Impression

Gomuso-no-yu is a small building made from concrete. The bathroom is small at 12 square meters. A bathtab and a floor are wooden. Since it's window is small, it is dark in the bathroom. However, as for me, it is glad that hot water is overflowing calmly from the bathtub in a quiet bathroom.

A bathtab is no vacancy in three persons. I was immediately soaked in hot water. The water is somewhat hot and is smooth. I shut the eye calmly and enjoyed hot water. The nature of the water of a hot spring is a calcium spring.

It is better to go there, after seeing the Hinatami yakusido. Although the view is not good, probably, you can enjoy hot water purely. Business hours are short even 3:00 p.m.
