Yunosawa Onsen Mori No Shiki

My worse onsen experiences traveling all over Japan so far. Old rooms, small and shabby bath and lack of facilities for the price we paid. The worse thing is not even these. We booked through trip.com. There is only selection of adding dinner and lunch without options of meal plan. We arrived and found out only our meal is different from the rest of all guests in the hotel. The horrible thing is breakfast. They gave us a rice ball breakfast box that looks dated for us to eat next morning. They certainly don’t”t care if their guests may get sick. We checked this hotel’s price on Japanese booking channel with meal plan selection and found out we are not paying any less to trip.com.

외국인 관광객을 위한 숙소가 아닌 일본 로컬의 그대로 느낌을 경험하기에 가성비 좋은 숙소 입니다. 후라노에서 신치토세로 돌아오는 마지막 밤 경로로 좋았습니다. 노천탕등은 없으니 온천은 기대 안하면 되고 사우나는 전세처럼 사용했고 낡았지만 구석구석 먼지없이 매우 깨끗하고 숲속 산장이라 겨울이어도 실내에 무당벌레등 자연과 함께하는점도 즐거웠습니다. 침구도 뽀송하고 스토브도 따듯하고 의외로 방 실내가 따듯해서 놀랬습니다. 주인 아저씨도 친절하시고 편안한 하룻밤! 간단한 일어가 가능한 외국인이라면 진짜 일본의 전통문화체험에 도전해보세요!

森の中にある鄙びた(?)宿です。かなやま湖の帰りに立ち寄り入浴しました。建屋に入って目に入ったのが『「薪」を焚いて温泉を沸かしています』との文字。土地柄間伐材等の入手が容易なのでしょう。この令和の時代に昭和の銭湯みたいに薪を焚いて沸かしていることに驚きです。浴室に小さなサウナはありましたが、露天風呂がないのは残念でした。良く温まり、お茶を頂いて後にしました。
