Echigoya Inn

A small, old-fashioned inn in Muikamachi, a short walk from the station, run in the manner of a traditional hatago (旅籠), a travelers' lodging. The bath is lined with Showa-era tile, well kept despite its age, and the spring water runs kakenagashi (源泉掛け流し, fresh source water flowing through). The women's bath is on the small side. The inn is plain: shared toilets and washbasins, and not much in the way of amenities. Day visitors (higaeri nyuyoku, 日帰り入浴) are welcome, and there are a few parking spaces beside the building.
