Indoor tent was an interesting concept. Tent gave some privacy and the mattress was comfy enough. For guests the 1st floor onsen and shower was available 24h a day.

テントで予約しましたが、受付の際、プラス千円で個室もご用意出来ますとご提案いただき、とても疲れていたので有り難く個室に変更してもらいました。個室だとタオル、浴衣なども付いていますしかなりお得だったと思います。 女性のお客様が少ない日だった様で夜と朝温泉に入りましたがどちらも貸切で大変贅沢させていただきました。とても寒い日でしたが館内も、脱衣所もとても暖かいしてあり有り難かったです。二軒隣ぐらいにあった和食屋さんも海鮮が美味しくお手頃でした。

大部屋でこテント泊は初体験。 古い旅館ですが、全体なか不衛生感はありません。 テント室は２階にあるが館内にエレベーターがないので上階は階段が大変そう。 一部画像に展望浴場が出ているが実際には一階に定員7人が男女×1。他上階に家族風呂(1000¥の看板あり←何故か“¥”が後ろ)、稼働しているか疑問。 流石に湯量と泉質は良かった。

Perfect verblijf voor een zachte prijs!

Dit is een veel te net hotel voor de prijs die wij moesten betalen. Het slapen in de tent was apart maar werkte verassend goed! Tot nu toe zijn wij geen betere futons tegengekomen in Japan. De prive onsen is uitstekend vooral gezien het bij de prijs is inbegrepen. Het personeel was erg lief en behulpzaam (ookal was communicatie soms lastig gezien zij amper Engels spraken). Alles is erg net en schoon, maar ziet er daarnaast ook wonderschoon uit. Ik zou hier zo nogmaals verblijven.
