Atami Ikyuan

The room was tidy and clean. We shared toilet and hot spring. The hot spring was awesome and we enjoyed 45 minutes there. This place was a worth staying hostel yet a bit far away from the JR station.

This is a traditional Japanese Ryokan style hotel. All instructions are in English however, means there are foreigners regularly staying here. There is a open air onsen (hot bath) which is very pleasant. Must be reserved in advance. Drinks can be bought at 200 yen a pop. This is a fully unmanned Ryokan meaning it self check in and self checkout ! The rooms are very small (4 meter square) which barely fits a bed. Pictures on the travel sites about the rooms in this hotel are deceiving ! The location is sort of OK from Kinomiya station but it's quite far from Atami city center and Atami sun beach . We took at taxi which was 1200 yen. Kinomiya Jinja is 25 minutes by foot.

房間真是太棒了！視野很好！可以看到日出！ いい部屋ですね、整間屋子走起來咯吱咯吱的，還有露天温泉，雖然比不上箱根的名湯，但要啥自行車啊，樓下的泳池無法使用就是了，但我都去海邊了跑啥泳池啊！下次去還訂他！
