Guest House Sunline Beppu

Hostel right on the waterfront with access to the promenade, about 15 minutes from Beppu main station. Looks like a renovated old inn. They have shared rooms and private rooms in classic style with tatami and futons, larger and smaller ones — we took one of the smaller private rooms. The room has a sink, toilet is on the floor (felt like we were the only ones on the floor). We set up the futons and bedding ourselves, no breakfast, but there's a cafe on the first floor with coffee, tea, and pastries. Large shared kitchen with dishes and fridges. 2 onsens — men's (orange) and women's (blue), they don't swap, plus a private one for 1000 yen (I only just found out about it, might have been closed). Shampoo, body wash, and hair dryers are provided. Higaeri available, 300 yen. Bath photos from the website, mostly matches, but things are a bit worn out now. Water composition translated from the website. The water was indeed hot, but they do dilute it — can't say to what temperature exactly.
