Hotel Analysis
Based on 2 sites · 607 reviews
A small-scale minshuku-style lodging in Yufuin. Guest reviews frequently mention the charm of the onsen and its cleanliness.
Across multiple booking sites, comments like 'the natural onsen makes skin smooth' and 'private use by time slots' are common. The cozy futons in tatami rooms and grandmother's house-like coziness are also praised. Many note the owners' kindness.
However, it's a distance from Yufuin Station, so bus or rental car is recommended. Some mention thin walls for noise, hot onsen water, and shared bathrooms feeling unfamiliar.
Great value for onsen lovers, couples, or families.
