It's hot inside the hotel, it's really hot. There was no air conditioner in the room, making it difficult to sleep at night. It's hard not having air conditioning on days when the temperature gets close to 25 degrees Celsius. There is no screen door, so the windows cannot be opened. The changing room in the bathroom is also steamed with two small fans. There was no air conditioning at all in the dining hall, so we ate deliciously piping hot food such as ramen and sweet potato stew while sweating profusely. The food itself is of high quality both in the evening and in the morning.

We stayed here for my child's birthday. I had a very comfortable stay. I had carp arai for the first time at a buffet, and it was delicious with no odor or taste at all. There is a live kitchen with a bell to let you know when the food is freshly prepared, so it was nice to be able to eat freshly made food anytime. Also, the hot springs were very nice, but the washing area was full of bathers, so it would have been nice to know how crowded the public bath was. It was a very memorable stay. I would like to visit you again.

I stopped by for a bath on the way back from shopping at Costco in Kaminoyama. |The parking lot is across the street. …

It was a day trip, but it wasn't that good. It was a gathering of neighbors, about 10 of us. The food starts from 8,000 yen for a day trip, but there are many small dishes that cost about 500 yen coins, but no matter how you look at it, the dishes cost about 6,000 yen.The bath starts at 1:00 pm, and there is a banquet in the afternoon. I didn't take a bath because I drank. I saw soba at a shop that looked delicious, but when I came home and tried it, it was powdery and didn't taste like soba at all. Also, is there really that much of a difference between a 5,000 yen shuttle fee, 3,000 yen for a rest room, and a day-tripper compared to someone staying overnight? I won't be going again, but it's a disappointing hotel.

My husband and I went in April. Last November, my younger sister and niece were with me, and my parents were also with relatives.I went there and it was my favorite hotel. When I first got a room with twin beds, there was a desk next to the bed, and under the desk near the pillow was a big, ordinary safe from the Showa era. When I came back from the bathroom in the middle of the night, I couldn't see the bed and didn't touch it, so I went straight to the floor. At that time, I hit my forehead with the corner of the safe. I tried to call an ambulance, but they just kept waiting. I thought I shouldn't cause any trouble. My forehead is still sunken. Most hotel safes are small and hidden, so this is impossible.Should I change the installation location in the future? I told the receptionist that I was not in charge of the room. . . and. When I emailed them a few days later, there was no response. It's a shame because the staff at the restaurant were very nice and the food was great.Still, I will go again next month. Because the food was that good. The twin bed room had a gap between it and the next room, and the morning sun was shining through the gap so brightly. I don't expect anything from the room. Costco is nearby, so I just go there because the food is good.
