during ObonBuildings and rooms that are showing their age overallIt was difficult to adjust the temperature of the shower in the wild bath, but it was nice to have a bath with yunohana dance.However, I couldn't use the open-air bath because it was too wild. It was on almost the same floor as the bath, so the inside of the room had a very sulfuric feel to it. It was like Manza Onsen.Dinner has many items. You can also have handmade soba noodles.The next day I was due to leave at 5am, so I paid the day before and left quietly.

Meal◎, Bath△, Room△The rice was very delicious and excellent.The hot springs can be reserved for private use, so it's nice to be able to relax, but it feels old. I don't think it's possible for people to focus on having a clean bathroom.The room feels like the bare minimum.I think this price is reasonable.

When I inquired about making a reservation, I was told that children were not allowed. The official website also lists children's rates and Q&A for small children, but they say they are not currently accepting reservations.Of course, children are a source of noise, so I don't mind if they refuse due to the circumstances of the accommodation, and I understand that, but I told them that the information on the official website should be changed, but they don't seem to have any intention of doing so.It is difficult to find accommodations that allow children, so please do not include false information.I received a response that they would accept reservations for other children, but I don't think the other children would be disappointed since they refused for the first child, but they don't seem to notice the discrepancy. I thought it was a good hotel and wanted to make a reservation, and there were a lot of positive comments, so it's a shame.The official website contains intentionally false information, so if you are attracted to the charm of this inn and want to make a reservation, we recommend that you call us to confirm that it is true.

The hot springs are very good. Although the building is old, it has been updated and has a clean feel. There are stairs to go up and down to get to the hot spring facility in the annex, but some of the stairs don't have railings, so they may be dangerous for elderly people. The food is not fancy, but it is prepared with great effort.Although opinions vary from person to person, it seems that the majority are mountain climbers.

Although it is an old building and facilities, it is kept very clean. The building is located in a secluded area and is very quiet and calm.The husband and wife are friendly and kind.The bath was lukewarm. Warmth that you can stay in for a long time. It is said that it is being heated. Since it's summer, I think it's around 38-9 degrees Celsius. In winter, the temperature will probably be a little higher. The smell of sulfur is irresistible. A small bath for 2 to 3 people. The open-air bath has a capacity of 1 to 2 people. This one was way too lukewarm. 37~8℃? It's better to warm it up a little more.I bathed 5 times during my one night stay. It was such a good bath. Bathing available 24 hours.My husband said to me, ``It's hot this summer, and there are a lot of insects.Even if you have a screened door, a lot of small insects will come in.So in the evening, please close the windows completely and use the air conditioner.'' It was given to me. It feels very nice.There is no refrigerator in the room, but there is a shared refrigerator in the bathroom. There is also a tea and hot water server. There is also a shared hair dryer in the washroom.It's a nice inn that has the scent of the Showa era and makes you want to come back again.

Even during Golden Week, you can benefit from the same rate plan as on weekdays. It is a beautiful hot spring with beautiful hot springs. The handmade soba noodles at dinner were also very delicious.
