  • I stayed here during my first trip to Kumano Sanzan. The room was a single, and the interior design was quite unique, but it was fine just for sleeping. I enjoyed the onsen at Matsuya, as well as the onsen, open-air bath, and even a quick dip in the river at Midoriya. The free-flowing hot spring water was amazing! Breakfast at Midoriya was plentiful and delicious. It was an incredibly affordable stay with breakfast included in a single room. I would love to stay here again!
