If there were no guide signs along the way, it would be a worrying place. When I checked in around 6 p.m., a Tsugaru shamisen performance was being held in the lobby. It was a shame that I didn't know about it in advance. The bath at this time was crowded with many locals. I was surprised to see that there seemed to be a rule that you had to take your own basket, bathtub, and chair from the storage area each time and return them when you were done. At night, the open-air bath was too hot to take a long bath, but in the morning the indoor bath was too hot. However, Mt. Iwaki was visible between the clearing clouds, and the open-air bath had a great view. The meal was a creative kaiseki course meal, which was filling. There was a buffet in the morning, with unusual side dishes such as yakisoba soup. Unfortunately, it was cloudy so we couldn't go to the observatory, but a staff member came to the hotel and told us about various astronomy topics using a projector on the third floor. There is no denying that the room, including the beds, is old, but it was a hotel with great hospitality and attention to detail.
