Yusaka Onsenkyo Kamogawaso

Welcome drinks, especially the cold sake, were a delightful touch appreciated by the host. Although the walk to the bath was a bit long, guests could choose their yukata, and the men's and women's baths alternated daily for added variety. The Room was a spacious Japanese-Western style, and dinner was served in just the right portions. After check-out, guests could relax in the lobby or garden at their leisure.

I stayed the night before my plans in Takehara as it was my first time using this service. Since I had planned to go to a lunch buffet with friends the next day, I appreciated having a dinner-only option. The Room was on the same floor as families, and they kept their doors open while talking loudly until nearly midnight, which was noisy. The Room seemed close to the elevator, so I could hear noises and woke up early; however, this allowed me to enjoy an early morning bath. I enjoyed tasting different types of sake and found the peach juice delicious as well. It was nice that I got to see fireflies after hearing people at a nearby table talk about them. Thank you very much!
