貸切露天風呂が最高でした！

貸切の露天風呂がとてもよかったです。卓球やオセロもあり、若いカップルに丁度いいと思いました。夜は星空、朝は日の出が素晴らしかったです。 黒川温泉には車で20分くらいなので、そこの雰囲気も楽しむことができました。 飲食店が周りに殆どないので、その点は気をつけた方が良いと思います。

旅店周圍環境清幽

旅店位於深山中，有開車自駕者前往，建議太陽下山前入住，因路上沒什麼路燈，且晚上視線不佳不好找路～ 旅店附近無超商、餐廳，建議吃飽飯再入住～ 有免費的公共戶外、室內溫泉♨️

遠離煩囂的旅館

由於入夜天黑了才駕車，大部分是漆黑的山路，所以有一定的難度。本來預算可在零光污染下欣賞繁星，可惜天氣很差，又雨又霧，令預期觀星願望落空。幸好露天私人風呂，也算是意外驚喜。旅館主人是韓國人，很友善。要注意有餐廳但只開星期六。入住當住有近百隻小飄蟲在天花，幸好我們沒有給嚇倒⋯⋯

剛好當天只有我們2個的BOOKING，變了好像包場的樣子，很棒 室內溫泉也可以做到半露天的感覺~ 而且24小時開放 風景望出一片綠色，很有一種深山小屋Feel，好像被大自然包圍了 :) 晚上有一望無際的星空，美得很~ 房間很大，也極之乾淨，周圍設施都可自由使用 美中不足的是一樓的房間是沒有房內廁所，要走出去，半夜也即時凍醒

A Gem Tucked in the Woods!!

We stayed at the Akagawa Onsen Spaju as a base to visit the Aso and Kuju regions and the hotel was all we expected. It was quiet and slightly off the touristy centers, with an outdoor as well as an indoor onsen. Set off the main road into the woods, it gave a certain charm. The check in was quick and friendly as we were the only guests at the time. Choose a room with a balcony overlooking the meadow, as those would have a nice view. We would definitely recommend this hotel

Isolated guest house with indoor and outdoor onsen

Host very friendly, accommodating. But on-site restaurant advertised is only open on Saturdays, and the dining at the hotel across the road is very basic, with last order 7:30 pm. No breakfast, either!
