I stayed in the most expensive room. It's all-inclusive, with my room in the basement and the first floor, but the server with beer and highballs is on the first floor, so I have to either climb the stairs to get it or drink in the room where the server is. There are two hot springs in my room, one is a normal bath inside the room and the other is outside, but the outside wall is surrounded by boards so I can't see any view. Neither are hot springs. I didn't tell the staff because I wouldn't go there again, but each room has an air conditioner, but even though there's only one remote control, it only responds to the air conditioner in the bedroom, so the rest of the room was extremely hot. I am troubled. We recommend opening all the brans.The part where you wash your hands in the toilet is so low that it touches your waist...For this price, I think you'll be more satisfied if you stay somewhere higher up around Chichibu Station.
