📆2024-March staggered posting🙇♀️The hotel itself is currently under renovation, but day trip bathing is possible.I was able to come in just the day before construction started🙇♀️I'm not good with cats, so I passed the number of baths on my first digital trip 🙇♀️This time, the cat was quiet inside the building😆It was my first time to enter the bathhouse on the same floor as the front desk.I was stunned by the really good hot springs😆If something like this had happened, I should have gone here instead of passing last time...I was thinking to myself as I enjoyed the hot springs🥰I would like to visit again when it is newly renovated 🎵🍀 Sodium, calcium, magnesium, hydrogen carbonate hot springs (hypotonic, neutral, high temperature springs)

I used it on December 2023 for 400 yen. I stopped by and used it.There seems to be a first floor and a second floor, which one is warmer?I was told that the second floor would be better, so I chose the second floor.After taking a bath, I spoke with the successor. I would like to stay there after the renovation. (And he's a nice guy) The hot spring was a private hot spring.

It stands just beside the river and is surrounded by beautiful mountains. Unforgettable Japanese traditional Onsen experience. Guest rooms and toilets are fully renovated and it's very comfortable for all kinds of traveling style from family to solo traveler. The owner can speak English fluently and they are very supportive of your visit. It is located less than a half hour driving from Kagoshima Airport where it's very easy to access when you fly in out from there. It's possible to reach there from Kagoshima City by using the local train ride too. Highly recommended, wish to visit there again soon!!

It was my first time using it. The. It is a spa. This is a system where we bring our own food, prepare it, and eat it ourselves. So I didn't have to worry about time, I ate whenever I wanted and took a bath whenever I wanted. There is a shared toilet (very clean!) and a kitchen (may not be suitable for those who are particular about hygiene).It is a sodium hot spring with free-flowing water that can be bathed 24 hours a day.It seems that the inside of the building is undergoing some renovation work.

Male in his 30s I've been there for the first time in a while with my relatives since I was a kid, but the hot spring ingredients are completely different from the hot springs in Oita and other places.It's cloudy and smells like sulfur.It's a real hot spring.The nearby river has a nice view, and the hotel has a bath along the river, so that's good too.The inn is old, just as it was back then, but it was an irreplaceable place in my life and it was very nice.This inn has been around since the end of the war and has a long history, so please come and visit us for a day trip, a standing bath, or an overnight stay.There are many places where you can go shopping if you go a little further, so if you stay overnight without meals and cook your own meals 🙆🏻

The hot spring water quality is good, and new water is always flowing into the hot spring pool.The price is excellent, you can come to the hot spring every day♨️The kitchen looks old, but you can cook yourself, and there is spring water right out of the faucet, so there is no need to buy mineral water hahahaThe toilet has just been renovated and is very new.The hot spring pavilion is not easy to find, and the parking lot is secluded.There are many cats waiting to be discovered

Myokenkan is where you will be greeted by a friendly cat.There is no one at the reception desk, just a box to put 300 yen in. Although I was a little disappointed, I took a bath.On a day trip bath:There are two indoor baths where you can change your clothes before moving. Although both buildings are quite old, they are hot springs that you will want to support. Both indoor baths have cold water baths, and the open-air bath (you can see the river and bridge from the window) is crisp and the alternating baths are pleasant.The path made of tiles leading to the open air is mysterious.

Although the facility is quite old, the hot water is good.Perhaps the owner is very personable and when I told him it was my first time, he kindly explained to me.There seems to be a cat, but unfortunately it seems like he's out.
