I stayed overnight with breakfast included.The three-story wooden building is a quaint building, and I felt that it had a quality that cannot be expressed with modern space-saving and high efficiency.The room felt old, but it was kept clean and I felt safe.There are a variety of handmade folk crafts in the museum, which will stir up your wanderlust.There are two indoor hot spring baths, including a circular bathtub, a public bathtub, and a square bathtub for private use.Both types of hot water were clear and had no peculiarities, but they warmed up nicely.The meals, both dinner and breakfast, were not luxurious, but they were homemade and made using local ingredients and were very delicious.Also, the hostess's various considerations are very good!I would like to go again 😊

I stayed here as a solo traveler. This is a three-story wooden hot spring inn built in the Showa period, located in front of the public bath. The room had a retro feel, but was clean and relaxing. …

There are 7 rooms, so you can enjoy the hot water without having to meet too many other guests.There is also one hot spring bath for private use, and separate hot springs for men and women.I had a small course of 8 dishes, but it was so voluminous that it made me feel sick to my stomach.The breakfast was so plentiful that I couldn't eat lunch anymore.The room was spacious and very nice.There are many air conditioners, kotatsus, fan heaters, and space heaters in the rooms, so this is a recommended stay even during the cold winter months.

I made a reservation through Rakuten Travel.The room was on the 3rd floor in Ariake.There is no elevator, so I used the stairs. This inn does not use slippers. So going up and down the stairs was easy.There was no toilet in the room, so I used the toilet between the 2nd and 3rd floors. It was comfortable with a modern toilet.Meals were served in a private room on the second floor.When the requested time arrived, the young hostess came to the room and informed us.Since it was a business plan, the number of dishes was small, but the quantity was sufficient. The sashimi and breakfast egg rolls were delicious. There was coffee service after breakfast.The hot spring is on the first floor.The large public baths for men and women are shared with the inn next door.I used the private bath, which does not require reservations. The water temperature was a little lower than the public bath and it was easy to get into.The shampoos provided in the bathroom had a very nice scent.The parking lot is located directly behind the inn.4 cars can be parked on the first floor of the building.It was a little narrow so it was difficult to park in reverse.I was able to relax in a spacious and quiet room.

It is decorated with many handmade folk crafts and blends in with the townscape and atmosphere of the inn. I was traveling alone, but I had two rooms that were connected to each other. Because there are many stairs, you can use the bath on the first floor overnight, but it may be a little difficult to get there. The toilet is spacious!

The bright young proprietress is very friendly and nice. I've never seen towels with the name of an inn written on carefully embroidered thread! That alone will become a keepsake that you will cherish✨🧵🪡The bath is small, but retro, and the hot water is as gentle as a futon, making it a relaxing and soft hot spring♨️💖😌

The food was absolutely delicious. Unfortunately, the bathtub was small. Also, I was disappointed that I couldn't use the public bath. I hope it ends soon
