Hirayu Prince Hotel

This was a hotel that my son booked and I didn't have a choice of options... but there was no problem with the food, and I was able to spend my time there without any inconvenience, even though I was traveling alone. There were four private open-air baths and a large public bath, and it seems that there is no shampoo etc. for those who reserved the baths, so I went to the large public bath first, but... the floor of the washing area was dry and it was reserved for private use. The next morning, I also went to the private open-air bath, but... I left the hotel building, walked around Mizara for a while, and found a private open-air bath that looked like a "country farm hut" among rocks and trees 😎👍 It is a Japanese house 😅 with such a charm that when I closed the door of the dressing room, I felt like I had entered a country farm hut 😱. The water in both places was at the right temperature, and I enjoyed it by myself 💖 I wanted a small locker in the large public bath to put only a few valuables such as keys. Even though there were few people, I was still worried, so I went back to the front desk to leave my things. It's a shame that the vending machines are often sold out. However, there are hot spring inns everywhere in Okuhida Onsenkyo, and you can see them in the lobby trying their best even in the COVID-19 pandemic. I'm grateful to the Japanese tourism industry for allowing even an old lady like me to stay at a reasonable price and with peace of mind.
