The water quality of Ureshino Onsen is very unique and cannot be found in the other area. I touched my arms and legs in the bath and felt very smooth and soapy but the feeling disappeared once I went out of the bath. It means the water quality caused it.
People working at the hotel are friendly and welcoming. Near the lobby you can have beer,wine ,soft drinks,tea with some crackers, peanuts etc free of charge(of course the offering time is restricted so you might not need extra alcohol during the dinner. The town is small so you can walk around to enjoy the atmosphere. So far I liked Hijiori in Iwate and Nozawa in Nagano among many many hot springs in Japan and Ureshino joined  in my likings. I thank again for the reception people always smiling and informative!

We stayed at this ryokan to start our tour of Saga Prefecture in early November 2021. It was a Sunday, which traditionally is the best day of the week to stay as many have to work from Monday. Perhaps it was due to the increase of those working remotely from home, but the ryokan was almost full judging from the crowded parking space. Registration was quick and we were momentarily shown to our room facing the river flowing below and the hills on the back. We were warmly welcomed by the lady staff that accompanied us to the room and brought our welcome snack. It appeared all the ryokan staff were happy with the return of travelers, where a couple of weeks back they may have been more concerned of the pandemic. I had a quick bath in their onsen bath on the top floor before dinner. Dinner was served in our room, which has become customary since the rise of this pandemic. We had ordered their speciality, sukiyaki of Saga beef. This was composed of some excellent local specialties as appetizers and the main beef sukiyaki. Our server asked if we needed help with the sukiyaki which you need to cook for yourselves, to which we said yes. She put the vegetables and then meat into the pot, and advised that we could have the meat as soon as it turned color. She left the room, asking us to call her again for the rice and miso soup as well as dessert, once we were done with the main course. It was an excellent sukiyaki, not too much sweet. But there was so much beef, that we had very little room left for the rice, or the udon noodles you stew in the pot at the end. The facilities were clean, and the staff all very friendly. We had a most enjoyable stay.

The city is quite, I felt very relax. The size of room is large and you can dine in the room.  The dinner set is great and the hot spring at the top floor has both indoor and outdoor, you can watch the city view.
