About

A former school building in Nikaho, renovated into an inn with 16 rooms that also takes day visitors. The main baths come in two kinds, sulfur water and radium water, and the cold plunge is filled with sulfur water too, so you can go back and forth between hot and cold. There is a sauna and an open-air bath as well. The sulfur water changes with the day, and one visitor found it milky and sulfur-scented. Men's and women's baths swap on odd and even days. Meals are served at the restaurant Chikurin (竹林), and there is parking.
