Bath Variety & Quality ★★★☆☆
The artificial hot spring public bath is simple, but more than sufficient for relieving fatigue after a day of travel. While it does not offer the variety or scale of a full-fledged hot spring facility, the combination of affordable accommodation and the ability to enjoy a hot spring-style bath makes it a very satisfying option.
Rather than a place to slowly indulge in a hot spring experience, it is best viewed as a way to help your tired body recover by making use of the benefits of hot spring minerals after a long day of sightseeing.
*An artificial hot spring is created by circulating hot water through a special system containing natural stones infused with hot spring minerals, allowing those mineral components to be extracted into the water.
