Hotel Yuou Onsen in Kofu City

Provides rooms for travellers who are on tight budget

The sofa set beside the bed feels cozy enough for the exhausted traveler.

The twin bedroom costs 8,000 Yen per night (for two people), fair enough for travelers who are on a tight budget.

I gave the toilet and bathroom a 3-stars-rating. It's not my ideal one, but it's fair enough for an over-night travel.

The entrance door and the closet are adjacent to each other.

Good gracious, there are no skeletons in their closet!

The sofa set is beside the sliding doors that led us to the balcony. Unfortunately, the view outside our room wasn't worth looking at.

A desk with a TV sits beside the closet.

Service hot water and green tea for us guests... LOVELY for a 39 degree Celsius temperature on a summer afternoon.

Welcome to the 3rd floor. This way to our room.

Before you descend the stairs to the second floor, you can see this...

Welcome to the guests' lounge!

You can even work out in the guests' lounge.

This is the hotel's front desk. They also provide free bicycles, by the way.

This is the entrance to the public bathroom. Once inside this small door, you will see a passage in both sides. The female onsen is towards the right, while the male onsen is on the opposite side.

Welcome to Hotel Yuou Onsen! This is the facade of the building.

The lockers before you go inside the onsen (public bath) room... (I really wanna take photos in the public bath room but sorry, they don't allow it).

Searching over the internet for affordable hotels in Kofu City, I happened to pass by Hotel Yuou Onsen where travelers can book a room without registering their credit card information. I found this convenient enough for a person like me who hates credit cards. I even got a good deal for a nice twin bedroom for only 8,000 yen per night without any booking fees. I gave them 5 points for this pro-customer booking system. As for the interior of the hotel rooms, though a bit old, is already good enough for travelers who are always on the go.
