How it scores
Every onsen on this site is scored on the same five things.
The baths
Indoor bath
Three communal bathhouses: 'Iyashi no Yakata', the all-hinoki-cypress 'Honoka no Yakata' (women) and the white-plaster 'Nagomi no Yu' (men). Source is Yunohana Onsen No.3 spring, a simple weak radioactive spring (hypotonic, neutral, low temperature) with radon.

About the day-pass link: Asoview is the main place day-use onsen in Japan sell entry tickets and discount coupons in advance. It is a Japanese-only site, so use your browser’s translation — you show the ticket on your phone at the door.

Why not the train: the last leg to an onsen is usually a local bus with nowhere to put a suitcase. A fixed-price car is booked in English and quoted before you travel, tolls and fuel included.
