Judging from the price, you might think it's a reasonable price, but the sound of the sliding sliding doors and the sliding door of the toilet can be loud in the middle of the night. It was very uncomfortable to see people walking in a rough manner passing through the hallway. It all sounds as if it's coming from your own room. My companion was also woken up by the sound. Well, it depends on the kind of people staying there.It's a shame because I wanted to spend my time in a quiet atmosphere.If you don't mind those things, I think it's a very nice place to stay.The hot springs and scenery were amazing.

This is a quiet inn with a nice atmosphere.The bath and food were really good.Since there are only 6 groups per day, most of the baths are reserved for private use.The inn's signature udon noodles are delicious!The owner's handmade udon noodles are chewy and go well with the red miso.I was a little surprised because there was so much food that I couldn't finish it all.Check-out is until 10am, so it's a good place to leave early.This is a ryokan that I would like to use again when I come to Minakami Town.

As a hot spring inn that includes one night and two meals, it was a very cheap and nice inn. First of all, the rice is very luxurious. Women are more satisfied than they can eat, and men are satisfied because they are full. The inn is limited to 6 groups per day, but the facilities are spacious and you won't have to worry about other guests. If you make a reservation from the official website, you can check in early, so you can enjoy the open-air bath in advance. A peaceful rural landscape spreads out outside your room, and you can enjoy the starry sky at night and the sunrise in the morning. The temperature of the bath is not too hot, so you can take a relaxing soak. The people staying at the inn are friendly and there is a sense of security and warmth that makes you feel like you are back at home. It was an inn I would like to stay at again.

It's a small inn, more like a guesthouse. There were only 5 rooms in operation, the bathroom was always reserved for private use, and I never met any of my fellow guests.The best part was the bath, followed by the meal, so I think the cost performance is very good. This may be a low rating for those who want a clean room, but for us it was fine, and the room with a relaxing view of the countryside was fine.The bath wasn't hot, but I could stay in it for a long time, and it was still warm when I woke up in the morning. The hot water is very warm.The meals were home-cooked, carefully prepared, and very satisfying. The incision was also delicious. Since there isn't much alcohol available, I guess it's okay to bring in your own food for a fee.Sarugakyo Onsen was very nice.
