It's inside a hotspring hotel that we stayed at ^_^
the place is called 宏樂園, about 10min of drive from the tourist attraction area

you might want to look that up next time you visit
it's pretty good deal. about 13k yen a night, with indoor and outdoor hotspring. dinner and breakfast included (those food in the picture are dinner) so much food and so good >o< (my taste bud is very 遲鈍, but if I say it's good, that's mean it's very good!)

hahaha you should!
I definitely will go back visiting again

such a relaxing and beautiful place!

even when I was in tokyo last year in October, I didn't see much light being turned off

I was there 4 weeks ago ^^

I guess they had not fully recovered from the electricity supply during the time of your visit
everything was quite back to normal when I visited tokyo last October
