I stayed in "Western style twin B". Each piece of furniture was unified with a retro atmosphere, and it was a very nice space. The bath is private, so you can relax without worrying about your surroundings. The Goemon bath, which draws water from the source, was not only comfortable, but also enjoyed the atmosphere, including the unique smell of iron.
