I came to stay overnight to check out the wiring at Yamato Saidaiji Station, but it was the worst.

I used it for a day trip bath when I was staying at Kanpo no Yado.Nara doesn't have many hot springs or outdoor bath facilities, so it's nice to have a facility like this that you can take a day trip to.

I used it for the day trip hot spring lunch plan.The hot springs have mellow water in both an open-air bath and an indoor bath. Your skin will become smooth. There is no cold bath or sauna. The latest massage machine feels great.Lunch was a saury set meal. The ordinary salted swordfish was salty and the rice went well. The rice was delicious. I enjoyed the hot springs and the atmosphere. Lunch was the cheapest course, but it was reasonably priced. The salty saury fish on the lunch menu is the only one ⭐, but it's perfect for relaxing 👌❗

I used it in June. There seems to be a shuttle service from the station, but the time was not right and it was a little far from the station, so it was a bit difficult.For dinner, I ordered a single sashimi kaiseki meal, and it was delicious.The bath was small, but it was reserved for private use, so I was able to relax.
