The inn is fed by natural hot spring water and the customer service is good, so if you have a vacation, you'll want to stay there for several nights.The spring quality is quite alkaline, making your skin smooth. The water temperature is low and you can stay in the hot spring for a long time. There is also a heated hot spring.Recommended for those who want to relax and get away from the hustle and bustle of the city.The food is also delicious. Steak is recommended!

A truly relaxing indoor bath inn.As you float slowly in the warm water, you will feel the fatigue wash away.For dinner, the drinks were delicious with a menu that tickled the spirits of drinkers.My visit was in mid-July. It may be lukewarm, but rather than soaking in the water thoroughly during lunch, it's more like going in and out repeatedly. The temperature dropped in the evening, so even in summer, I was able to soak in the water.Next time, I would like to stay for more nights and stay more relaxed.

The friendly and cheerful owner said that it was a miraculous excavation.In the hot springs fed directly from the source, temperatures reach 40 degrees Celsius.It has a slight sulfur smell and has a smooth texture.The silver ring I was wearing was completely blackened.I also encountered it by chance, but it is a really nice hot spring.

A normal inn. The room was clean. The rice was delicious. There is one smoking area. The futon has improved in grade compared to last year!There was also a wanted photo posted, but since Satoshi Kirishima has already been found, I think it would be better to delete it. Even he wanted to end it with Satoshi Kirishima.

A lotion-like hot water with a pH of over 9 is poured over the bath at a suitable temperature. There are two types of hot springs, but Shika-no-yu in particular was extremely fresh because it was right in front of the source. The water is heated to an insensitive temperature, so you can take a long, relaxing bath to relieve fatigue. The impression is similar to Okayama's Maga Onsen and Okutsu Onsen.

I learned about Yuki Onsen because it was listed in ``Tsuge Yoshiharu's Hot Springs'' (2003, Catalog House). The first photo is of the large-roofed inn, Igetaya, which is currently out of business. When Boxwood arrived, it had a thatched roof, and it looked like the inn that Boxwood would like. The second photo was taken just as it was in the book, and was taken at a lower part of Yamagataya, the inn that manages the rock bath.As I grew fond of hot springs, I started going to Izumiya, the inn closest to the Yuki bus stop (not the Yuki Onsen entrance), every time. This is largely because you can access the hot spring bath without going outside. Also, for this accommodation fee, delicious meals are provided as shown in the attached photo. You can choose a room with a toilet, and you can also request a room on the first floor where you can access the bathtub without using the stairs.By the way, the bathtub at the back of Izumiya is called Yawata no Yu. I believe that this Yahata hot spring was originally a mixed bathing area, but was partitioned to separate men and women. I hope that people will keep this in mind and understand this when they come to visit us. Am I the only one who thinks that if the facility, food, or service wasn't what I had imagined, I didn't do my research properly? I hope that hot spring inns like Izumiya will continue to operate.

Second visit to Yuki Onsen. ||Last time we went to Yamagataya and this time we went to Izumiya. ||There are two inns next to each other, so if you have time, you might want to go up the ladder. …

I arrived about an hour earlier than check-in time. There was nothing around and it was cold even though I was waiting in the car.I heard from another person that they were willing to check in an hour early, so I asked them and they said, ``In addition to the accommodation fee, there will be a one-day bathing fee.'' "If you pay me 1100 yen..." he said. I was wondering if I should pay 1,100 yen in addition to the accommodation fee and check in an hour early or wait in the car, but it was cold so I decided to pay.I think it's natural for me to pay because I check in early for my own convenience, but I got the impression that it's not uniform whether you take it or not.I thought there would be a separate bath for men and women in addition to the mixed bath, so I made a reservation with confidence, but the separate bath for men and women is small, with only one bath divided into sections, and the dividing board goes all the way to the water surface, so the inside of the bath is... I can see it. When I asked the person at the hostel, ``Even if you say it's separate for men and women, you can still see it, right?'' and he said, ``There's only one section with hot water, so I'm sorry. Don't go to the center, go to the corner. ``I don't think there will be anyone diving to watch it today because there are only elderly people there, but if you see any men diving, please let me know!''In such a state, I couldn't feel safe taking a bath, so I ended up going there just for the hot water, but I only went there twice during the women-only time, and no other times in the morning.The entrance to the room is a single sliding door with a lattice-like wooden sliding door in front of the sliding door, and although it is designed to be locked, the lattice-like structure means that it can be easily opened from the outside. And since it's a sliding door, there's no soundproofing.As for the food, the sashimi had a bad color and smell, and the fried food was freshly fried, but the Mexicali was soggy and wet, and the white rice was lumpy in places. My personal impression was that the seasonings for both dinner and breakfast were made by someone who is not a good cook.The room was warm, but the hallway was cold, and I couldn't take a bath to warm myself up, so I had no choice but to get into my futon and sleep.I was hesitant about booking two nights because of the good reviews, but decided to give it a try and ended up staying for one night, and I'm glad I did.

You can enjoy the best hot spring water and food.This is a family-run inn.The temperature of the hot spring is slightly lukewarm, so you can stay in it for a long time.Gentle on your skin and makes your skin smooth.Meals are served in private rooms.There is also a TV in the dining room.There is a kotatsu in the room, and the futon is super fluffy.One thing to be aware of is that if you are going by bus from the nearest station, you will need to take a taxi as buses do not run on Saturdays and Sundays.The hot springs, food, and customer service were the best!
