Happy Hour All-You-Can-Drink and SKY Spa

I briefly used the spa, and bringing your own dinner is allowed. I thought only beer was all-you-can-drink, but there was also a great selection of other alcohol. Shochu, whisky, and I got hooked on mango liqueur. I had seven glasses of Asahi Super Dry. The spa alternates between men and women by time slot. The indoor bath only had toothbrushes, so you basically have to go to the spa. Breakfast also offers many options with a focus on vegetables; I ate early, then went to the spa right before checkout—an open location with a 360° panoramic view. On a weekday it was almost private. This kind of service is rare, and the value for money is excellent. From Shizuoka Station, it’s about 30 minutes on Shizutetsu Justline (IKYU’s guide says North Exit bus stop No. 11, but it was actually No. 14 in front of Hotel Associa), and the bus stop is close so it’s convenient to use. It works out much cheaper than staying in central Shizuoka City, so I already have plans for next time and will be returning again.
