Izumiya Ryokan' Tawarayama Onsen

It's good to learn about Japanese traditions, and the staff is very friendly. The food is also very delicious. However, there is no hot spring, so I had to go to a nearby hot spring, but the water was good. There is no refrigerator in the room, so it's inconvenient to drink beer.

It's a cozy ryokan. The facilities are good and the scenery is also very nice. There is a good hot spring nearby Breakfast is also delicious However, there are only washing facilities. You have to use the hot springs to shower. Hot springs can be used at local hot springs for a fee. The restroom is available for public use.

The inns at Tawarayama Onsen have an outdoor bath system, with Machi-no-Yu and Byakko-no-Yu, and in winter you head to the baths in your traditional Japanese kimono. The hot spring town has a small stone-paved road that is just wide enough for one car to pass, with several inns on either side, giving it a nice atmosphere. Izumiya Ryokan is located near Machi-no-Yu, and the food is homely yet delicious, with fresh sashimi and fish dishes, making it a recommended inn that will make you want to drink alcohol. The toilets are shared and have a shower, and the only downside is that the futon is thin and feels cold. This was my second time staying here, so I stuck my futon in the kotatsu this time to keep myself warm, so there were no problems both nights.

The room was well cleaned, and even though it was a 6 tatami room, it felt spacious with a corridor. The food looks beautiful and delicious, and if it's under 10,000 yen, it's perfect. The only disappointment was the futon, which was uncomfortable because it was the only one without a mattress. I wanted to give a rating of 5, but I gave it a 4 because of the demerit points for the mattress.
