Fujinoyu Ebisuya

Very authentic accommodation, no WiFi, traditional small bathhouse, 7-11 and restaurants nearby. Opposite the accommodation is Couple Rock. It is very cool even if you open the window at night in June, so you need to cover yourself with a quilt.

3 minutes walk from Yunokami Onsen Station, very convenient for those using the train. An inn run by an elderly couple (mainly the husband). We no longer offer half board, only a choice of breakfast included or no meals. There are no restaurants in the area, but there is a 7-Eleven about a 10-minute walk away. The ``open-air bath'' for sale is located down the stairs from across the road in front of the inn. It's large enough to accommodate about 6 people, full of wild nature, and offers a great view of the mountain stream and Meoto Iwa, but when I visited, the water was lukewarm and only warmed up after soaking for about an hour. There is also a ``private bath'' next door, large enough for three people, but still lukewarm. Borrow the key at the front desk and enter. The indoor bath is large enough for about 6 people, and the temperature is just right. Bath towels are available for rental (200 yen). The comforter was cotton and quite heavy, and it felt cold at night even in mid-October. There is a gas fan heater in the room, but it is centrally controlled and was not operating during the night when we visited. The room has a toilet with a washing machine. However, there is no refrigerator or kettle (and even a microwave), which are placed in the hallway as common equipment. Although the inn is somewhat inconvenient, I guess I should just concentrate on enjoying the bath without expecting too much.
