A detached inn with an open-air bath located in Furuyu.The price is a bit high, but the rooms are spacious and clean, and the open-air bath is very pleasant. The temperature is the best and you won't get tired of it no matter how many times you go in (just be careful because it's slippery).The food, including the appetizers, is delicious. It was my first time to eat such delicious bamboo shoots. Also, I thought my stomach would burst from the double punch of Saga beef steak and Saga beef shabu-shabu.You can also taste and compare sake. I drank Nabeshima's Blossoms Moon, and it was an incredibly delicious drink to pair with the food.The road is narrow, so access to the parking lot is a little difficult, but I was able to get there in my MAZDA SUV without any problems.Overall it was a very good stay. I still want to use it.

The room was spacious and I was able to relax in a quiet mountain setting. The hot springs were pleasant, and the cypress bath in the room 😃🛀♨️ was relaxing while looking at the stars. However, the access road is narrow so you have to be careful. Maybe you can get there from another route! The food was delicious and filling. 😊

I love the food at this inn and have been here several times, and every time I go, I always get really delicious food.My husband's favorite is the set where you can enjoy three types of alcohol. There is a wide variety of local sake, and it looks like you will have a lot of fun choosing it.I also appreciate the casual and warm hospitality.

Overall it's good, but the shower area in the room is open-air. . It’s freezing in the winter. .The indoor open-air hot spring automatically releases water after 30 minutes. You need to press it before soaking. If you press it, the hot spring water will freeze and dry out. .In short, it’s a pity that you can’t dip it anytime. 🥲The food was pretty good. Teden chose the Saga beef and pork SABUSABU, which were delicious and generous.Saga beef is very delicious, and the braised pork is also good😌
