However, I would recommend for those who are low budget travelers but who are willing to take a break and rest in their amazing hot springs. They do have hiking trail, but it is the best not to go in the midst of rain. You will slip and get yourself all muddy. I learn that that hard way. You can walk around the town, but honestly, there is not too much to see aside from the church and cemenetry.The church had an interestingsaint with a sword in her hand. I would love to learn more about that. Other thing that I really like about this place is that hot springs are completely accessible, food being first class, and fireplace being readily available.It is a sleeper, and I recommended it. If there is any downside to it, they locked everything up until 7am. It means I (without a vehcile) cannot get out until 7am. It means I could miss my flight. The breakfasts are not ready until 830 am. However, everything is affordable, so this is a decent tradeoff. ##### Armando Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Michele Jul 20, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities … ##### Michele Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Diana May 14, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Me encanto volvería ##### Diana Stayed 1 night in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Aug 21, 2019 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The owners and staff were wonderful.
