How it scores
Every onsen on this site is scored on the same five things.
The baths
Indoor bath
The modern, working bathhouse of the village: undiluted source water with no added water, proper washing stations with taps and showers, and hairdryers in the changing room. This is the one of the pair you use if you actually want to wash. No amenities are provided, but towels, soap and shampoo are sold at the counter.
