+Hot spring was good! Room was sufficiently warm in the early winter.
−Rooms had poor sound insulation. It was quite cold on the corridor to the shared toilet and bath in winter.

“A fun place to stay at”
+The onsen was lovely. For some reason it felt novel to staying overnight at a public onsen, so it felt fun to come out after the day guests have left and have free run of the place. The next morning we enjoyed the onsen first thing in the morning, such a luxury.

“Superb”
+Small onsen with 7 rooms for overnight stay. The baths are simple but clean and with very nice water that leaves your skin feeling soft. During the day the onsen can also be visited as a day guest (500 yen), but after 20h the baths and central tatami hall are just for the night guests. Friendly staff and serene mountainous environment. Recommended!

“Exceptional”
+The location is great, it's in a quaint small rural town with a rich history and a variety of options for excursions. Great view and amenities in the hot spring itself. The owner, Tomo, and his family were some of the most friendly people we met on our travels. When we first arrived at the bus station due to a variety of train cancellations, they even offered us a ride once we arrived. They were so warm and welcoming to us. We felt like we were at home. Highly highly highly recommend!

“Worth a detour when you're in the area!”
+Really competitive pricing. You can use the onsen after regular guest hours, and as there are only 3-4 rooms for guest so the onsen is pretty much a private experience. Book early to secure the room!! The general staff won't be able to speak English but the onsen owner has really good English (he took his master's in UK). All are extremely friendly though! Room was really clean and the futon was more comfortable than our other hotel beds!
−It's far from civilization which is a pro and con on its own. Really quiet, little people, and extremely peaceful. You'll need a car to get here, but the area is pretty much very suitable for a roadtrip!

+Nichée au cœur de la campagne japonaise, notre jolie auberge est un véritable petit havre de paix. Ici, tout est calme, entouré de forêt et de nature… exactement ce qu’il nous fallait après toutes nos journées de découverte. L’auberge est d’une propreté irréprochable, avec ses beaux tatamis et cette ambiance japonaise traditionnelle qui nous plonge complètement dans le décor. Et le petit bonheur en plus : un onsen public pour se détendre après la route. Après 20h, jusqu’à 23h, ou très tôt le matin, on peut profiter tranquillement de l’espace dans une atmosphère paisible. Le petit plus que j’adore : sa terrasse avec vue sur la forêt… se poser là, au calme, avec la nature autour de nous, c’est juste magique. Une vraie parenthèse japonaise, simple, authentique et reposante… on ne pouvait pas rêver mieux pour cette étape.

“Machen !”
+Der Natur Onsen wirkt wunder ! Wer Japan liebt, wird hier das Echte und Wahre Japan kennen lernen. Mit Tieren als Nachbarn welche man sonst nur aus dem Zoo kennt. Eine kurze Traum Zugreise von Niigata entfernt. Tip : machen ! Sehr herzlicher Empfang..... Komme gerne wieder.......
−Ich hätte mir Aussen Liegestühle im Onsen ( von dort Traumblick in die Berge ) gewünscht :)
