Motoyu Geto

There are four open-air baths along the river, one women's bath that is a little higher up and looks like an open-air bath, and two indoor baths. The open-air baths have bubbles coming out from below, so they feel like they are coming from a hot spring, which makes you excited. However, the hottest bath was too hot for me to enter. The open-air baths are mixed and there are times for women, but they are one hour each in the morning and afternoon, so it was difficult to schedule, but in the end I enjoyed it when there were no people in the mixed bathing hours. Personally, I liked the "Shinyu" because it was spacious and had a nice view. When I went, I couldn't enter Me-no-yu, which is opposite Shinyu, because of snow damage. The washing area of ​​the indoor baths is a little on the cleanliness side, but you can't use soap in the open-air baths, so I had to put up with that, but the water in the indoor baths is perfect. I stayed in the ryokan section, but there was no air conditioner. There were screens on the windows, so I got by with the outside air and a fan. I closed the windows at night because I was worried about bugs, but the temperature dropped at night so it was manageable. The food was not particularly good. However, I ate everything both in the morning and at night. If you are going by rental car, the roads are very narrow so I recommend renting a small car. In any case, the water is very good, so I would like to go again.
