Hotel Shinayoshi

Brief review of Ryokan Shinayoshi - https://maps.app.goo.gl/M3HLXcCtLenyv4eG9 A "tired" but still functioning hotel-ryokan right on the shore of the sea and river in Izu-Atagawa. Few staff, everything is old, some things are a bit dirty. But there are pluses. Views from the rooms are amazing — right onto the sea on one side, and if it's a corner room, onto the river on the other. The onsens are hot and diverse, two large baths in different styles (jungle and stone) alternating between M/F every day. Two FREE kashikiri baths on the roof with sea views! First come, first served. The sauna is quite unique — just a room with onsen water flowing under the floor at around 100 degrees. Very-hot-and-humid. Cold bath available, but the water is warm unfortunately. Food is 6/10. Okay-ish, but the fresh local fish saves the day.
