Visited a place from my bucket list. The north delivers, and winter is already here. A reasonably priced ryokan that features a Nebuta sauna and Nebuta in the rotenburo. Inside everything is very cozy, all in wood, two baths at 42 and 39 degrees. Outside there's a rotenburo that extends into a small lake, but you can't go into the lake. Outside there's also a sauna entrance and a small cold bath. They feed you a buffet with all sorts of food, even ice cream. There's also a paid show — highly recommend, it's like a mini matsuri. *First photo is from the internet but the Nebuta figure is there on-site.
